Chapter 271

As expected of Quinn, very quickly after less than a minute of grief, she recomposed herself and went back to looking elegant and dignified again.

However, something was still off with her countenance, and her smile looked forced.

"Let's go home, Quinn!" I suggested, knowing she was only pretending to look calm.

"Okay." She got up and walked out, her back tall and straight, though her footsteps were a little heavy. This news had come as a huge blow for her. No matter how hard she tried to pretend to be calm, it was not enough to hide the grief and disappointment within her.

Before we even managed to walk out the door, we were stopped in our tracks by the sight of a certain two people walking toward us.

Nancy and Matthew!

The two of them, walking one in front of the other, were coming into the shop and bumped right into us.

When Nancy saw us, her smile immediately disappeared and she turned around to say to Matthew, "Son, let's go somewhere else. What rotten luck!"
