Possessed No More: The True Star Returns to Claim Her Throne Chapter 83: Shopping

Riley Perry pinched Rhona’s rosy cheeks. "Of course it’s real. Would I lie to you?

But you can’t keep trying to lose weight. Being too skinny isn’t a good look either."

"I won’t, I won’t! Oh my gosh, I can already imagine how much our product will blow up once it hits the market. All of a sudden, I feel like we set the price way too low!"

Riley Perry: ’A bottle with thirty pills, a thirty-day supply, costs 2,888 yuan, and she thinks that’s cheap?’

’Of course, considering the miraculous effects of the diet pill, the price is actually a great value!’

The heavier a person is, the more dramatic the results!

"The product launch date is set. Is the marketing plan ready?"

"Ria, are you interested in endorsing our own product?"

Riley Perry thought for a mont, then waved her hand. "Better not. After all, I’ve never been overweight before, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for to suddenly endorse a diet pill. Promoting it is fine, though.

If we’re looking for a product spokesperson, Chloe Sterling would be a better fit than ."

’That girl has been video-calling her a lot lately. She’s lost at least a dozen pounds, and her face has slimd down a size, just like Rhona’s. She also has a few million fans, so having her endorse it would be perfect.’

’Their factory’s production capacity is low. If they hired a huge star, they’d probably sell out and run out of stock. Yep, she was just that confident!’

After spending over an hour at the office, the two of them got ready to go shopping. Rhona, who was used to riding shotgun, opened the passenger door. But when she saw that the driver was Samson Sinclair, her face instantly fell. With a SLAM, she shut the door, turned around, and got into the back seat.

Riley Perry: ’...Sothing’s going on with these two.’

"What’s wrong? Why’d you slam the door? Got a problem with my car? Is it not fancy enough for you?" Riley Perry gave Rhona a teasing look.

Rhona glared fiercely at Samson Sinclair in the driver’s seat.

’A chill ran down Samson Sinclair’s back. He grumbled internally, ’Miss Perry’s assistant sure can hold a grudge. Wasn’t it just because I didn’t drive her to the airport that one ti? I even paid for her ride—it cost over twenty thousand yuan!’’

’Was that money just wasted?’

"Did he offend you?"

Rhona huffed. "Hmph, as if *he* could offend **! I just don’t like the look of him! Ria, I don’t think this driver of yours is any good. Why don’t I find you a replacent?"

Riley Perry: ’With a pout like that, you’re still going to claim he didn’t do anything to offend you?’

Samson Sinclair glanced back in the rearview mirror. ’Not any good? Oh, I’m plenty good.’

’Whatever. He was the bigger person; he wouldn’t stoop to bickering with that brat.’

’Still, how did she do it? How did she get so thin in such a short ti?’

"Miss Perry, where are we heading next?"

"Let’s browse around the mall, and then we’ll find a place for lunch."

She needed to buy so things to prepare for the adventure-thed reality show she was joining.

Samson Sinclair drove them to a mall owned by the Sinclair Group.

"Samson, co with us. I’m joining an adventure-thed reality show next week and need to buy so gear. You can help pick things out."

Samson: "Yes, Miss Perry."

Rhona shot him another glare. "He’s just a driver, what does he know? You have , your assistant, right here. Why would you need him?"

Samson Sinclair remained silent. He never forgot that he was Miss Perry’s bodyguard. The young master had ordered him to protect her, and everyone else was irrelevant.

Riley Perry’s smile was so wide her dimples appeared. "Well then, we can just have him carry our bags for us. That’s fine, right?"

Rhona let out a cold hmph and finally fell silent.

’For Ria’s sake, I won’t lower myself to that bastard’s level.’

Samson: ...

The three of them took the elevator to the outdoor supplies floor. With Samson around, all Riley Perry had to do was nod her approval. He picked out two sets of shell jackets, a dagger, insect repellent, military-style biscuits, an axe, a hamr... and so on. It all added up to a massive pile, but Samson was an expert packer. He managed to fit everything into one large backpack. It looked heavy—and it really was—but for Riley Perry, it was nothing.

The strength of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator was far beyond that of an ordinary person.

It was still before eleven o’clock when they finished buying the gear. Riley Perry dragged Rhona around the mall so more, ordering a good deal of furniture for her new ho. She also picked out plenty of clothes and costics for her family, as well as an electronic learning device for her younger brother. Once she bought everything, she had it all shipped ho.

As noon approached, a call ca from Cole Sinclair. The man was a true workaholic; instead of relaxing on the weekend, he had gone to the office to work overti.

"Co have lunch with ."

’Riley Perry turned away and rolled her eyes. ’This clueless guy deserves to be alone forever with no one to love him!’’

Though she thought this, the words that ca out of her mouth were sweet and coy. "But I’ve already made plans to get seafood hot pot with my assistant, and we’re a little far from your office. Why don’t you just eat on your own? We have spa treatnts to get to after we eat."

Cole Sinclair: "...You really don’t want to co?" ’His little lover had been a bit rebellious lately, not even willing to join him for a al at the office anymore.’

Riley Perry: "Oh, co on. I want to save my energy so I can get all dolled up to attend the reception with you tonight. You’ll just have to eat by yourself today."

With that, she hung up.

Cole Sinclair stared at the black screen of his phone, his own face even darker.

’He swore he wouldn’t speak to her for the rest of the day!’

Rhona’s jaw dropped in astonishnt. "Ria, are you sure that was okay? Your guy... he’s really not going to be mad?"

Riley Perry wagged her index finger at Rhona. "NO. He’s not ’my guy.’ He’s just my patron, and we need to be clear on that. We only have a one-year contract, and it’s already been over two months. In another nine months or so, when the contract ends, we’ll have nothing to do with each other. He won’t even be my patron anymore."

Rhona: ’That’s what makes your attitude so weird! He’s your patron!’

"Okay, okay, let’s go! Ti for hot pot! I’ll have Samson bring the car around. My treat today, we’re going to De Ge Hot Pot. I’ve seen it so many tis on social dia. The snowflake beef and the geoduck look so fresh and delicious. I’m going to eat my fill today!"

The re ntion of food got Riley Perry excited, and Rhona was just as thrilled. Before, she couldn’t eat freely because she had to watch her weight. But now, she could eat whatever she wanted, so of course she was going to indulge. And so, the two of them, along with their driver, went to feast at De Ge Hot Pot.

Of course, Rhona still couldn’t stand the sight of Samson, just as always. But a single sentence from Riley Perry instantly put her at ease. "With him here, we can order a few extra dishes. If we can’t finish everything, he can take care of the leftovers. We can’t waste food, after all."

’Actually, it would be even better if Cole Sinclair were here,’ she thought. ’Then I could order a couple more juices in different flavors.’

’Samson ate in silence. ’Did Miss Perry forget I’m sitting right here?’ he wondered. ’I can hear everything they’re saying.’’

’Whatever, I’ll just eat. Honestly, since he started working for Miss Perry, the biggest change was that his three daily als were now relatively on schedule. He could actually eat his fill without having to rush.’

Previously, when he was with the young master, he and the others had to take turns eating whenever they could find a spare mont. Sotis, when things got too busy, they might not get to eat at all.
