chapter 31 Make-up

“Dad, are we going to buy clothes for mom?” Paddy runs excitedly in the front and pulls the sleeves of Antony. Antony then stops there and turns back to see Helen standing behind, he then says to her seriously:”Miss Brown can be so economical, i’m afraid she might not like such place.” Helen then dazes there for a second and nods:”yes, yes, yes, the clothes here are so expensive that i cannot afford.” but she then suddenly feels there’s something wrong. The man is clearly trying to mock at her right now. But she’s not care at all, Paddy is her son, she surely has the right to teach him in her way. “Mom, i tell you, those aunts who came to dad all took things with trucks when they left, so you don’t need to save for him!” Paddy said with a frown, he did not notice there’s a man in front of him is now putting on an ugly look. Hearing this, Helen raises her eyebrows with despise. Those girls get to take things from him by trucks? But he now don’t want to spend money on her? At the thought of this, she then says with a serious tone:”oh, that’s because those aunts paid something to your dad, so your dad will surely repay them back.” how dare he say to her that he’s a virgin? Helen Brown now feels she’s such a fool! If a man buy so many things for women, it must be a reason. “Paid? What will that be? My dad has everything...” Paddy feels confused now. How ridiculous! You dad has everything? Well, he don’t have things women has! Hearing this, Liu Xu cannot stop laughing now. This woman! how can he think she’s innocent one! Her glib mouth definately can compete with Antony. “You want this or not? Let’s go if you don’t want it.” Antony Davis suddenly shouted. Helen turns back, seeing the impatience on his face, she then feels a bit sad, those woman can get bunch of things to pull into the truck after ‘the thing’, but she...she also had... he now don’t even want to buy her just one, he also lied to her before that he’s a virgin? Hum, how interesting... “Antony needs to buy clothes for Helen.” Liu Xu then holds Paddy’s hands:”Paddy, we go choose clothes for your mom.” Hearing this, the charger in the store immediately shows them the way:”this way please.” But Helen Brown feels regretful the moment she gets there. She casually takes up one dress and looks at it’s tag, omg, it’s more than 90 thousands dollars. Noticing paddy has already been picking clothes for her, she then feels so blushed all of a sudden. “Paddy...i don’t like the style here, let’s go.” shen then takes Paddy’s hands and runs away. Seeing their back, Antony then smiles slightly, this woman is... “Well? Antony, have interests in her now? ” Liu Xu said with a playful tone. Antony then takes a glance at Helen:”look at her, how can i like her?” Liu Xu nods deliberately:”yes, you are so right! She has this plain look, and she teaches Paddy in her silly way, what’s on her mind after all? how can you lack of those eighty thousands? Well, so self-flattering! You see, We wanted to buy her some clothes, but she said the style not work on her, she always think things in a very rigid way, you better keep distances with her in the future, she’s so embrassing!” Antony then stops his step, after a while, he says:”it’s not bad also to let her to suffer a bit sometime.” Hearing this, Liu Xu swallows her saliva and be speechless, well, seems he’s willing to slap him on the face, then she has no way to help him. They planed to eat lunch together, but on the way to the restaurant, Liu Xu suddenly gets a phone call, she then hands over the phone to Antony. Antony clearly feels unhapdpy after answering the phone, seems there’s some bad things happened. “You bring Paddy to home now.” Antony said to Liu Xu. Helen now gets off the car, seeing the bad look on Antony’s face, she then says:”no matter what happened, take your time, don’t be anxious!” Antony looks at her deeply and then nods, his lips lifts slightly now. After a while, Helen notices there’s a car driving behind and stops besides them, she then realize the car has been following them all the way. “Young master, Miss Shen, please get in the car.” after droping Paddy at home, Helen is ready to leave now. “Mom, remember, you are my mom, if anything happenes to you, just mention my name or my dad’s name, okay? ” seeing helen is about to leave, Paddy then repeated again. Hearing this, Helen suddenly feels so warm in the heart, she always wants to be Paddy’s harbor, but now seems he’s her guard. “Well, i know, little lad, mom’s not a kid, you do too, eat less snacks but more meals, okay? ” “Your IQ cannot amount to a kid even.” Helen then points at Paddy’s forehead in a spoil way:”yes, yes, you are smarter than me!” Sweet words still cannot cover the sad look of Helen, even if it’s just the temporary parting. It’s soon till Monday. Helen walks inside of the makeup room, a fat young lady suddenly leans over:”Helen, you are amazing! I’ve heard the manager will raise your salary.” she then takes a glance at Helen with an unspeakable expression. Helen then frowns there all of a sudden, she don’t know what happened. She then smiles at the fat young girl without saying a word. “Hum, someone’s really lucky, look at me, have been here for three years, but the salary only goes up 1/3, hum, someone only be here few days, but her salary still goes up 1/3, what a difference! Well, i guess we are just being too conservative!” in the corner, Ma Qingqing who is known as an apple-polisher corresponeded in a sour tone. Later, Helen knows the reason why Ma Qingqing could enter SM is because she had an affair with manager Lin, her makeup skill is always the worst here. But she’s still favored by manager Lin for years with her flattering mouth. The whole makeup room now falls into quiteness all of a sudden, more than dozens of artists stay silent. But apparently there’s some kind of tacit understanding between each, so the atomosphere here is not that awkward. Helen sits in front of the desk with messy thoughts now. She really don’t know what has happened after all. It’s Gao Wen who raised her wage? But why? She wants to explain, but words kind stroke on her throat right now, she only gets to see the contemptuous look on each of them. After a while, Miss He taps her shoulder while she walks out, and nods at her. The trusting look on Miss He add some strength on Helen right now. “Helen, here you are!” there comes the voice of manager Lin. Helen suddenly feels coldness on her back, she then stands up with her head down:”manager Lin.” “Helen, sit, sit, sit...” he then pulls the stool and sits in front of her:”Helen, Antony will attend the banquet later, you come over to do the makeups.” What? She has to do the makeups for Gao Wen in front of Antony? Helen cannot believe this is really happening... Suddenly, there’s a sound of stool falling on the ground coming through before she makes any reactions.
