Chapter 90
While Joyce was still in shock, Alisha could not help but ask, “Ms. Gainsford, do you know what Mr. Halton likes?”
“I just roughly know what the seniors will like,” Elaina said.
Alisha thought so too. Elaina probably did not even know Nitzan, so how could she know what he liked?
However, Jalen, who was standing next to Elaina, did not think so.
During the two years of marriage, although he did not meet Elaina, Nitzan had seen her a lot. So it was not strange for Elaina to know what Nitzan liked.
Jalen was looking at Elaina, but she ignored Jalen’s gaze. She pulled Joyce and walked out. “Let’s go and buy a gift.”
“Okay.” Joyce nodded and politely waved at Jalen and Alisha. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Just as they were about to leave the shop, Alisha suddenly said, “Jalen. About Mr. Halton’s birthday, have you invited Ms. Gainsford to participate?”
Hearing this, Elaina, who had walked to the door, stopped.
She wanted to attend Nitzan’s birthday banquet. After all, Nitzan was good to her. But they did not invite her, so she had no reason to go there.
“Ms. Gainsford is busy. I think she has no time to go.” In the end, Jalen still did not have the courage to invite her. In front of so many people, he really did not want Elaina to quarrel with him.
Alisha showed a look of pity and said, “That’s a pity.”
Elaina didn’t listen to what the two said. After Jalen said that, she took Joyce out of the shop and disappeared from their sight.
Outside the shop, Joyce felt that Elaina was unhappy and asked in a low voice, “Elaina, do you want to attend Mr. Halton’s birthday party? If you want to go, I can take you with me.”
“No, thanks.”
Elaina shook her head. Although Joyce wanted to help Elaina, Elaina was in an awkward position. It might cause Joyce trouble.
Seeing Elaina refuse, Joyce did not insist.
Not long after, Elaina brought Joyce to a gallery. The two of them walked in.
“What can I do for you?” the salesman came forward and greeted them warmly.
Elaina glanced at him and then said, “Is Corbin here?”
“Yes, please wait a moment. I will go and call the boss.” The salesman was surprised. He did not expect this beautiful girl in front of him to know his boss.
The boss had once told him that if a girl directly called Corbin’s name and came to find Corbin, he could not trifle with her, and he must inform the boss.
After the salesman left, Elaina and Joyce waited in the rest area.
“Elaina, is the owner here your friend?” Joyce asked curiously.
Elaina thought about it and finally shook her head. “Not really. He is my teacher’s friend.”
Joyce said, “Oh.” She did not know who Elaina’s teacher was, but she felt that the teacher must be very powerful and mysterious.
Not long after, Corbin came out from the inner room. When he saw Elaina sitting in the rest area, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He then asked, “Little girl, why did you come to find me today?”
“Corbin, I came here today to help my friend choose a gift for someone.” As she spoke, she said in a small voice, “It’s a gift for Mr. Halton’s birthday.”
Corbin immediately understood. After Corbin whispered a few words into the salesman’s ear, the salesman turned around and entered the inner room. Corbin chatted with Elaina and said, “How is your teacher? When does he plan to come to New York?”
Elaina smiled and said, “He is good. He exercises every day. As for when he will come to New York, I don’t know.”
