"Then..."
Brad still wanted to ask something, Eileen cut him off, "Why do you have so many questions today? You haven't finished with the encyclopedia I bought you, right? Go and read it."
As if remembering something, Brad added, "Mom, my schoolbag is torn."
She took Brad out to buy a new schoolbag and some clothes for him. The new season was coming, but he didn't have enough clothes.
They went to the third floor of the mall. The children's department was there.
There were domestic and foreign brands.
She went to the domestic brand outlets.
Brad was so sensible that he never asked for toys unless he liked them very much.
She picked out a few medium-priced clothes and a schoolbag.
After that, she took Brad to the escalator and went downstairs.
As the escalator slowly went down, Eileen inadvertently saw the familiar figure of a man.
It was Luke!
A woman stood beside him. She could only see her side face.
Eileen looked at her very carefully. The woman's side face was similar to Zora's.
It was the woman who went to the hotel with him that night.
The children's products were sold on the third floor, while the women’s clothing department was on the second floor.
The woman was carrying a bag of clothes i n her hand. She was shopping.
Luke was accompanying her.
Eileen couldn't help gripping the handrail, her heart aching.
He had never bought anything for her, nor had he taken Brad to buy anything.
Now, he was shopping with another woman.
This was such a sharp contrast!
He had entirely different attitudes toward the people he loved and didn't love.
The moment the escalator sent them to the first floor, Luke happened to look over.
They stared at each other from a distance.
