Chapter 189

‘I think this sweater looks good on Caden, a teenager. Furthermore, the color blue complements his
neat appearance.‘ Molly thought. “I can‘t take this, Molly,” Caden said, waving his hand. He was aware of
how expensive the clothes in this boutique were and did not want Molly to spend money on him. Caden t
ried
to remain calm by looking away. He took his gaze away from the sweater. ‘That is, in fact, a nice sweater,
‘ he thought.

The triplets know nothing about dressing up. Molly chose the outfits for them, and they loved
them. They had always assumed that their mother had the best taste in everything.

“Why don‘t you
try it on, Uncle Caden, to see if it fits?” Alex suggested. Caden had no response to that question. He exa
mined his white sneakers, soiled with dust and a little mud.

Caden noticed the white floor of the boutique was cleaner than his sneakers. His low self esteem crept u
p on him as if it were devouring him from within.

‘Is Uncle Caden okay?‘ the triplets wondered. ‘Why wasn‘t he
content to go shopping with us?‘ Molly became aware of what was going on. “Please hold on to these. I‘ll
be right back,” she said as she quickly returned the clothes to the shop assistant. “You kids wait here for
a while. Mommy and Uncle Caden have something to talk about,” Molly said to the triplets. “I‘ll be back, s
o behave yourselves and stay where
you are.” Molly then led Caden outside, not far from the boutique. “Are you feeling like

you‘re not good enough for the things here?” she asked after making sure the triplets were sitting nicely i
n the boutique. Molly was blunt because she didn‘t want Caden to avoid her. Her actions stunned him.



Molly noticed something was wrong here. “Caden, I know you are a sensible child, and your parents love
you very much and provide everything for you,” she said with a smile.

“Just that those things will not boost your self–
esteem. So don‘t just think of the prices here as high. Consider how those on the streets use
their appearance as a weapon. Would you ! choose these well–
worn people or those who have dressed averagely if you wanted to bully someone?”

“That is why I am buying these branded clothes
for you. Not to brag about, but to use as a means of protection. I believe you can one day earn all of this
with your own hands.” Just as Molly finished, she noticed Caden was patiently listening to her and smiled
. Molly did this because she thought she saw a younger version of herself. That girl who just moved out o
f the countryside.

Molly understood Caden‘s feelings and decided to have a heart–to heart with him. She had faith in him.

‘I believe that if I could break free from a cocoon and transform into a butterfly, Caden would be even gre
ater than he is now.’
