Dear Sweetheart Chapter 188 A Stone In The Shape Of A Heart
Jefferson surreptitiously kissed Rayna on the cheek.
You know what? No matter how lovely the scenery, you’re thousand times more beautiful!
When the watch on his wrist started beeping, he launched the parachute. Their bodies swayed slightly as he steered the parachute toward the golden wheat field.
After they had landed on the path beside the wheat field, Rayna felt a touch reluctant to end the adventure. “Are we done already?”
“Shall we do it again?”
“No, no!” Rayna hastily backed away. Gosh, I don’t want to humiliate myself by shrieking like a banshee again!
She loved the field of golden wheat, so she snapped a few photos. No sooner had she gotten ready to leave with Jefferson than a few drops of rain fell on her face. On the heels of that, the heavens opened.
Stripping off his jacket, Jefferson held it over her head. The two of them sprinted madly in search of a place that could provide them shelter from the rain.
The rain was pouring so heavily that the jacket wasn’t of much use, and they were both drenched. When they finally found shelter under the eaves, they looked at each other before bursting into laughter.
Rayna pointed at his glasses and crowed, “Hah! You can’t see anymore, huh?”
“Yeah, somewhat.” Taking off his glasses, Jefferson wiped the lenses with the hem of his shirt.
Without his glasses, his features softened considerably, appearing just like a young lad who had just graduated from university.
“No wonder so many girls like you. You’re impeccably handsome. If I had your looks, I’d definitely carry myself proudly,” Rayna lamented.
“Do you like me, then?”
“Why isn’t the rain ceasing?” Rayna muttered, whirling around at lightning speed as though she hadn’t heard him.
At once, Jefferson’s lips pressed into a thin line.
A few minutes later, it finally stopped raining. The two of them went to the side of the road and took a taxi back.

Neither of them said a single word.
Jefferson had the driver make a stop at the shopping mall, planning to buy Rayna a change of clothes so she could get out of her wet garments. Just when they entered the shop, he received a phone call. Daily new chapters upload Only On Alaniniz(dot)com Thus, he urged Rayna to go in first while he went to the corner to take the call.
Feeling ill at ease in soaked clothes, Rayna took two shirts as soon as she stepped into the shop. Just as she was going to head to the fitting room, a salesperson came over and snatched away the clothes in her hand.
At the sight of her in such a pathetic state, disdain and contempt brimmed in the salesperson’s eyes. “We’re a renowned international brand, so our clothes are very expensive, miss. Go and look for clothes elsewhere.”
Following that, a frown marred Rayna’s countenance. “I just want to buy some clothes.”
Growing impatient, the salesperson snapped, “I’ve told you that you can’t afford to buy this brand of ours! This shopping street is lined with famous brands. Go over to the adjacent street instead. The clothes there are cheap.”
“Are you looking down on me?”
In response, the salesperson flashed her a fake smile. “Of course not. It’s just that our prices are too high, so they aren’t suited for you.”
Rayna glowered at her with a frosty expression.
That was the first time she bumped into such a salesperson while shopping, acting all high and mighty while looking down upon others.
At that exact moment, Jefferson, who had concluded his phone call, walked in. When he saw that Rayna was still standing around, he inquired, “What’s wrong? You might catch a cold if you stay in wet clothes for too long. Go and choose a change of clothes.”
“Are you both together, sir?”
The instant the salesperson glimpsed the brand of his shirt, her expression promptly changed. Turning around, she asked Rayna ingratiatingly, “What style do you like, miss?”
“Didn’t you just say that the clothes here aren’t suited for me?” Rayna sneered.
“Uh… Well…” The salesperson broke into a cold sweat.
Frowning, Jefferson questioned Rayna, “Did she make things difficult for you?”
Rayna grunted in assent before narrating, “I came in to take a look at the clothes here, but she walked over and snatched them out of my hands. Then, she said they were a renowned brand that I couldn’t afford, so I should go to the adjacent street to shop instead.”
Hearing that, Jefferson chuckled coldly. “You’ve got quite the nerve for a salesperson! Call your manager here!”
At his words, sheer panic swamped the salesperson, and she fervently apologized to Rayna. “I’m sorry, miss! The blame is on me. I shouldn’t have said that!”
“My girlfriend doesn’t need your apology, so shut up.” Without showing her any mercy, Jefferson summoned another salesperson over and ordered her to call the store manager. The subsequent salesperson hurriedly rang the manager up.
In just a few minutes, a blond beauty strode into the shop. Her uniform was a darker shade than the average salesperson, and she appeared exceedingly elegant.
After learning about the entire incident, the blond beauty bowed and apologized to both Jefferson and Rayna. That aside, she even promised to gift the latter a lifelong VIP membership that would qualify her for a ten percent discount on all merchandise.
Seeing that she was sincere and even offered a discount, Rayna was just going to let the matter slide.
However, Jefferson was of a different opinion. He said to the manager, “I’m not strapped for cash, nor do I want your VIP membership. Her words hurt my girlfriend and also displeased me.”
“What can I do that would satisfy you, sir?”
“Fire her.”
The salesperson apologized desperately and even dropped to her knees, but Jefferson remained unmoved.
As such, the manager had no choice but to dismiss the salesperson on the spot. Only then did Jefferson’s expression ease. He then dragged Rayna out of the shop and crossed the road to Valentino on the opposite side.
The salesperson there was much better than the one at the previous shop. The moment they stepped into the shop, she went up to them and asked whether they required any help. Her tone was amicable, making them feel welcomed.
Jefferson pushed Rayna forward and said to the salesperson, “Take out all the newest styles this season and let her have her pick. We’d like to see the gowns as well.”
Rayna snapped her head back at him. “Why should I buy a gown?”
Alas, Jefferson didn’t answer that but merely stepped aside. Seven or eight salespersons surrounded Rayna with clothes of myriad styles in hand, the selections so vast that she was at a loss for choice.
