Chapter 673
Tyler’s words didn’t just stun the saleslady. Even Rachel’s body stiffened with shock.
The saleslady’s gaze shifted awkwardly between Tyler and Rachel.
She had seen her fair share of men buying perfumes for their affair partners, but this was her first time seeing one bring his girlfriend along while buying perfume for another woman.
Rachel returned to the matter at hand. “Yes, it’s for a radiant and poised woman. Give me your best
recommendation.”
The saleslady forced a smile on her face, pitying Rachel from within. She then started introducing them to one of the collections.
Two other salespeople stood at the cashier counter and started gossiping under their breath.
“Men are getting bolder nowadays! They used to bother keeping their affairs a secret. They’d bring the other woman to shop behind their wives‘ backs. I’ve never seen someone as bold as this guy!”
“Exactly! But he’s so handsome. I’d want to marry him if I were a woman.”
“I think that lady next to him looks good, too. She’s beautiful–totally my cup of tea. Her cold and distant
aura feels so different from other women.”
“I agree. Her presence makes everyone else fade into the background. I seldom see someone with such an
aura.”
“But beautiful women often lead wretched lives. Men buy gifts for their affair partners behind their wives ‘backs, but she’s got it way worse. Her boyfriend’s blatantly bringing her to pick a gift for his affair
partner.”
“Well, what else can she do? That’s how the world is becoming nowadays. You must be prepared to suffer like this if you want a rich boyfriend.”
“You said it.”
Tyler overheard every word from the two salespeople’s conversation as the saleslady attending to him was introducing them to a perfume collection.
He whispered into Rachel’s ear, “Why do salespeople love gossiping so much? Should I explain things to
them?”
“No need.”
Rachel grumbled inwardly, Was Tyler truly clueless as to why those two salespeople said what they said about them? It was all because of the deliberately suggestive answer he gave to the saleslady’s question
earlier!

He blatantly claimed to be buying a perfume for another woman when he appeared to be shopping with
his girlfriend.
Who wouldn’t think in that direction?
Tyler stared at Rachel’s flawless side profile, drawing so close he could even see the fine hair on her skin. Yet, he didn’t see any change in her face; it remained calm and composed.
He didn’t know whether her non–combative nature was a good thing or not.
By right, men should appreciate women who don’t kick up a fuss. Yet, he somehow felt uncomfortable with her underwhelming reaction.
The saleslady introduced Rachel to some perfumes. She tried a few different bottles and finally placed three in front of Tyler.
“Try them yourself. See which suits her better.”
