True Love Waits

Chapter 1181 Knocked Down Someone

Debbie looked at Erica with a smile. "I just have this one hobby in my life. Everyone knows about it! In fact, that's why people are always sending me lipsticks. It's just so hard to resist some shades, so I try to collect them. Is there anything you'd like for yourself? You can pick whichever you like."

Erica shook her head. "No, thanks. I don't really use lipsticks a lot." As a young girl, Erica had hardly bothered with make-up as her youth made her beautiful enough. Eventually, due to her lack of interest in cosmetics, she ended up never wearing makeup or lipstick.

In fact, the only times she had a full-on makeup were when she had to take pre-wedding photos with Matthew and on the day of their wedding. However, on both occasions, Erica could neither find any noticeable changes with her face, nor could tell if she looked beautiful or not.

"Really? I don't believe you! You're a girl, aren't you? Girls like to be beautiful. Applying lipstick not only makes women look spirited, it also makes them feel more beautiful!" Debbie said. "Mom, I hardly use cosmetics... I don't even know how to apply a lipstick properly," Erica said honestly.

Debbie looked at her sympathetically. "Alas! It's all Matthew's fault. He should take you out shopping more often. Don't worry, I will teach him a good lesson when he's back!" Perhaps when Erica was a little girl, the fact that she hid her femininity was defensible. However, she was now a married woman, and Matthew, as her husband, should have done more to help her embrace her feminine side.

The two most important attributes a woman had to have was a kind heart and a pretty face. Erica already had a kind heart, all she needed to do was take better care of her face, dress better and she would become even more delightful.

"No, no. It's not his fault. It's really my problem." Erica was different from most of the other girls in her class who cared only about beauty and desirability.

Debbie held her arm, took the lipstick from her hand and put it back in its place. "Since you don't seem to like the ones here, I'm taking you to the mall. We just need to find you the color that suits you best. I know just the person for that. Let's go!"

"Oh, that's very sweet of you!" Erica realized that resistance was futile, so she followed Debbie out of the collection room first.

The two of them happily dropped by a spa first and then went to the shopping mall.

Debbie picked the lipstick stores and outlets first. Most of the store managers and sales-clerks knew her.

In a popular lipstick store, she sat Erica down in the VIP lounge and gestured at the person in the counter with her hands. Before long, a sales-clerk waltzed in with a tray lined up with lipstick shades that would be suitable for the young girl.

Despite her initial reluctance, Erica wore some light make-up and tried on a few different shades of lipsticks. Soon enough, she found a few she actually liked.

All thanks to Debbie's encouragement, Erica walked out of that store with six new lipsticks just for herself.
