Hearing the sudden sound of running water from the bathroom, Stephanie finally let out a sigh of relief.

After putting the food container on the small table, Stephanie walked to the bathroom door with a smile on her face and knocked, saying, "Mom, are you using the restroom?" "Come in." Surprisingly, Marilyn's response from inside was quite friendly.

Stephanie pushed open the bathroom door with a bit of surprise and couldn't help but be taken aback by the scene in front of the mirror.

Marilyn was standing in front of the mirror with wet hands, smoothing her hair back from her forehead.

She had dampened the stray hairs that had been sticking up and smoothed them down. She had even put on some light makeup on her face, looking much more energetic than before. Seeing this, Stephanie asked puzzledly, "Mom... What are you doing?"

Marilyn meticulously combed her hair before turning around, smiling at Stephanie and saying, "Will you go shopping with me this afternoon?"

With a helpless expression, Stephanie said, "Mom, how did you know I got my paycheck today?"

Marilyn hesitated for a moment before replying, "You got your paycheck?"

"Yeah! It's quite a lot! Working at a nightclub sure pays well! I definitely made the right choice taking this job!" Said Stephanie.
