“I’m not. Anyways, let’s go. Do you have anything else you want to try on?” Shane asked with a smile.

“No, that’s all. You’ll pay by way of an apology since you stood me up last night,” Jacqueline shook her head and said.

Shane nodded. “Ok.”

Jacqueline smiled. She looked down the railing subconsciously when she heard a familiar voice in the next moment.

It was Natalie dressed in a white dress twirling in front of the mirror.

The white dress looked amazing on Natalie’s curvy figure as compared to hers since the illness had reduced her to skin and bones.

This shattered Jacqueline’s confidence.

She lowered her eyes to hide her jealousy and envy. “Shane, were you looking at Ms. Smith just now?” Jacqueline said disparagingly.

Shane’s eyes flickered as he murmured an affirmative reply. “I happened to see her at the store.”

“Really?” Jacqueline mumbled as she dug her nails into her palms. “Ms. Smith is so pretty. I wish I could have a healthy body like hers and stroll through the streets in a beautiful dress. What a pity... This wish of mine will never come true.”

Shane frowned. “Don’t say that, it will.”
