"Mr. Vice President, I'm really fine. It's just a business trip after all."
"No, it's not."
Simon gently took Ellie's hand.
"This trip is more personal than business, Ms. Secretary Yeo."
"Please don't do this, Mr. Vice President..."
"At this rate, we won't be able to buy anything. I'll just choose for you. If it really doesn't suit your taste, tell me then."
Simon quickly chose a store and swiftly picked out a two-piece suit, a cashmere coat, and a dark green alligator skin bag.
He then pointed out two pairs of shoes and ordered the sizes without even asking Ellie.
Shocked by Simon suddenly burdening her with tens of millions of won worth of items, Ellie grabbed his arm.
"You don't have to do this. I'll still go on that trip."
"I know. Consider it a resignation gift and a farewell gift."
"It's too much!"
"Ellie Yeo. Does this seem excessive to me?"
