Chapter 226
They finished eating lunch. Frank insisted on taking Lucas to the shopping mall. Judith didn’t want to go
but could come up with any excuses. Frank was in charge today. She couldn’t decide what to do, Frank
arranged everything. Besides, she didn’t know how to say no to him. She wanted to spare herself from
this, but it would be an irresponsible act for her child. And she didn’t want to become an irresponsible
adult in front of her child. In the end, they decided to go to the shopping mall. When they were in it, they
saw lots of toys and clothes displayed for kids. On the third and fourth floors, there were fashionable

looked at them with delight. Frank and Lucas were getting along very well as if they were close friends.
She even didn’t get a chance to join in their conversation. So she began to observe Frank’s good-looking
face instead. He was tall. He had nice hair and a very handsome look. When he opened his teeth and
smiled, he would become even more handsome. Lots of women in the mall cast furtive glances at him.
Few of them could resist not looking at him. Judith pursed her lips and said, “Lucas, I’ll go to the
restroom, don’t look for me!” These were the most said words of her today. “Okay, Mom! We will wait
here,” Lucas responded without looking at her.
Judith glanced at Frank. And their eyes met, smiling at each other. Judith didn’t know what to say. She
turned away her eyes and left. “Judith, what are you doing here?”
All of sudden, a familiar came voice behind her. Judith noticed and found out it was Ann. She was with
her mom. Judith said to herself,
Judith smiled at them out of politeness. And she went up to them reluctantly. “I just came here for
shopping. Is it not okay?” she replied coldly. Ann seemed surprised to see her. She looked around, her
eyes searching for Frank for she knew Frank wasn’t at home She wanted to know if Frank was hanging
out with Judith.

hostility was inexplicable
Judith was lost in bewildering thoughts, wondering how on earth Sarah was not wanted by her
grandmother. She cast a cold glance at Manlyn and put up a sneening smile She said, “Excuse me,
Manlyn, I dont like your tone and your attitudel if I was not mistaken, you consider yourself as the super-
rich type who has good education and good manners Where are your high manners? What a shame!
Judith continued with anger on her face, “Yes, I know there are a lot of wealthy people here for shopping
But I
don’t see any written rules saying that I can’t! So tell me, Marilyn, Why shouldn’t I be here?”
