"Your grandma and I are shopping in the mall."
Wesley was confused. It was he who had dropped them off at the mall. Of course, he knew where they were and what they were doing. Why was
Grandpa calling him to say this? “Did you find anything you like,
Grandpa? Buy whatever you want. I'll come over later and settle the bill."
“Well, Grandson-in-Law, the two girls who received us at this store think that we can't afford any clothes here and are trying to throw us out. They are saying we are too poor for their...their.hang on. What's the word? I don't know. Apparently, we are too poor for their taste and they want us out of here before we make their store look bad."
The girls heard him. One of them cast him a contemptuous look and muttered, "Humph! The old man is telling on us. Is his grandson-in-Law rich or something?" The other girl replied, “Let's hope he is. If he pays, at least we wouldn't have wasted all our time on them."
Wesley frowned.
“Grandpa, which store are you in?"
Greenwood thought about it.
“We're on the fourth floor. The name of the store is a bit long. I can't read it." Then, he turned to one of the girls.
"Excuse me, what's the name of this store?"
The girl put on a fake smile and replied, “Honorable.”
"I didn't catch that. Something ball," Greenwood said.
Wesley heard the name.
“Grandpa, wait for me at the store. I'm on my way."
The call ended. Marie grabbed Greenwood's sleeve and complained, “Why did you call him again? He is a busy man. We could just leave and go to another store."
"I won't. I'll wait here for Wesley to come," Greenwood said stubbornly.
He wasn't too happy about being treated so rudely. In less than half an hour, a group of men in uniforms walked into the store.
The man in charge was wearing a frosty expression on his face.
The eyes of the salesgirls glinted at the sight of the soldiers.
They dashed over and greeted them in unison, “Welcome to Honorable
Wesley ignored them and walked straight to Marie and Greenwood. The girls were stunned.
“Grandpa, Grandma," he said with a slight nod
The soldiers who had followed him to the store spoke in unison.
“Grandpa, Grandma!"
