“Sorry, I never knew how to handle her,” he refused bluntly.


    Irked by him, she said between gritted teeth, “You jerk! You just stand by and watch me sink lower and


    lower.”

    “Quit exaggerating. But whatever, I don’t care what you think.”


    ir closed her eyes to hopefully calm down and hold back her anger.


    “Okay, okay. Then hand me a card. I want to buy your mom a gift. I’ll pay you back when I get a new


    phone.”


    Wesley lifted his hands to show her the shopping bags.


    “My wallet is in my pocket. Grab it yourself. My hands are full.”


    ir remembered the embarrassing scene at the supermarketst night.


    To avoid any more embarrassment, she took the bags from him. Anyway they were just clothes and


    shoes, so the bags weren’t heavy at all.


    “Now you can take out the bank card yourself.”

    Cecelia approached them.


    “What are you two whispering about? Wesley, why is ir carrying the bags? She’s a girl!”


    Wesley exined, “I’m giving her a bank card.”


    “Why?” Cecelia asked naturally.


    ir was worried. She didn’t think Wesley was a good liar and he might blurt out the truth. So she


    chipped in quickly, “Last night at the supermarket, I was about to swipe my card…but Wesley…already


    paid the bill… Then… I…put my bank card in his wallet, because it was raining outside I forgot to get


    my card back.”


    Obviously, ir was no better than Wesley at telling a lie. She stammered to make up ame excuse.


    But lucky for her, Cecelia bought her lie. She nodded to them and urged


    Wesley to be quick.


    Wesley gave his bank card to her. Now, with card in her hand, ir finally had the courage to lead


    Cecelia to the brand shops that were suitable for the middle-aged mother.


    In the end, ir bought Cecelia a silk scarf as a gift. But the price was rather cheappared to the


    things Cecelia had bought her. ir tried her hardest to lead Cecelia into those gift shops. But the nice


    mother couldn’t pick out anything she liked.


    Later, when they shopped in the cosmetics area, Cecelia was interested in a particr shade of


    lipstick. A saledy brought a sample stick for her to try the color. ir also tried on a warm-toned,


    Mocha lipstick shade. After applying it to her lips, she turned to the man who was waiting for them, and


    asked, “What do you think of this color?”


    Wesley looked at the smiling woman in confusion and then focused on her moist, plump lips.


    “Color? Isn’t every lipstick red?” he asked. He didn’t know about the colors, but he did want to kiss her


    lips right now.


    ir shook her head helplessly. Ceceliaughed and told ir,


    “You’re wasting your time asking him. He’s a typical guy.”
