“I only remembered when you mentioned it. Online shopping is way more convenient here in A City." Vivian smiled and massaged her forehead.

All this while, she had fully integrated herself into life here. However, she had no one to guide her, so she missed out on many conveniences.

Vivian took the several sets of clothes that Luca had picked out for her and walked into the fitting room to try all of them on.

On the other hand, Luca sat on the sofa in the store and waited for Vivian to finish changing.

While waiting, she glanced toward the door, and her eyes flicked upward when a figure passed by it.

The figure seemed familiar.

Luca put the magazine aside and kept looking at the door to see how long the person would stay at the door.

"Luca, does this look good on me?" Only when Vivian's voice sounded did she slowly withdraw her gaze.

After looking her up and down, Luca gave an affirmative answer, "Youthful and beautiful. It looks great on you."

Vivian smiled bashfully. "I'm old now, so I'm nowhere near youthful nor beautiful."

"Says who? It depends on how one dresses and presents themselves, not age. This outfit suits you, and you can wear it to school too." Luca disagreed with her words and tried to boost her confidence.

"Luca, you have such a way with words. I'm clumsy. If only I was as articulate as you, I wouldn't have a problem getting along with my classmates in the new semester," Vivian said enviously.

She never had a strong sense of self-confidence to begin with, especially throughout those years when she was constantly criticized by Gordan's wicked tongue. She had no self-esteem at all.

"It'll be okay, and I'm telling the truth. There are two more sets. Let me have a look after you change into them. If they suit you, let's buy them all," said Luca as her eyes subconsciously traveled to the door.

"Okay, but what are you looking at?" Vivian asked out of curiosity.

"Nothing. Go on and change. We still need to buy some stationery later as universities here are different from universities in Russia.
