Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1556

"Lena," Chris said as he gazed at her. "What's on your mind?"

Sasha snapped back to reality and instinctively tugged her sleeve down to hide the black butterfly tattoo on her wrist.

"I-I'd like to go for a walk." She smiled. "Chris, could we head to the shopping mall?"

Chris was taken aback. Lena seemed entirely different today.

Usually content, Lena wasn't into shopping or splurging on clothes or cosmetics. Fun activities that most girls enjoyed didn't seem to interest her.

She had never suggested a trip to the shopping mall before!

Chris felt a sense of reluctance but studied her closely. She was still Lena, yet somehow not quite herself.

"What's bothering you, Chris?" Sasha tried to mimic Lena, even moving closer as if to hold his hand. "Don't you want to take me there?"

"Of course." He smiled but discreetly withdrew his hand. "Let's go."

He led her to DL Mall. Sasha was awestruck by the elegant decor, with well-trained staff greeting them upon arrival and even the manager extending a personal welcome. Everywhere she looked, there were high-end international luxury items that glittered like diamonds, boosting her vanity.

Many were limited editions and required more than just money to acquire. Some brands cared about their clientele's background, making them inaccessible to outsiders. Sasha's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Despite Southeast Aciatic's prosperity, it couldn't hold a candle to this. In her past life there, she was part of the lower class, with a bit of money but no social status. She had never experienced such daily luxury.

Thinking of how Lena could live like this daily with Chris ignited a venomous jealousy that seemed to snake through her every nerve.

"Which handbag catches your eye, Lena?" Chris suddenly asked.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she turned quickly to face him, suppressing her thoughts.

The bags were designer pieces, and only one of each design was available.

In Southeast Aciatic, only royalty could lay claim to this brand.

She nearly blurted out, "I want—"

However, she remembered the photos Zachary had given her and Lena's true nature. She smiled at Chris and shook her head.

He seemed relieved now.

Yes, that was his Lena. But what had caused that hint of greed he had seen in her eyes earlier?

Sasha asked, "Chris, should we explore some other things?"

"Hmm, sure." He smiled. "You're in charge today."

"You're so kind to me..."

"You silly!" Chris patted her shoulder. "I'm your boyfriend. Who else should I treat well if not you?"

She bit her lip, feeling a knot in her chest.

She imitated Lena's little gesture, playing with her bangs, twirling them with her finger, and tucking them behind her ear.

Chris watched her quietly-it was something Lena often did indeed.

He grinned. "Your bangs have gotten a bit long, haven't they?"

She replied softly, "Hmm... Yes."

"Should I trim them for you?"

"Huh?"

"Shall we stick to our old rules?"
