Chapter 9 Princess Syndrome

"My sister is coming home with a boyfriend, and if I can't come home with a girlfriend, my time is coming." Henry can handle military affairs, but he can't handle his own life affairs.

Go to Henry's house for dinner?

Bailey felt a bit nervous. She was going to be bombarded by a bunch of House of Morris relatives and friends, and she was not Henry's official girlfriend. She was just a makeshift shield.

"I don't lie, what if something goes wrong?" Not to mention going to House of Morris, even now Bailey's palms were starting to sweat slightly.

"Isn't there me?" "If you have a problem and you can't answer it, just throw yourself into my arms, blushing, and I'll come to your rescue," Henry said with a mischievous smile.

"Henry, can you be more serious?"

"Well, well, you just look pretty. I'll handle the interrogation."

Henry, this smooth-talking, bewitching handsome man, left Bailey at a loss. Every time she bickered with him, it was bound to end in her complete defeat.

"Alvin will drive you to pick out clothes in a moment." Henry placed a credit card in Bailey's hand.

What era is it? Who has to go to a physical store for shopping, tired of walking, tired of choosing? Go to an e-commerce platform, just search and find out what clothes you don't have in a minute.

"No matter how good the quality of ready-to-wear clothes is, they are not as fine as custom-made ones. There's not much time left. You'd better hurry up." The House of Morris is a regular customer of this store, and Henry wears his usual clothes from here.

When it comes to tailoring, Bailey knows that the price of clothes can't be cheap. What if his credit card is maxed out? She was hesitant.

"If you Max out your card, stay in the store and wait for me to redeem you." It was an unlimited overdraft card, and she could Max it out. Did she think she was a superhero Saiya?

At this moment, Tessa's medical expert team came in to carry out their daily routine ward rounds. This ended the conversation between Henry and Bailey.

Alvin sent Bailey to the clothing store while Henry sat lazily in his wheelchair, waiting for the elevator.

Suddenly, the wheelchair moved and someone pushed it from behind.

Henry saw that it was Carl.

Henry narrowed his eyes slightly and a sneer appeared on his lips.

Carl, like himself, was a soldier, divided into different factions within the army. They met with smiles on their faces and were on guard in their hearts.

"Have you not recovered yet?" With a large square face and thick black eyebrows, Carl's appearance is more in line with the rugged and tough military character than Henry's fine and handsome looks.

"I'm getting worse and worse. When my physical strength is not good, I need to use a wheelchair to walk." Henry shook his head and sighed.

Carl thought to himself that the special service mission had earned Henry military merit and the rank of major colonel, and at the same time, it had caused him to contract AIDS due to an accident, which was like having his top stained with blood. He glanced at the major's insignia on his shoulder out of the corner of his eye, feeling no resentment.

"You are too modest. The Sky Survey fighter has just succeeded in its test flight, and you have achieved a new feat."Carl sighed.

"You're really smart." Just two days after the successful test flight, before the official announcement was made, Carl got the news, which was somewhat unexpected to Henry, but not completely unimaginable.

As soon as the elevator arrived, Carl pushed Henry's wheelchair in and smiled gently, "Come to my place if you have the chance. We haven't talked for a long time."

"I'm in good health and will go." The elevator door closed slowly and Henry waved to Carl.

Carl's smile vanished in an instant as he watched the elevator door close completely. Then, with a wave, he called Keith, who was hiding in the corner, over.

"Did you see it clearly?" Carl asked.

Keith nodded. Carl had just pushed the wheelchair to an Angle that allowed him to take a clear picture of Henry.

"You know what to do." Carl slapped Keith on the shoulder, turned and strode away.

No sooner had Carl left than Keith's phone rang.

"Where are you? Come here right now." Paula's crying voice came through the receiver, "There's a stinky woman here who's bullying me."

Paula, who is used to being spoiled and domineering, is already good enough not to bully others, and today she is being bullied. This is a completely new thing.

Keith, not daring to be negligent, rushed out of the hospital and took a taxi to Paula's ready-to-wear store.

Keith would accompany Paula to the ready-to-wear store every now and then to buy new clothes. Three days later, Paula was going to meet Keith with her family, so Paula came to the store to pick out clothes.

When Paula arrived, there was already a female customer here. Paula is a VIP customer of the ready-to-wear store, so there is a dedicated salesperson to accompany her with her shopping. After picking and choosing for a long time, Paula picked out five styles of clothes and asked the ready-to-wear store to sew them to her body size.

Little did they know that the other clothes were ready for three days, which was not a big problem. However, there was only one long pink lace petal dress that the ready-to-wear store couldn't deliver on time.

"This customer also ordered this dress and said it would be ready in three days." The salesperson of the ready-to-wear store explained to Paula with a big smile. Since the store is a high-end bespoke clothing shop, each ready-to-wear maker only makes one specific style and does not take on any other styles. So Paula couldn't take the evening dress order from this female customer at the same time.

Paula glanced at the woman, who had long hair flowing over her shoulders, a pretty face, and a neat and simple appearance, but it was easy to tell that the clothes she was wearing were all cheap and common.

A commoner is a poor person, isn't he?

I really don't know how such a person would dare to enter this high-end ready-to-wear store where a set of clothes is priced at over ten thousand.

Paula went over and asked her to turn down the ready-to-wear order and give herself the chance.

"I didn't let you give up for free. How about two hundred dollars in transfer fee?" Paula thought she was pretty cool.

Unexpectedly, she was flatly rejected by the female guest.

Paula not only had the life of a princess, but also the illness of a princess. How could she bear this? She quarreled with the female customer. As a result, she was no match for her bickering.

Paula called for reinforcements and called Keith over with a phone call.

When Keith received the call, he got out of his taxi in a hurry and ran into the ready-to-wear store.

"Keith, it was she who bullied me." When Paula saw her lover arrive, her eyes welled up with tears and she threw herself into Keith's arms.

When Keith looked at the man Paula was referring to, he froze.

Bailey! ?
