NovelAppIrene knew that Lucas could be very stubborn and accepted his offer with a smile.
"I don't know what I want yet, so let's walk around!" She took his hand and walked toward the night market where there were more people.
To avoid trouble, Irene wore a face mask, leaving only her eyes visible.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucas had gotten lost in those eyes many times, and he thought to himself, "If only she didn't have that scar on her face, maybe someone would have adopted her, and she wouldn't have to lead such a miserable life." Soon, Irene pulled Lucas into an accessory shop.
"Mr. Lucas, I want a hair tie for a birthday present," she said.
"What's a hair tie?" Lucas did not have a single clue what accessories girls used.
"It's something that I can use to tie my hair." She showed him a hair tie that she already had. "It's getting a little loose, and it can't hold my hair as tightly as before. Buya hair tie, Mr. Lucas!" Lucas had not expected her to ask for such a cheap gift.
"Pick whatever you want. Pick a few." "Oh... I just need one. It will last a long time." Irene began looking through the bands available, looking for one she liked.
He looked around the shop, noting all the other accessories that were there. He had no idea what they were used for and scowled in confusion.
Lucas picked up a hair tie to check the price and realized that it only cost a few dollars.
It was rather cheap. Even if he was not the son of the Woods family, he would consider this cheap; however, he knew with certainty that Irene would not let him spend too much.

He took a glance and agreed that it looked cute. "What about this one? Or that one?" He wanted to buy a few more for her as they were not expensive to begin with.
"One is enough, Mr. Lucas." She walked over and took the hair ties in his hand and returned them to their places. "I have more at home! They just don't look good." Not wanting to argue, he said, "I'll get you a cake on your birthday, then." "Sure! But are the only ones eating it, so make sure you buy az smaller one," she said gratefully "When is your birthday, Mr. Lucas? I will buy you a gift and a birthday cake then." "It can wait until after you pay your debt off!" He headed to the cashier to pay, and Irene followed him to hand the hair tie to the cashier.
Once he had paid, the two walked out of the shop and Irene tried to tie her hair with the new hair tie, before turning around to show the back of her head to Lucas. "Does it look nice, Mr. Lucas?" "It's lopsided." Lucas reached out to tilt the bunny accessory in place.
"Hehe. Do I look pretty with it?" she asked.
Lucas was never one to compliment others or express his feelings directly, but he figured that no one had ever called Irene 'pretty' due to the scar on her face and said, "Yeah. Pretty." "Mr. Lucas, what do you want? I have money now so I can buy you something, too." She took out the envelope of cash.
"I don't want anything." "Let's just walk around, then." She wanted to buy him a New Year's gift.
