Son of Chaos 148 You are Celine?

"Just tell me where to go and I'll drive.", Ivan said.

The two of them went into the garage, where Ivan selected a black Audi for them to take. After boarding the car, Celine told him the route to one of the biggest shopping malls in the city, Kurd Mall.

After parking their car, the two of them entered the mall. It was the first time Ivan saw such a mall. Until now he had always shopped in the smaller stores at the alliance, which were very different from this mall. With the targeted customer group being the members of the alliance, they were mainly focused on practicality and ease of finding what one needs. In the mall, on the other hand, the customers were normal citizens, who, after school, hadn't fought even a single time. Of course, their expectations would be different.

When he first entered he admired the great hall, which white marble floor together with the warm lighting gave it a very welcome atmosphere. While the sides were occupied by a multitude of shops, the center was filled with plants, seating areas, and cafes.

While he was still looking around an arm wound around his. It was Celine's who now stood close beside him, making them look like any other couple walking around here.

"Let's get some clothes first.", she proposed and subtle pulled him towards one of the stairs leading up to the second floor.

On the second floor were a multitude of clothing stores. They were separated into four groups: children, woman, man and mixed, with the woman area being the biggest. This made it easy to see that women made up a large part of the customers of this mall. All of the stores belonged to known brands, which Ivan knew nothing about.

Under Celine's lead, they arrived before a store, which seemed to offer all kinds of woman clothes. It seemed like she was familiar with the store, as when she entered she directly walked towards one of the young women in uniform, which were waiting to serve the customers.

"Hey, Lia.", she greeted the woman, but only earned a confused look in response. It seemed that the woman was unable to recognize her, which wasn't a surprise, considering her drastic change.

Celine didn't felt slighted since she understood that fact and only told her with a smile, "I'm Celine. You know, the old woman in a wheelchair."

When she said that a flash of recognition flashed through Lia's eyes, but was once again replaced with confusion.

"You are Celine? But ...", she asked in confusion.

"Yeah. I was ill before and have now recovered." while saying that, she removed her arm around Ivan's and walked towards the young woman.

"Really? You told me you were ill, but this transformation is just too huge.", Lia was still unbelieving. It had only been one week since she last saw Celine, so seeing her having changed so much in just one week wasn't something she could believe.

"Do I have to first tell everyone about what happened when we first met?", Celine jokingly treated her.

Lia hurriedly shook her head, "No need, no need. I believe you."

Ivan looked at the two of them with a gentle smile. It seemed like the two of them were good friends. Although he wondered how that had happened, it should have something to do with that first meeting Celine mentioned, and it didn't seem appropriate to ask about it.

Now that the first confusion had been solved, the two women started to happily chat, leaving Ivan with nothing to do. He slowly walked around the store, looking at the different dresses on display.

All of them were well made and looked beautiful. Finally, he stopped before one of the simpler clothes on display. It was a cream-colored suit for women, which he thought would fit Lara very well.

"You want to buy it for Lara?", suddenly a voice behind him asked.

Surprised he turned around and saw the woman who had asked the question. It was Yevina who stood behind him. She was accompanied by her fiancee Key who greeted him as well.

"Hello, Ivan."

"Hello", Ivan returned the greeting, before asking Yevina, "How did you know that I was wanting to buy this suit for Lara?"

She shrugged, "I guessed it. From what Key has told me about her, that would be something one could gift his sister. For other women, it would be kind of weird to gift a suit instead of a dress.", she then explained.

"Oh, so that's how it is.", Ivan nodded in understanding before asking the two of them, "Right, how come you are here?"

"Haha, this mall belongs to the Imperial Trust Fund, so we regularly check it out.", Key explained.

Ivan looked around and saw, that everyone was ignoring them. "It doesn't seem like the employees here know that you are their boss.", he then commented.

"They don't. Or to be exact they don't know that I'm their boss. Our family has always been secretive with our appearance. Just check out some videos of our public appearances and you will find out that we look very different in them. It would be such a hassle if everyone knew how we look in reality.", Key explained.

Although Ivan was surprised, he could easily understand them. Being recognized everywhere would truly be annoying.

"In fact, most higher nobles won't use their real appearance for public appearances.", Key then continued.

"So whom did you come here with?", Yevina interrupted their conversation, "After all Lara isn't here at the moment."

Ivan pointed at Celine who was still chatting with Lia. "I came with Celine."

The two of them looked at the woman he had pointed at. "So who is she?", Yevina asked curiously.

Ivan didn't want to explain their exact relationship, so he just explained, "It is kind of complicated, but is something like a servant. But also something more."

His vague explanation only served to increase Yevina's curiosity. "So does Lara know about her?"

"Of course. In fact, she is the one who had her stay with us."

"Well, then everything is alright.", Key said.

They chatted some more until suddenly Yevina brought up her wish to buy something special.

Key looked at her puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"Well you know, there will be another party soon and I want a special outfit for that."

"Oh, then after that we can go to that shop Larissa recommended.", Key answered.

"Party?", Ivan asked confused. Mentioning Larissa, he could only think of that sex party she had mentioned at the gala. "You two went?"

Yevina smiled, "Yeah we did and it was great."

Key nodded as well. It seemed that after he had been convinced by Yevina to attend the party he had enjoyed it as well, which surprised Ivan.

"Surprisingly, it was fun. At first, I was against it. After all who would want to share their wife. But after she forced me to attend I found that it could be quite a turn on. At least if you swing that way."

"You should try as well.", Yevina told Ivan, but he shook his head.

"No. I don't think I could do it. Just the thought makes me angry.", Ivan refused.

"So you are one of those.", Key nodded. "Then what about sharing someone other? Someone who isn't your wife?"

Ivan took some time to think about it. Unlike the thought of someone having sex with his wife, the thought of sharing someone else didn't repulse him. "I don't know. But it isn't repulsive."

"Then do you want to come with us to shop?", Yevina asked, "I mean after you have finished here?"

"I'll ask Celine and then decide."

"Great, then we'll be at the Green Rabbit Cafe.", she said, before leaving together with Key.

While they were talking, Celine had wrapped up her conversation with Lia as well and was now trying out different dresses.

"Hey, what do you think about this?", she came over, wearing a dark blue short dress, that hugged her figure in a sexy way. While it was short at the bottom and showed much of her beautiful legs, it was closed at the top. This contrast made it much more appealing if either everything was shown or hidden.

"It looks great.", Ivan voiced his honest opinion, bringing a happy smile on her face.

"Then I'll buy it.", she happily says, before walking towards another dress to try on. This one was more conservative since it was longer and not as figure-hugging. Thus it was more suited as casual wear.

After selecting some trousers and shirts, as well as another two dresses, she finally finished. Ivan too told one of the employees to pack up the suit he had selected and after paying with the card, Lara had given him, they left the store.
