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.

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