“You looked so good in this outfit,” Evie smiled and scrutinized me.
“Thank you, Mom,” I also smiled widely at her.
Afterward, they went shopping at other stores. While I was waiting for them, I couldn’t help but take a selfie and then posted it on my Timeline: “The coat my mother–in–law gave me, do you think it looks good? I really like it.”
I was very happy, I just didn’t know if Emilia would be happy to see my Timeline.
I didn’t expect the first comment to be from Tristan. He wrote, “Not bad, where’s my Pudding?”
I replied, “Don’t worry, the nanny would take good care of Pudding.”
Tristan: “That’s good then, don’t feed it too much. It’s a bit greedy.”
I sent an ok emoji.
Tristan: “Where was Frederic?”
I looked at the growing comment section and decided to message Tristan privately. “Do you have to chat with me in the comment section?”
If Frederic saw it, he might cause trouble for me again.

He would think that I seduced his good friend!
Tristan: “Is it not allowed?”
I snorted and replied to him, “What’s the difference between taking a shower at home and taking a shower on the street?”
Tristan didn’t reply to me anymore. I checked the Timeline again, and he had already deleted his comment.
Evie came back carrying many shopping bags. “Syl, let’s go back. I am tired,” she said. She had finally bought enough.
“Okay.” I put away my phone and then took the various – bags from my mother–in–law’s hands. Afterward, I followed
behind them and left.
When I got back home, it was already late in the evening.
I haven’t strolled through the streets as seriously as today for a long time. Usually, my friends like Greta and I would just head straight to the restaurant.
So tonight my legs were very sore. I took a shower and then got ready to sleep.
When I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I heard Frederic’s voice answering the phone. His voice was deep but gentle, saying, “It’s okay, I’ll take care of it.”
Then came the sound of the door opening.
I suddenly woke up. I ran to the balcony and looked down. Frederic’s car lit up and then disappeared into the snowy

night.
Ernie and Evie’s house was quiet. They probably didn’t know that Frederic had left in the middle of the night. Suddenly, my phone rang, it was a message from Frederic: “I have something to take care of. Stay here for a few more days, I will come pick you up.”
Based on the tone of his phone call just now, I believe it was Emilia on the phone.
Looking at that text message, I felt sad.
He was not as heartless and unkind towards me as he was in the previous life, because he sent me a message. However, he didn’t love me very much either, because he cared more about Emilia than me.
Just when I was feeling overwhelmed, Ruben sent me a message: “That outfit looks great.”‘
My mood suddenly improved a lot. I replied, “Haha. Thank you!”
Ruben: “My praise comes from the bottom of my heart, Sylvia. Haven’t you noticed how beautiful you were?”
