"Don’t buy it!" Jane Sampson snapped in anger and sha, keeping her voice low as she yelled at Jas Black.
Jas Black chuckled, reached into the shopping cart, and lifted out Jane’s candy and potato chips separately, nodding his head, "Fine, then don’t buy these two items either."
Jane’s face turned green as she watched her snacks, which she had hidden so ticulously, effortlessly exposed by Jas.
So, this guy had seen her picking up snacks from the start, he was just here to mock her!
Jane, grinding her teeth in anger, shouted back at Jas, "If I’m not buying, then I’m not buying!" She stomped past him and made her way around the other side of the cashier’s counter, leaving Jas behind as she strutted out of the supermarket in a huff.
Jas hadn’t expected Jane’s temper to flare up like that, leaving him in a jam with the shopping cart, unable to move forward or retreat, as he watched Jane’s ponytail disappear from his line of sight.
"Are we done yet?" Jas looked at the people ahead of him, who seed to be idly wasting ti, and asked impatiently, "How much longer?"
His voice was low and hard, matching his cool deanor. The custor in front of him silently stepped aside and said, "Mister, if you’re in a hurry, why don’t you go ahead? I can’t find my card and haven’t found it yet."
Jas thanked him and naturally turned around to switch the two boxes Jane had tampered with back to the ones he had originally picked, then took them to the cashier’s counter along with the other stuff.
The young couple behind him muttered, "His girlfriend left and he doesn’t chase after her. I really doubt he’ll have any use for what he’s buying."
"Maybe he’s keeping it for the next one?" the boy whispered, speculating.
Jas, having better hearing than ordinary people and the young couple right behind him, was aware of their hushed conversation.
"Mister, will you be paying with card or cash?" the cashier’s sweet voice asked.
Jas took out his wallet from his pocket, pulled out a bank card, a black card with no spending limit, and handed it over. Ignoring the young couple admiring the sleek card behind him, he completed the paynt and put his wallet away.
After placing the shopping bags into the shopping cart, Jas suddenly turned and addressed the couple behind him in a very serious and earnest tone, "The lady from before is my wife, so even if I carry a box back, I’ll have use for it. There’s no need for your concern."
After speaking, Jas walked away with the shopping cart, leaving the chatty couple standing awkwardly for a few seconds, unable to regain their composure.
Because the paynt had taken so ti, Jas sped up after leaving the cashier’s counter, searching for Jane at the supermarket exit.
He wasn’t sure whether Jane, in this hot weather, would go out and take a taxi ho on her own or if she would wait for him outside.
Fortunately, after looking for a while, he found Jane in a dessert shop, with her back turned to the doorway, bending over as if she were choosing a cake from the display.
Jas walked in, holding his items, and quietly stood behind Jane.
