One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 491

Chapter 491 Timmy or Jimmy?

Josephine had originally asked Courtney to pick a birthday present with her, but after they had browsed through many shops in the shopping mall, Courtney started to find her a burden.

“Josie, I think that this bag’s nice. I’m sure that Great-Aunt Alicia will love it.”

Courtney slung the bag on herself and twirled it in front of Josephine as she modeled it on herself. However, Josephine merely rolled her eyes at Courtney. “Please, Mommy. You seem to be picking a gift for yourself. Great-Aunt Alicia’s nearly sixty years old, so she wouldn’t fancy bags with gold rims.”

As soon as Courtney heard that, she silently put the bag down and trailed after Josephine, who had already turned around to enter another shop.

“How about this silk scarf? I think this scarf suits Great-Aunt Alicia very much, and it’s her favorite color too.”

 

At that moment, Josephine was tugging on the straps of her bag with both hands, and she peered out of her hoodie to reveal a pair of large, bright eyes. She considered Courtney’s suggestion seriously and the shop assistant was quite perceptive too, so she quickly squatted down and enthusiastically held the scarf in front of Josephine as soon as she saw that. “Hey there, this scarf here is our best-selling product, and many customers came to get this when it was first released. This is the only one left, so if you like it, you should probably grab it as soon as possible.”

As soon as Josephine heard that, she nodded her head and the slight frown on her face disappeared. “I’ll skip this then. Great-Aunt Alicia mentioned that she doesn’t like best-sellers.”

 

After she had said that, she turned on her heels before marching to the next shop decisively.

They finally entered the final shop on the second floor of the shopping mall, and at that point, Courtney’s soles were slightly swollen. She took a seat in the public waiting area of the second floor, and she looked at Josephine with a defeated look. “I’m feeling tired. How about—”

“Mommy, look!” Josephine’s shrill voice suddenly made Courtney stifle her words.

She glanced in the direction where Josephine was pointing with a slightly confused look. “What is there to see?”

“This shop, Dolce Patisserie, is owned by Fiona’s dad, and she said that we can go and try everything for free.”

There was a glimmer in Josephine’s eyes, and there was an excited expression on the five-year-old’s face, which was hardly ever seen. After she had said that, she instantly dragged Courtney’s hand and bounded toward the shop.
