Sharon felt a bit squirmish. “Okay, mough with the mushiness. If you keep this up, I might just bail on you for real.
“Okay, I’ll zip it up. Sophie said with a smile.

After all, Sharon had just found out about Alex’s affair not long ago. Bring alone. she would likely overthink and even cry in secret.
In front of others, Sharon always pretended to be calm, and Sophie didn’t want to bring up Alexs affair to make Sharon sad. Sophie just hoped that Sharon could move on from this relationship and embrace a new life.
After finishing their meal, they headed straight to the mall.
As soon as they walked into a men’s clothing store, Sophie was immediately drawn to a black suit displayed in the center.
“Could you please show me that suit?” Sophie asked.
Wrap up that suit for me!” Another voice came through.

“No, you can check the conditions for becoming a VIP customer yourself, the sales associate replied.

She dialed a number and spoke sweetly, “Daniel, I just found a suit I want to buy for your birthday, but someone here is giving me a hard time, saying I need to be a VIP customer to purchase it.”
The person on the other end seemed to ask for her location, and Emily gave the address. She then turned back to the sales associate. “My boyfriend is on his way”
