Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 164

When Ines and Erica came downstairs, Phillip and Silvia were playing chess. Silvia was complaining in dissatisfaction, "Grandpa, you've tricked me again. You set a trap for me to fall into. You don't even give me a break. How can I ever win against you like this?"

"That’s because you’re so stupid. You must have not practiced while you were abroad. You returned all the skills I taught you," Phillip huffed, but Ines could hear the fondness in his voice.

"Silvia, Izzy and I are going shopping. Do you want to stay at home with grandpa, or do you want to come with us?" Erica asked.

Without a second thought, Silvia said, "I'll stay at home with grandpa. You guys can go ahead. I'm going to start looking for a job soon, so I probably won't have much free time. I should spend these free days with grandpa."

At this, Phillip frowned, "Why look for a job? You could just let Ethan arrange a position for you at the Meyer Group. Is Ethan not willing to help you?"

"No, I want to do something related to my major. I don't want my years of studying to be wasted," Silvia quickly comforted Phillip. Phillip glanced at Silvia, "I didn't expect you to be so ambitious. Alright, don't accompany me for today. Since you're going to work, go shopping with them. Let them pick out some work clothes for you. You need to look the part."

"Silvia, you can always come and spend time with grandpa on the weekends. Let's go shopping today," Erica also chimed in.

Silvia finally agreed to go shopping. "Alright, I'll come to visit you another time, grandpa."

The three of them headed to the mall. Ines didn't really have anything to buy since she had clothes regularly delivered to her house. Her closet was still filled with clothes with tags on them, so she focused on picking out outfits for Silvia, and selected two sets of professional attire for her.

Erica was quite satisfied, "Not bad, Izzy has good taste. This style really suits Silvia."

Looking at Silvia dressed like this, Erica couldn't help but think of Leila. The two sisters really did look alike. If it weren't for their different dispositions, people who didn't know them well could easily mix them up.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Silvia also couldn't help but be a little dazed. She seemed to see her sister, Leila, who also looked gorgeous in these types of clothes.

Seeing Silvia in a daze, Ines thought she didn't like the outfits, "What do you think, Silvia? If you don't like them, we can choose others. We have plenty of time today."

"No, I really like them, and they fit me well. Let's get these two. Can you hand me my purse?"

Silvia had given her bag to Ines when she was changing.

"Silvia, consider these my welcome gifts to you. I'll pay," Ines said, pulling out her credit card from her own bag.

"No, I can pay. I made some money when I was studying abroad, enough to last me for a while."

Silvia tried to retrieve her purse from Ines, but Ines was quicker and had already handed her card to the cashier.
