"Are you going shopping this afternoon?" Nora asked, standing next to the elevator.
"Let's go." The girls stood up one after another.
"Where are Mia and Michelle?" Nora asked.
"They are playing VR games in your entertainment room," said Medea.
"Okay." Nora opened the cabinet door next to her, revealing dozens of glass compartments with built-in lights, each containing a handbag.
Although no one can recognize their brands, you can guess that they can't be cheap stuff.
"If you want to go out, pick a bag from here and go." Nora said with a smile, "This way, when you enter a luxury store, you won't be stopped by the clerk at the door~"
Girls: …
"Then we'll return it to you after we come back." Seeing that everyone was speechless, Eleanor smiled and tried to smooth things over, "We're just borrowing it temporarily while we're out."
"If you like them, you can keep them." Nora smiled softly, "These bags are actually not expensive..."
Stop it, Nora! Everyone shed tears of poverty in their hearts.
After everyone picked a bag, Nora took out five black and gold credit cards from her trouser pocket as if performing magic, handed them to everyone and said with a smile:
"Each of you should take one and use it. Some shopping malls out there don't accept cash payments."
"What is this?" Eleanor asked. She had never seen a credit card before.
"Credit card." Nora explained patiently, "It's linked to my account. When you shop, give it to the clerk and you can pick up the goods after swiping it. The money will be automatically deducted from the account next month."
"It's okay. I'll teach you how to operate it later." Seeing Eleanor's difficulty, Sheila smiled and said, "By the way, Nora, how much is the balance on the card?"
"Uh, I forgot." Nora said embarrassedly, "Anyway, just go ahead and spend it. I don't think I'll be overdrawn."
Ah, so it means unlimited credit, right? Sheila understood. That's it.
…Unlimited amount?!
She suddenly felt melancholy, remembering when she first ascended the throne of the Eastern Solomon Empire, she was worried about the deficit on the financial statements. If she had known Nora earlier, she could have borrowed money from her...
No, I can’t think about it anymore. I’m so heartbroken that I can’t breathe.
"Why are there only five?" Medea asked curiously, "Me, Eleanor, Sheila, Peggy, Sidlifa..."
"Of course I have one myself," said Nora.
"Okay." Medea waved to Peggy, "Stop shaking, he's asleep, let's go."
Peggy looked at Ask reluctantly, then trotted over quickly.
The girls went out laughing.
Only Ask remained in the rocking chair, still sleeping.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a voice sounded.
"Mr. Ask, Mr. Ask?"
"Hmm..." Ask slowly sat up from the rocking chair, and saw Nora's old butler standing in front of him, handing him a hot towel.
After wiping his face with a hot towel, Ask handed the towel back to him and said, "Thank you."
