Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 54

Nicole was eating when her phone rang again.

Suddenly, the phone rang, and Nicole almost choked on the rice in her mouth.

"Sister, what's the rush?" It seemed that Jim thought of something. He smiled and winked at Nicole.

Nicole immediately wiped her mouth and took out the mobile phone. After seeing the caller ID, she felt relieved.

"What's wrong, Consuela?" Nicole picked up the phone, glaring at Jim who was grinning.

"Nicole, what are you doing now? Are you busy? What's up this afternoon?"

"I'm having my meal at home. I don't have anything to do this afternoon,"

Her mother and brother were fine, and Jacob was abroad. She was indeed fine.

Consuela said cheerfully, "can you go shopping with me? I want to buy a dress."

Nicole thought for a while and agreed.

"Have your meal first. I will drive to pick you up in an hour."

"Okay."

Hanging up the phone, Nicole looked at Jim, and as expected, she saw the disappointed expression on his face.

Nicole didn't dare to point it out. She frowned and said vaguely, "what are you looking at? Eat your food."

"Humph!" Jim's mood was not good. Apparently he cared a lot about his sister's date.

"Is it Consuela Bai?" Judy asked.

"Yes." Nicole answered honestly, "she asked me to go shopping with her this afternoon. I just promised her."

Judy nodded, "go and buy yourself some nice dresses. You should wear more beautiful clothes at such a young age."

"That's it. Only when you look good will people like you."

"You bastard!"

"Jim is right. Although you are divorced now, you can't give up so easily. Prepare for the future."

"Prepare!" Before Nicole could scold him again, Jim quickly put down his chopsticks, grinned and went back to his bedroom.

Nicole also finished her meal and was about to get up to clean up, but was stopped by her mother.

"I'll wash it today. You go get changed and get dressed. After that, I'll go out with Consuela to try on the clothes,"

Nicole smiled bitterly. "Mom, I have known her for many years. She knows exactly what I look like. I don't need any dress."

Judy said with a serious look, "you can't say that. After all, you are out for fun. What if you meet people you know and are laughed at?"

"Then let them laugh at me. I'm going to wash the dishes. Mom, go take a nap." Nicole refuted and took the dirty chopsticks into the kitchen without uttering a single word.

"Why don't you listen to me?" Judy looked at Nicole and sighed.

Nicole liked to be clean, but she was not used to heavy makeup. She was not that type. A simple makeup and a lipstick were enough for her.

Since she went out with Consuela, Nicole didn't even put on any lipstick. She didn't put on any makeup, and got into Consuela's car.

"Is this your car?" Nicole asked curiously.

Consuela answered as she was backing the car, "I guess so. It used to be my cousin's, but after his doctor's degree, he changed a new car. He gave me it."

"Where are we going?"
