Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1466

It had been four months since he last saw her, and she had grown thinner. Women often got fat for eating too much, whereas Jane was slim to the point that Alex could see the frail capillaries on the bridge of her nose. There were a few freckles on her face, but they didn't affect her beauty in the slightest. To say that she was beautiful would have been an understatement. More precisely speaking, she was happy. She was beaming and her sweet smile showed just how fulfilled and content she felt. But her clothes...

Alex could not bear to look at the clothes that she was wearing. Jane was not short in her height, but her feet were relatively small and fitted only heels at size 36.5. And now, she sat on the stairs of the bridge and the first thing that caught Alex's attention were the oversized shoes that she was wearing. It was a pair of black tarpaulin male workers' boots with stitches layered on both sides of the shoes. The stitches were subtle but Alex had great eyesight since he was young, and therefore was able to conclude with just one look that the shoes Jane was wearing had been torn and fixed from the inside before, so one could only see the threads from the outside, which were not obvious.

The shoes that were fixed were in the size of 40 and made Jane's feet look as though they were swollen. She tied the shoelaces tightly to prevent them from slipping off, which emphasized the fact that she was

wearing shoes that were enormous for her tiny feet. It looked hideous and awkward, but at the same time, heart-wrenching. Alex's eyes traveled upward from her feet and noticed that Jane was wearing a pair of old cotton pants with flower patterns.

'Oh, God!' he thought. That type of cotton pants were often found only in local markets in remote villages, which cost no more than twenty for a pair. Most people who would buy this type of pants were elder women, which seemed out of place when worn by Jane. Luckily, the sweater she wore was slightly better -looking. It was a medium length cotton top in a copper-red color with a hoodie that came with it. The hood had white fur sewed to the edge that cupped her face, which had visually made Jane's face look even smaller despite her outfit. She did not wear any makeup, but her skin and lips were extremely pale.
