As soon as Stella met the young girl's eyes, the other party immediately stopped staring and avoided her gaze. Stella wonderedwhy she was looking at her when Marshall asked, "What kind of glassware are you going to buy?” She returned to her sensesand said, "Mugs, | suppose. You?"
"| need some teacups for the guests."
"Don't you have teacups at home?" Stella wondered. ‘Didn't he say they have a Thanksgiving dinner tradition? How in the worldwould they not have enough glassware?’
“Our cupboard that holds the tea sets fell a while ago. Everything was broken, and no one got around to buying new ones. So...
"| see," said Stella. 'How would a cupboard where the tea sets were kept fall for no reason? Did his family fight and break all theglassware?"
The elevator arrived at the fourth floor, and the crowd started getting out. Marshall led Stella straight to a store that sold tea sets.The glassware looked pretty, but the prices were not since they were from imported brands.
Stella looked around and found a pair of glass mugs. She picked them up to take a closer look and noticed they were quite thick.The cups were made from explosion-proof glass. They looked simple yet beautiful with a little color gradient.
"Those are quite nice," Marshall walked over and said. "Are you going to get them?"Stella nodded. "Yeah. There's so much to choose from, but these caught my eye."Marshall turned to the seller and said, "Wrap these up for me and ring them up.”
Stella was stunned when she heard that. "No. Wait. We'll split the bill," she hurriedly said.Marshall laughed. "It's not even that expensive, Stella. Don't worry."
Stella waved her hand and said, "It isn't for you. These are several hundred dollars per piece. That's a lot of money. You can'tkeep doing this, or I'll run from you the next time | see you."
Marshall could not resist her, so he sighed and smiled. "It's just some mugs. There's no need to take it so seriously."novelbin
"Then, how about | pay for yours?" Stella asked.
Marshall then handed her the glassware he had chosen and said, "Here you go. Thanks."
Stella was at a loss for words. '! was clearly just trying to make an analogy...’ she thought. However, she still reached out to grabthe teacups. Marshall suddenly pulled his hand away and said, "Oh, never mind."
“What's wrong?"
"I'm afraid that you'd regret it when you get home and block my socials," Marshall raised an eyebrow and said.
Stella glared at him and said, "What kind of person do you think | am?!" Then, she generously told the salesperson to puteverything on her card.
Marshall smiled and did not try to fight her. "I'll wait for you over here," he said.‘| can't believe him,’ thought Stella.
There were a lot of people in the store at that time. While queuing at the checkout line, Stella felt someone staring at her. Sheturned to the side and saw a young lady in her twenties taking pictures of her with her phone. The girl hid her phone andpretended to look at the cups and glasses when she noticed Stella glancing at her.
Stella looked away but could feel a pair of eyes staring at her again after a while. When she turned her head this time, the girl'sphone was three feet away. It was apparent that she was secretly taking pictures of her.
