Chapter 543

I thought that even though she stood me up last time, this time she was mainly having dinner with my mom and meeting her future mother-in-law, so she should take it more seriously and not stand me up again.

Thinking about meeting her future daughter-in-law, my mom was also very excited, but at the same time, she was extremely nervous. In the morning, she asked me if my outfit was appropriate and if my complexion looked good. Her nervous look made me laugh for a moment, and I joked with her, "Mom, it seems like you're going to meet your in-laws, not your daughter-in-law."

My mother smiled. While laughing, a touch of sadness flashed in her eyes. I knew she must have remembered the scene when she married into the Duffy family and met my grandparents.

I quickly changed the subject, "Mom, take a break here. I’ll go to the mall across the street and pick a gift for my future sister-in-law."

My mother nodded, sitting on the bench beside me, smiling and instructing me, "Then you must choose a better one, so that others can feel our attention."

"I got it, I’m going now."

There weren’t many people in the mall this morning.

Chapter 541

I went to a jewelry store and picked out a beautiful necklace. As soon as I came out, I saw a familiar figure. Kimberly?

When I saw Kimberly, I instinctively looked around to see if Reynaldo was there. After all, weren’t she and Reynaldo always together, inseparable? However, I looked around and did not see Reynaldo. It was really strange that Kimberly went shopping at the mall without asking Reynaldo to accompany her.

I looked at Kimberly carefully again. At that moment she was chatting with a woman, who had her back to me and I couldn’t see her face clearly. However, the woman’s back figure looked slightly familiar, and the clothing also seemed somewhat familiar.

It’s a bit like, a bit like the woman my dad had an affair with. That back, that big wave of hair, that dusty and sexy outfit, the more I look, the more it looks like.

A flash of angry speculation suddenly crossed my mind. I felt a chill in my heart, carrying the gift, I walked towards them. Just a few steps closer, Kimberly saw me. She frowned, not knowing what to say to the woman in front of her.

The woman immediately walked quickly towards the aisle leading to the elevator ahead.

“Stop!”

I growled lowly and immediately quickened my pace to catch up. Kimberly grabbed me and smiled, saying, “Ms. Duffy, what a coincidence.” I coldly shook off her hand and continued to chase after the woman I had just seen.

When I reached the elevator corridor, the woman had already taken the elevator and left. I still hadn’t seen her face clearly, but I strongly suspected that she was the woman who seduced my dad.

Why was that woman with Kimberly? Did she hire Kimberly specifically to deceive my dad and seduce my dad? The thought of this possibility instantly sparked a touch of anger in my heart. What did that crazy woman want to do?!

Kimberly had followed along. She smiled at me and said, “Ms. Duffy, what are you chasing after?”

I asked her coldly, “Who was the woman you were with just now?”

Kimberly crossed her arms and smiled at me, saying, “She’s my friend. How about you? Do you know Ms. Duffy too?”

“Your friend?” I snorted coldly, “If she really is your friend, then why did you tell her to run as soon as you saw me coming?”
