Chapter 714

Joshua's timely arrival had made him something of a lifesaver for her.

He paused for a few seconds before speaking. "To be honest, I'm a bit of a disaster when it comes to taking care

of myself. If you really want to thank me, Ms. Cameron, maybe you could letmooch a few meals off you

sometwhen you're free."

He hesitated, then added, "And-"

Stella, not wanting to owe anyone a favor, asked, "And what else?"

Joshua grinned. "I'm not a fan of shopping for clothes, and I'm hopeless at picking them out. You have great

taste, Ms. Cameron-could you helpchoose a few outfits?"

Her wrist was a little scraped up, and to avoid infection, she couldn't get it wet for now; so cooking dinner that

night was out of the question.

Since she was free that afternoon anyway, she agreed.

"Alright. Do you have tnow? If you're not busy, we could go right away."

Joshua nodded. "Sure."

Stella brought Joshua to a high-end boutique she used to frequent.

She'd often chere before, picking out clothes for Keen O'Brien and Haynes.

Now, with Joshua having just saved her and money not being an issue these days she naturally wanted to take

him somewhere nice.

The moment they stepped inside, a sales associate greeted them warmly.

"Welcome!"

But when she recognized Stella, her smile grew even brighter.

"Oh, Ms. Cameron! It's been a while. Are you here to pick out clothes for your husband and son again? We just

got a lovely new collection in yesterday-would you like to take a look?"

Stella was a valued customer here. Though she dressed simply, her purchases were always

extravagant-she only ever chose the best. Judging from the sizes and styles she bought, most of the staff

assumed she was married with a child. They often speculated among themselves is Cameron must have married

well. They didn't know how old her husband was, but going by the sizes, he had to be tall-at least six foot two-

and in great shape.

A wealthy husband who could keep himself that fit? Even if he was a little older, most of the staff would happily

trade places with her But afas, none of them were as beautiful as Ms. Cameron, so such fantasies could only

remain that—fantasies.

Stella spoke up. "Actually, I'm here to help a friend pick out sclothes."

She turned and gestured behind her. "Could you help this gentleman find a few things that would suit him?"

The moment the sales associate laid eyes on Joshua, a flicker of surprise and admiration crossed her face.

My God, what a handsman!

He caught her gaze and offered a polite, friendly smile. "Thank you for your help, miss."

Flustered, she quickly composed herself. "Oh, it's no trouble at all.....”

She ushered them further inside, introducing different styles and fabrics, all the while sneaking glances at

Joshua.

A friend? She wasn't sure she bought that were they really just friends? Between a man and a woman, things

were rarely that simple, especially when the man looked like he'd just walked off a college campus.

Could he be... Ms. Cameron's secret lover? The thought seemed plausible. He looked like a recent graduate, after

all.

With the associate's suggestions, Stella picked out over a dozen outfits.

"Joshua, why don't you try these on? If none of them feel right, we'll pick out sothers."

Joshua didn't stand on ceremony. "Alright."

The sales associate watched as Stella shopped with the slavish abandon as always, secretly amazed. Could

it be she wasn't wealthy because of a man? Maybe

She was the one calling net?

shots-and her so-called husband and son depended on herinstead? That would explain how effortlessly she spent

money, always going for the best.
