"Yes, what a coincidence." Emmeline was at a loss for words.

"Indeed. It's such a coincidence." Janie's face suddenly turned pale.

"Excuse me, miss, the cashier is over there." The sales clerk next to Janie said to her.

Janie handed the bag to the sales clerk. "I'm sorry, I don't think I'll be needing this anymore."

The sales clerk was surprised, and she could see the glumness on Janie's face.

"Pardon me, I suddenly remember I have to be somewhere else. Bye."

Janie smiled faintly at Emmeline and walked out of the tinted glass doors.

Emmeline wanted to give chase, but Benjamin grabbed her arm.
