Chapter 51 The Mistress

Sophia nodded with a sarcastic grin. "Sure, I'll buy it for you. Wouldn't want you to leave empty-handed and embarrassed."

Emily shot a glance at Abigail, and they shared a knowing look, a hint of mischief in their eyes. Emily then turned to Sophia with a smile. "Alright, since you're feeling generous today, I won't hold back."

Sophia smirked. "No need to be shy. Pick whatever you want. As a housewife, you probably don't have much cash lying around. Has Michael even given you any money?"

Emily paused while browsing the jewelry, then replied, "Yeah, for housewives like us, there are only two reasons for being broke. Either the husband is useless and can't make money, or he's too good at making money and spends it all on his mistress. Which one do you think I am?"

Sophia caught the jab in Emily's words. Her smile faltered, but she kept it up. "Emily, no need to get snarky. Just a friendly reminder. Has Michael really not given you any money?" She pulled out a VIP card and waved it. Emily instantly recognized it as one of Michael's cards.

Emily felt a sting but kept her cool. "Alright, since you're offering, I'll pick something."

She pointed to a counter. "Wrap up everything on this counter for me." Then she pointed at Sophia. "This lady will pay."

The jewelry on that counter was worth tens of thousands of dollars. The salesperson's eyes widened. "Really? Ma'am, are you sure you want all of these?"

Sophia's face turned pale. "No way."

Emily looked at her. "What? Didn't you say you'd buy them for me? Are you backing out now?"
