Chapter 220
Skylar felt suspicious as she replied to Natalie, "What a coincidence."
Natalie replied almost immediately: "Isn't it just! By the way, why did you reply so late? Were you up to something naughty? Spill the beans."
Seeing the word "naughty," Skylar took a deep breath to calm herself. It was just an accident, after all. She half-joked, but still told the truth: "I was soaking in a hot spring with a hunk, touched his eight-pack abs, and he accidentally lost his pants. I saw everything."
Natalie stared wide-eyed at the message. Her previously gloomy mood immediately brightened.
"Oh my god! My dear, have you decided to let loose after breaking up with that scumbag? Tell me where you found such a catch! Send me photos. I wanna see!" She felt she needed to compensate for the fun she'd missed with Jeremy tonight.
"I'm talking about a real person, not some video," Skylar replied.
"Is it for real?" Natalie asked hesitantly.
"For real."
"I get it; you had a naughty dream. Poor girl. I'll help you find a real hunk. You know my cousin, right? He spends six days a week at the gym. His chest is even bigger than mine! I'll bring him over this weekend. You need a boyfriend like him. You'll thank me later!"
"No need; I'm already married," Skylar clarified.
But Natalie didn't believe her. "Yeah, right. Go to sleep. Dreams can be wild. See you this weekend!"
"See you then."
Skylar turned off her phone and opened her Amazon store. There had been many orders in the past few days, resulting in substantial income. Once she had more time, she could dedicate a couple of hours daily to live streaming.
Suddenly, one order caught her attention. The buyer's avatar was a luxurious watch worth a few hundred thousand dollars, adorning a slender, well-maintained wrist with manicured nails. People with such avatars usually intended to show off. That buyer had sent a picture of a seal painted with gold leaf.
Though Skylar mainly dealt in antiques, she had some knowledge of such items, thanks to lessons from Viola. She hadn't had much talent before, but now possessed a certain intuition, as if she could sense their history and essence.
Her expression turned serious.
"I heard this seal can improve luck in love. Is it a scam? Do you understand this kind of thing?" the buyer asked.
Skylar looked at it and replied, "It can attract a partner, but the person you seek likely has a family already. Am I right?"
The chat window showed the buyer was typing, but they didn't send a message for a while. Skylar understood the buyer's hesitation. Such seals could harm one's own fortune. Moreover…
Skylar thought for a moment and added, "You must've used other items before. The person you desire already has a partner. This seal can help, but it will affect your future children's fortune."
"You're right. The person I love has a family, but his wife can't compare to me. I can tell he likes me more, and we are more suited for each other. However, he finds it hard to divorce due to family pressure. Can you offer a better solution? I need to have a child soon. Name your price," the buyer replied.
Perhaps the anonymity of the internet made the buyer more candid about her desires.
"Sorry, I can't help you. Please request a refund for this order," Skylar decisively refused. The buyer didn't respond further.
