Chapter 15

After departing the clothing store, Gavin embarked on another tour of the mall with his sister, where they proceeded to procure a variety of essential items.

This time, everything unfolded without a hitch.

The scene at this place was truly expansive, and now, with Gavin escorting his sister through the mall, they attracted a variety of respectful and curious glances.

Currently, Gavin sat in a luxurious senior suite at a hotel.

The sound of running water continuously emanated from the bathroom.

Zoe was now taking a shower.

The bathroom door had been intentionally left ajar, driven by Zoe’s apprehension that Gavin might make a stealthy departure.

However, it posed a dilemma for Gavin.

The bathroom featured clear, high-tech glass.

When the door was closed, the glass turned into an opaque frosted surface, concealing the interior.

However, with the door slightly ajar, anyone outside had a clear view of the inside.

Moreover, the person presently immersed in a shower was none other than his own sister.

Throughout the wait, Gavin steadfastly fixed his gaze on his feet, for he dared not lift his head. After all, the scene in the bathroom was rather indescribable.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too long before Gavin caught the sound of his sister’s voice.

“Gavin.”

Upon hearing her voice, Gavin looked up, and his eyes instantly brightened.

Zoe, now cleaned up, was wearing the latest limited-edition dress.

She exuded an aura of purity, loveliness, agility, and natural charm.

She appeared as if a stunning woman had emerged from the depths of a timeless masterpiece.

Originally, Zoe possessed a charming countenance, but her overall appearance had taken a hit due to the absence of proper attire and a layer of grime on her body, making her look like a beggar.

However, now it seemed Gavin was not good enough to be her brother.

Gavin rose to his feet and reached out, clasping his sister’s hand, all the while fixing his gaze upon her delicate face.

He spoke with a gentle tone, inquiring, “Are you tired?

“If you are, you can take a break for a while.”

“I am not tired at all!” Zoe shook her head and asked.

“Gavin, are we going to find Layla next?”

Gavin nodded his head.
