Chapter 967
“Grandma, you‘re watering the flowers?”
“Are the exams over, Nicole?”
“Yeah.”
“How did the exam go?” Mrs. Wallace Sr. was concerned about her studies.
“I don‘t think it’s a problem.”
Mrs. Wallace Sr. saw Nicole‘s confidence and nodded her head. “Glad to hear that. You can relax now.”
“My grandpa asked me to come and pick you up. He invites us to have a family dinner tonight.”
“Tonight? Will we disturb him?” Mrs. Wallace Sr. asked endearingly.
“No. I will take you in now and change.” Nicole helped her into the house. When Nicole came to the room, she found that Mrs. Wallace Sr.‘s clothing was not suitable for attending dinner. So she drove Mrs. Wallace Sr. to the mall to buy some clothes. She realized it was her fault for only thinking of taking her grandmother shopping for clothes now, blaming herself for not having thought of it before.
“Why are we coming to the mall?” Mrs. Wallace Sr. felt
dizzy looking at the busy mall. “You have been here for so long, and I can‘t believe I haven‘t even taken you to buy a few outfits. It‘s so unthoughtful of me. It just so happens that we have dinner to attend today, so let‘s pick out a few more sets.” Nicole took Mrs. Wallace Sr.‘s arm and headed into the mall.
“I have clothes. Don‘t spend unnecessarily.” Mrs. Wallace Sr. disagreed that Nicole was spending money frivolously. “It is alright. I‘m earning money now, and I can afford to buy you something better.” Nicole led her into a shop.
“Hello, how can I help you?” A shop assistant came forward and asked. Her attitude was a bit haughty when she saw Nicole and Mrs. Wallace Sr. dressed plain and simple.
“Get my grandma some clothes that fit her. We have dinner to attend,” Nicole said.
“Okay, just a moment.” Nicole clearly sensed some impatience from the shop assistant, but she said nothing and took her grandmother aside to sit down.
