"Uh..that was not it, of course I love sitting here with you, I-I was just thinking of another something"
Evelyn nodded her head thoughfully, "it's fine!"
They got to the mall, with two big guys tailing behind them, gosh! why were they so big...it was sure as described in the novel
"May I help you, Mrs Black?" A young woman in a dark blue short skirt and a cream like top walked over to us, her hair was tied into a tight bun...
"Oh Grace! You are back?" Evelyn exclaimed. Seems like she was frequent at this place and she knows the workers here
"Of course Mrs Black, I wouldn't stay too long just because of a birthday party" The lady called Grace smiled
"So, how was it? The old man throwing tantrums again like a kid?"
Grace chuckled, her hand sweeping the air slightly "That old man would surely never change"
"I know that! How about the others? Were you able to give them my gifts? Or they still didn't show up this time?"
'Good lord...how many more minutes would i still have to stand here listening to their conversations, seems like they were two good friends or they wouldn't be chatting like this' Elena thought.
Grace's eyes lit up "Oh they! This time was unbelievable different, Evelyn, they showed up and it was shocking even for the old man"
So, they were two good friends, giving the way Grace switched to calling her Evelyn instead of using the normal 'Mrs Black'
Before Evelyn could respond, Elena cleared her throat lightly to remind them that a living being was still here!
"Oh, I'm so sorry, Elena" Evelyn turned her head to her
"So, Grace? Meet my daughter-in-law Elena and Elena meet Grace my friend and the manager of this mall" Evelyn introduced and Grace eyes widened in shock
Very well said, they were truly friends
"Did you get your son married and sweeped me away from the invited guest?" This made Evelyn throw her head to the back laughing
"Why do you think I would do that? My son is getting married to this beautiful young lady here and I would surely invite you to the wedding. Maybe, to oppress you and you can urge your son to get married too"
'What? This young woman had a son old enough to get married? She looks young just like me' Elena exclaimed in her mind
"Now here we go again, your annoying statements"
Awkward!
" Your son is not getting any younger, Grace, get him out of that house of yours soon"
Grace just smiled "So Elena right?"
Pulling her out of her thought "Y-yes Elena, nice meeting you Grace"
She laughed "You sure got a daughter-in-law with a sweet voice"
"Of course, my son has good eyes!"
"I see so"
'Only if she knew how clingy the other Elena was, but too bad, only those in the Empire circle which only includes some specific business owners knows about Elena White desperately wanting to marry the Black empire's heir and how she woke up one morning and said she wanted a divorce but it never went out to the public and if it does then all the business mens would surely see their company falling at their front...now she was here to change that!'
