I looked at the box, but there was no name written on it.

I picked up the dress, and there was a card hidden under it, which said: [You're welcome, Mally.]

I subconsciously covered my mouth and looked back at Theo, who was wearing a dark expression.

I moved away and stuffed the card and dress into the box. Lips pursed, I said with a smile, "It's just love between siblings. Don't get me wrong. I'll call and ask him."
