After Arya's reminder, Toph suddenly understood the situation. Renee's unhappiness from the banquet until now
was because of this.
He had, in fact, promised complete devotion to Renee. How could she have misinterpreted his intentions?
However, on reflection, Renee apologized later on.
Regardless of the circumstances, he was also to blame!
Toph was annoyed and regretful. He wished he could just remove his head and offer it to Renee to vent her
frustration!
"Toph? Toph!" Arya waved a hand in front of him. "What's gotten into you?"
"Nothing!" Toph patted his head. "Ah, it's all my fault! I was wrong. I really don't have a brain!"
Arya widened her eyes. "What's going on with you?"
"Nothing, that's all!" Toph hurriedly left but turned back just as he reached the door. "Arya, if you want to apologize
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto a girl, what kind of gift is better?"
"Well..." Arya smiled awkwardly.
She lacked experience in this field. Despite having many boys pursue her since childhood, the gifts during courtship
and for apologies were entirely different matters.
She only remembered that her brother had upset her before, but she was easily appeased. Graham just needed to
coax her, and she would not be angry anymore.
She was at a loss regarding Toph's question.
"Well... if it were me^" She tried to put herself in the situation. "I'd like to receive an art book set! A set of
paintbrushes would work, too!"
Toph frowned. "But she's not you..."
"Toph!" An idea suddenly came to Arya. "I heard that giving makeup products to girls is a good idea.
You can give her different shades of lipstick so she can be in a good mood every day!"
Toph's eyes grew wide, and suddenly, an idea sparked in his head. He thanked Arya and hurried to the mall.
None of the staff at the DL Mall's cosmetic counter anticipated witnessing two grown men fighting over a stick of
lipstick.
First, Toph spread his arms like a white crane, blocking the lipstick counter firmly behind him!
Then Chris swung his leg and kicked Toph away!
Toph lost his balance, leaving an opening for Chris, who seized the opportunity to grab the stick of lipstick.
Unexpectedly, while Chris was about to reach the stick of lipstick, he suddenly felt a force pulling him back. When
he looked down, he saw that Toph was clinging to his legs on the floor!
"Toph! Let go!"
"Chris! That's mine! You're not allowed to snatch it!"
"Toph! If you don't let go, I... I'll have to resort to using violence!"
"Ah—"

The manager rushed over in a fluster. Upon seeing this scene, he was just as bewildered as everyone else.
Dozens of security guards around were hesitant to step in and break up the fight, each casting inquiring glances
toward the manager.
Taking a deep breath, the manager quickly understood the situation. It turned out that, for some reason, the
Hamerton heirs had come simultaneously today. These two young men had both taken a liking to the same limited-
edition lipstick, and neither would allow the other to have it.
"Is that the only stick of lipstick left? No stock left?"
The salesperson stuttered, "How is that possible... We have dozens in stock. If we run out, we can still transfer from
other stores. Besides, the one they are fighting over is a sample..."
"Why didn't you say that earlier?!"
"They didn't listen to us!"
The manager's headache intensified. These two straight men did not seem to know that the lipsticks on the counter
were just testers. They probably thought that it was the only one in the world.
The manager made an effort to adjust his expression into something resembling a natural smile and risked his life
by stepping in between the two of them!
