Chapter 669
“A year?” Lina Sweeney gave a low cry. “Then your wedding with
Jason will also be postponed a year?”
Grace nodded. “I haven’t talked to Jason about this yet. I’ll talk to him tonight and see what he thinks.” However, she had a hunch.
that he would agree.
It seemed as if he had agreed to every request she made ever
since they started dating.
Lina Sweeney looked at her friend’s haggard face and suggested. “Why don’t we go to the shopping mall? Hadwin Stephenson asked me to accompany him to a meeting. He said he’s ordered a set of clothes for me to pick up at the shop in the shopping mall
near here.”
Lina Sweeney did not want to be noticed at all at such conferences, banquets, and so on. However, Hadwin Stephenson kept dragging her to them as if he was addicted.
The most infuriating of all was when she argued that she was busy at work and needed to work overtime or something, the fellow would only smile and say it did not matter. Then, she would get a call from her superior who said she need not work overtime.
Needless to say, she knew Hadwin Stephenson had talked to the
boss of her company.
They got to the nearby mall, and Lina Sweeney approached the shop to pick up her clothes with Grace.
Of course, the clothes Hadwin Stephenson chose were not ordinary brands. It was a first-tier luxury brand where even the most basic clothes cost tens of thousands of dollars. Clothes that cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars were
common in the shop.
Lina Sweeney told them Hadwin Stephenson’s name, and the sales a**istant immediately put on a smile on her face. She graciously took the clothes out for Lina Sweeney to try on. If the clothes did not fit, they could modify it.
“Wait for me here, Grace,” said Lina Sweeney.
Grace nodded. “Sure.”
She was browsing the shop when she heard a voice coming from the shop entrance behind her. “Aren’t you spending too much buying me clothes and bags here, Brian? It doesn’t matter if I use something worse.”
“Now that we’re here, just buy some good stuff. Take whatever you like,” the man’s voice rang in response.
“You’re so good to me, Brian.” Stella Lindsay smiled sweetly.
“You saved me once, so I owe it to you,” said Brian as he lightly looked away. However, when he saw the figure in the shop, hist body stiffened suddenly.
Even just the sight of her back made his eyes warm.
Then, through the gla** wall in front of the figure, Brian’s line of sight met a pair of almond-shaped eyes.
‘He’s looking at me!’ Grace looked at Brian’s eyes through the gla** wall and could sense that he was looking at her.
When she looked at Brian, she could not help thinking of the dream she had last night. She never saw the face of the little boy in her dream.
However, judging from the little girl and the little boy’s experience in the dream and the fact that the little boy was called ‘Bryn’, she felt as if the little boy in her dream was him!
Stella Lindsay followed Brian’s gaze and saw Grace too. Her expression could not help but change instantly.
Stella Lindsay then smiled again and said, “Grace. I didn’t expect
to bump into you here.”
Grace turned around to look at Stella Lindsay. “It’s quite a coincidence.”
“Are you here to buy clothes? It just so happens that Brian said he
was going to buy me some clothes and bags. Please help me choose them,” said Stella Lindsay.
As Stella Lindsay spoke, she lovingly linked arms with Grace in a
sisterly manner.
A stranger might think the two of them were close.
