Chapter 136

After breakfast, Elaine eagerly ushered everyone into the car, and Dane drove them to the shopping mall.

They had all the time in the world to indulge in a little retail therapy.

Elaine spared no expense, showering Madisyn with dresses that only enhanced her beauty.

Dress after dress, each more luxurious than the last, found its way into their shopping bags.

Elaine even bought a dress for Kristine, but when Kristine noticed the price difference— her dress cost just over ten thousand while Madisyn’s dresses were well over a hundred thousand-her smile faded, replaced by a slight purse of her lips.

Though Kristine said nothing, the disparity weighed heavily on her, and she silently followed Elaine and Madisyn.

Just then, a familiar voice cut through the air.

“Oh, isn’t that Mrs.

Johns?”

When Elaine saw Carly Reed, she greeted her warmly.

“Hello, Mrs.

Reed! What a pleasant surprise! Are you out shopping as well?”

“Yes, indeed! I didn’t expect to run into you here.
