Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 674

Glancing up and seeing Roseanne, a smile instantly lit up his usually expressionless face.

Roseanne was thinking about choosing shoes for the elderly gentleman, so naturally, it wasn't just about the style but comfort too.

Yet, comfort shouldn't overshadow style either.

She remembered once seeing an elderly man at the bookstore, leaning on a cane, dressed in a three- piece suit, his hair perfectly combed, exuding the aura of an English gentleman from head to toe. Clearly, he was someone who valued his appearance.

So, picking out the right pair took Roseanne a bit more time.

Leather was the material of choice for shoes, and she selected the two most comfortable types, asking the sales associate to bring out shoes made from those leathers.

Meanwhile, Owen Reynolds excused himself to use the restroom.

Soon after, Roseanne had chosen two pairs.

"I think either of these would work, Mr. Sullivan. Why don't you pick one?" she suggested.

Corley simply pulled out his card: "Why pick? Let's get both. If you chose them, the old man will definitely love them.

Roseanne couldn't believe it: "Really? Is it that exaggerated?"

"Just wait until you meet the grandparents yourself, and you'll see how highly they think of you."

"I'd love to meet them; they seem so kind..."

Corley's gaze softened momentarily.
