“Cordelia, are you done? Can we buy this painting?”

Xyla walked over with a colorful chiffon scarf, showing it to her daughter with a beam.

“I bought this just now. Look at the embroidery. Nice, right? This embroidery is rarely found in Centrolis. Only South—”

Before she finished her sentence, the air went silent like it was warped into a vacuum.

Janine stared at Xyla, and Xyla stared back at her. Both of them looked at each other for some time, eyes widened, and calling each other’s name almost in unison.

“Xyla?”

“You… Janine?”

Both women shared shock, surprise, and ever-changing emotions in their expressions and gazes.

Cordelia was dumbfounded. Others would have thought they were the gallery’s wax figures looking at their frozen states from afar!

“Mom, Madam, you… know each other?”

Xyla snapped back to reality. With a grimace, she grabbed Cordelia and muttered, “Seen a ghost in broad daylight. Come on, let’s go… Let’s hurry home…”

“Xyla Irwin!” Janine called for her and stepped in front of her. “You didn’t see a ghost! You’re just too ashamed to see me, huh?”

“You…” Xyla’s finger shook. “Stop making things up! Why am I ashamed to see you?”
