Chapter 647 Meeting by Chance at the Mall
She smiled, "Mom, you bought those clothes a long time ago. They're out of style. And you said your
clothes weren't pretty enough and that you wanted some new ones the other day, didn't you?"
Fannie blushed with embarrassment.
She did say that a few days ago when she was packing before leaving the hospital.
She said that the woman in the same room as her dressed in style every day and that she felt she was
dressed too plainly and looking old.
She thought Laura was now a famous star and that she couldn't dress too plainly as her mother.
She was afraid that she would make her daughter look bad!
Others would wonder why Laura didn't buy her mother some nice clothes.
That's why she said she wanted new clothes back then.
She didn't expect clothes to be so expensive nowadays!
Fannie didn't know that it was a high-end shopping mall.
Because of her health problems and Diego, she hadn't been shopping for years.
So she hardly knew what was going on outside the bubble her daughter created for her.
Fannie looked at the stores that were exquisitely decorated and full of various goods with an
embarrassed look.
She whispered to Laura, "They are too expensive. I don't think they are worth that much."
Laura pouted and smiled.
She explained patiently, "Mom, these things are indeed a bit expensive, but they are worth it."
She pointed to a store that sold mature women's clothing and said, "Look, every piece of clothing in this
store is personalized, which means that no one else will wear the same clothes as you."
"They're fashionable in design and superb in workmanship. You know what? The designer of this store
is the top international designer Amy and it took decades to train such a designer."
"It's quite reasonable that a dress designed and made by a designer with decades of experience sells
for tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, isn't it?"
"And if you look closely, you will see that those pearls were carefully hand-sewn onto the dress, and it
proves that the dress is valuable."
Fannie only saw the price tags and didn't pay attention to any of these details before.
After Laura explained, she looked at the dress carefully and thought she was right.
Finally, Fannie still hesitated, "Why don't we go to another store?"
Laura nodded with a smile.
"Okay, let's pick what you like."
They continued shopping after that.
Maybe Laura's explanation had convinced Fannie.
So she didn't reject those clothes as she did before.
Finally, they bought two coats and a dress before leaving.
It was only 4 in the afternoon when they left the mall.
Max wouldn't get off work until 6. There were still two hours left.
Neither of them wanted to shop any longer, so they decided to wait for him at a nearby cafe.
Laura ordered two cups of coffee and sat down in a corner with a good view in the VIP area on the
second floor.
They chatted for a while and suddenly saw an acquaintance coming this way.
Christine took his niece shopping today.
They were also tired and came to take a break at the same place. They didn't expect to run into Laura
and her mother.
When they met, the atmosphere was very awkward.
Christine's face was sullen.
Laura pursed her lips and didn't know what to say.
But she couldn't pretend she didn't see Christine.
So she could only stand up and say, "Mrs. Nixon, hello, what a coincidence."
Fannie didn't recognize Christine at first.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for so long. When she saw Christine, she just thought that she
looked familiar.
Hearing Laura calling her Christine, she finally recognized her.
She stood up and said in surprise, "You're... young Mrs. Nixon?"
Because when the Davies family was still in Eqitin, old Mr. and Mrs. Nixon (Chad Nixon's parents) were
both alive.
As Chad's wife, Christine was called the young Mrs. Nixon.
But Fannie forgot that more than a decade had passed.
Christine was now the real mistress of the Nixon family and everyone called her Mrs. Nixon now
instead of young Mrs. Nixon.
So Christine was angrier.
"It's you, Mrs. Davies. We haven't seen each other in over ten years. How are you?"
She was smiling, arrogant and indifferent.
Fannie was a little embarrassed.
She forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. Mrs. Nixon, you're prettier than before. If we hadn't known each
other before, I would have thought you were a girl in her twenties."
Anyway, it wasn't wrong for her to flatter Christine.
Fannie didn't know why Christine looked so unhappy.
But their children were married and they were in-laws.
They had to get along, so she didn't mind flattering Christine as long as she was happy.
Fannie said she wouldn't meddle with her daughter's love life.
So she hadn't asked them about her in-laws' attitude toward their relationship.
After all, Joris had worked for the Nixon family for a while.
She knew that Christine was sometimes narrow-minded but not pure evil.
That was why she agreed that Laura and Max should be together.
After all, the Nixon family was a rich family but her daughter was not bad.novelbin
Having acted in so many plays, Laura was famous, rich, and beautiful.
She was excellent even when she was single.
However, in Christine's eyes, Laura was just an actress.
On hearing Fannie's words, Christine really felt better.
But she looked at Laura's face and thought of her stealing her son.
She was angry at Laura for making her have to make that ridiculous bet with her son.
