Chapter 443
Julian Garnache withdrew his hand.
The corners of his lips lifted slightly.
"Anna is too adorable."
"I couldn't help myself."
Anna Ross shot him a glance.
She lowered her head and sipped her coffee.
Julian turned to Mia Lawrence.
He handed her a small bag.
"Mia, you left this in my car."
Mia's cheeks flushed pink.
She remembered that social media post.
Her heart skipped a beat.
"Thank you, Julian."
Julian laughed warmly.
"No need to be polite."
He casually picked up his coffee cup.
After a small taste, his eyes brightened.
"Anna, did you buy this?"
Mia's fingers tightened slightly.
She explained quietly.
"I bought it…"
"Do you not like this flavor?"
Julian shook his head with a soft laugh.
"I love it."
"This is my usual order."
Mia secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She quietly memorized the flavor.
Julian glanced at his watch.
"Weren't we going shopping?"
"My treat today."
Mia's eyes lit up.
She grabbed Anna's hand.
They exchanged smiles.
They quickly walked toward the shopping mall.
Julian shook his head helplessly.
He picked up his coffee and followed.
The clothing store had soft lighting.
A sales associate approached with a smile.
"Would you like me to show you our new arrivals?"
Mia waved her hand.
"We'll just browse ourselves."
The associate politely stepped back.
Mia picked up a floral dress.
"Anna, this would suit you."
"I'm buying it for you."
Anna quickly refused.
"I can't wear it now."
"The weather is getting colder."
Mia insisted on buying it.
"I got a promotion and raise."
"I must buy my best friend clothes."
Anna felt warmth in her heart.
Julian spoke up quietly.
"Ladies."
"Did you forget about me?"
Mia immediately straightened up, becoming proper.
Anna was about to laugh at her.
A clear voice called out from nearby.
"Sis!"
Sophia Roscente ran over cheerfully.
Marcus Hill followed behind her.
His hands were full of shopping bags.
A resigned smile was on his face.
Sophia linked arms with Anna.
"If I knew you were shopping too."
"I wouldn't have brought him."
She turned and made a face at Marcus.
