Chapter 34 – What women should do
Joanna and Violet went shopping after the meal with Violet’s brother. He left after seeing the bodyguard and knowing his sister would be safe but was saddened to hear about Joanna’s marriage, wondering why he didn’t meet her before her husband.
Joanna could not get over Alex’s visit to her mother throughout her entire shopping spree, wondering if her mother’s obsession with Alex’s father was the reason why she was so happy to have him around.
"Joan, why are you buying so many things from different shops? I mean, I can sponsor you to a certain extent, but that diamond necklace costs a million. Isn’t your husband broke?"
Violet loved to spoil herself but still had limits to her expenditure. Joanna portrayed herself as the keeper, so Violet expected her to be more responsible.
"He’s not, and also, we are going to have a wedding, so be ready to be the maid of honor," Joanna revealed casually and continued shopping for the most expensive items.
These were things she would have never looked at twice if Alex had not upset her with his annoying display of money.
He kept reminding her that money was not a problem, so why should she be worried about her spending for their wedding?
The wedding planner could take care of the event, but she was going to take care of everything she wanted to wear on her body, including that of her maid of honor.
"Wait, you mean your hubby is secretly rich?" Violet found this interesting, wondering what Logan would feel about this since Joanna had not let her in on the details.
This was not something she had to say. Everything would be revealed on the day of the wedding, so she had to look her best.
"On our wedding day, you will know more, so pick anything you want for personal use, the wedding, and whatnot," she waved dismissively like the rich woman she was. Her weekly allowance was already too much for her, and she planned on putting it into investments.
