Lauren patted her cheeks fiercely, hoping to get some redness on her face so that no one would see any suspicion.
It took several deep breaths before she stepped out of the fitting room.
The image of love in front of her eyes caused a flash of soreness to pass through her beautiful eyes.
Only to see Matthew was looking at Anne sitting in the wheelchair with a pair of loving eyes, his hands gently stroking Anne's face.
"Lauren, are you okay?"
Adam, who had the phone in his hand, walked up to Lauren and gently wrapped her in his arms.
Lauren shook her head.
"Adam, let's go to another house, there are no clothes I like here."
Adam nodded understandingly, put his arm around Lauren's shoulders, and left the clothing store.
Lauren, who was just sitting in the car, heard the sound of a message coming from her cell phone, and she opened it, only to see a message clearly displayed on it.
"7:00 p.m., don't see me. Or else you will be responsible for the consequences." A short sentence, but let Lauren's face, all of a sudden turned pale. There was not a trace of blood.
"Lauren, are you all right? Is it that you are not feeling well?"
Adam asked Lauren with concern.
Lauren really wanted to ignore the message on her phone, but she could predict that if she didn't show up, she would definitely not end up well.
"Adam, just go to the store out front."
This time, Lauren didn't pick carefully and chose two professional outfits directly in the store, politely declining Adam's offer to buy a dress.
"Lauren, are you sure you don't want to buy these gowns, I feel you will look beautiful in them. When you attend some banquets with me, you will definitely be a beautiful sight at the banquet."
Looking at the price tag on the dresses, Lauren shook her head.
If it were before, the price of these dresses would not be any problem at all, but now her bank card, including her passport, is in Matthew's hand.
"Adam, let's go back, I'm a little tired."
Seeing Lauren's face, really a little tired, Adam took the dress in her hand and helped her leave the clothing store.
Driving the car, he went back to the apartment.
"Get some rest, and I'll call you when it's time for dinner."
Lauren nodded and took her clothes back to her room, closing the door behind her, she leaned right back against it, tears flowing uncontrollably any longer.
The thought of the evening's meeting gave Lauren a sense of dread and unease.
The flashbacks of those leopard-like eyes in her mind made her uneasiness grow stronger and stronger.
Lauren was in a state of intense uneasiness until Adam knocked on her door and called her for dinner.
"Lauren, do you and Matthew know each other?"
Adam asked Lauren, pretending to be offhanded.
