However, that night itself, she had trouble sleeping and she was up the entire night. She finally fell asleep in the morning and woke up in the afternoon. It was then she received a phone call from Scarlet, who invited her to go shopping with her in order to purchase some new clothes.
Angela was aware that Scarlet was just trying to fill up her void during this period.
As such, Scarlet’s car pulled over discreetly in front of Angela’s house. Since both families had not met each other before, Scarlet did not plan on entering the Meyers Residence as a guest. She picked up Angela and headed off to an exclusive shop in the town center. It was a relaxing afternoon with some teatime chit-chatting.
“Angela, don’t worry. Do you know what my son’s nickname is? Everyone addresses him as ‘Zeus’ because he is such a mighty and powerful figure, who never failed any of his missions. I’m sure that he will definitely succeed in this one and come back victorious too.”
As soon as Angela heard that, she felt much better than before as she nodded. “Yup, I trust him too.”
Truth be told, Scarlet was used to such anxiety as she used to worry about her husband the same way she worried about her son now.
“Oh, I have a god-daughter and I’ll introduce you guys to each other next time. She’s studying abroad and gaining a master’s degree in interpretation. She’ll be back soon.”
“That sounds great. I would love to get to know her. She must be very outstanding.
“Her parents are extremely close friends of ours and we have known each other for ages. They have been permanently stationed abroad for work, so this kid grew up by my side ever since she was a child. I regard her as my daughter.”
“Yea, I’ve heard about that from Richard.”
