Jade and Tiffany exchanged a glance, then hurried in and saw a woman lying on the floor. She was surrounded by a crowd, but no one dared to step forward to help."Let me through, I'm a doctor!" Jade shouted as she pushed her way through the crowd. When she saw the woman on the floor, she couldn't help but pause. The person who had fainted was none other than Anna, who had come to apply for the dance teacher position earlier."It's her?" Tiffany was also surprised, but now wasn't the time for that. Saving Anna was their priority. She stepped forward to help Anna up while Jade checked Anna, only to find out that she had simply fainted due to low blood sugar and was not seriously injured.When Jade called out to Anna, she was still conscious."Does anyone have any candy or chocolate? Something sweet?" Jade called out to the crowd. A staff member from the spa hurried over. "I have some."Some guests, after staying in the hot springs for a long time, would experience low blood sugar,
It wouldn't be right to have her propose to Caelan, right?By the time their hot spring session and spa treatment were over, it was already two hours later.Exiting the club, Jade and Tiffany headed straight to the place they had agreed to meet Anna. Anna had said she would be waiting for them at the restaurant. As they neared the location, Tiffany called Anna. "Anna, we're almost there. Where are you?"Anna's voice came quickly through the phone. "Just walk in and head straight ahead. I'm sitting in the corner. I’m easy to spot.""Okay, we're coming." Tiffany hung up the phone and entered the restaurant with Jade.The restaurant was crowded, so it seemed like it was quite popular. As Jade and Tiffany entered, a waiter approached them politely."We have a reservation," Jade replied, then spotted Anna, who was waving at them from not far away.Jade and Tiffany hurried over to her."I was not sure what you guys like to eat, so I didn't order yet." After the two of them sat down,
When Anna spoke, she inadvertently glanced at Jade. There was a barely noticeable glint in her eyes. By the time Jade noticed, Anna had already withdrawn her gaze and flashed her a charming smile. "Sorry, it's just that you and my ex have similar eyes."Anna's words surprised Tiffany. "What? He has similar eyes to Jade? But that's impossible, Jade is a girl."There were significant differences between men and women, and Tiffany thought Anna must be joking."I meant their gazes," Anna explained. "Jade's and my ex's gazes are quite alike. There's a kind of distant indifference when they look at people."Jade smiled. "Oh, really?"Actually, even without Anna's explanation, Jade herself had known that her gaze was no longer gentle after experiencing the pain of her past life. There was sharpness in her eyes. Though Jade tried to conceal it, a perceptive person could still see it.Anna's words made Jade uneasy. She wondered if Anna knew something about her. Why else would she say such
The height difference and physique contrast were immediately apparent.Tiffany was too frail, so she didn't even register on Kevin’s radar.Kevin effortlessly pushed Tiffany aside and moved to leave, arrogantly dragging Anna along."Let go of her." A sudden, icy voice cut through the air. Jade couldn't bear to see Tiffany and Anna being bullied, so she had already discreetly informed Owen.Owen strode forward, standing in front of Jade as he stared down Kevin.Kevin, who hadn't expected anyone to dare interrupt his fun, threatened Owen. "Hey, bumpkin, this ain't your business. You'd better scram... Ah!"As he spoke, he pointed his finger at Owen. Owen detested being pointed at, and his strong grip soon made Kevin squeal in pain.Watching him writhing on the floor, Tiffany sneered. "Serves you right for bullying women.""Have mercy, please." Kevin pleaded with his face contorted in pain, devoid of his earlier arrogance."Get lost." Owen kicked Kevin in the chest, making him scr
After Anna left, Tiffany stared off in the direction she had gone, lost in thought. Jade waved her hand in front of Tiffany with a laugh. "Why are you so lost in thought?"Tiffany held off Jade's hand, feeling a bit down. "I just feel sorry for Anna. Being alone in a foreign city must be awful."Jade could see where Tiffany was coming from. Tiffany sympathized with Anna because Anna's situation reminded her of her own."Don't be naive. Do you think she's strapped for cash? Don't let her sweet talk deceive you. If someone intends to deceive you, you won't be able to stop them."Jade was not as naïve as Tiffany, so she wouldn't be easily deceived. Anna's appearance seemed too coincidental, and there was something odd about her situation. Jade just couldn't quite put her finger on it.As they walked along the road, a speeding car passed by. A lightbulb went off in Jade's mind, and she suddenly said, "I know what's weird about this.""What's wrong?" Tiffany couldn't follow Jade's tra
Since Gemma had been arrested, Melvin had asked her for a divorce, and he had been single until now. Leah didn't care about his affairs, but she had never expected him to bring a woman home. She knew exactly what Melvin was up to.What was on the tip of her tongue—telling him to come in—was forcibly changed to "Say I'm not feeling well and ask him to leave.""Uh..." The servant looked conflicted and sought help from Jade.Jade also found it inappropriate to deny Melvin entry with his guest, so she stepped forward to persuade Leah. "Grandma, you haven't seen Dad in a long time. Why not let him in to see you? It would not be good for him to stay single forever. If he has someone by his side who cares about him, you’ll feel reassured too."Leah wasn't opposed to Melvin remarrying. She was just afraid of another cunning woman like Gemma entering the family and causing trouble. As she considered Jade's advice, Leah's hard heart softened a bit. "Shall we meet them then?""Just a quick l
Zoey looked anxious and glanced at Melvin, seemingly wanting him to make a decision. Melvin couldn't figure out Leah's intentions either and said anxiously, "How about I accompany her?""Why do you need to tag along when a lady is changing clothes?" Leah asked Melvin to stay, pretending to be angry. "Do you think Brianna won't be able to take care of it properly?"Zoey became even more anxious. "No, that's not it. I just thought it would be too much trouble. Since you said so, I'll go upstairs with Brianna to change."Brianna led Zoey upstairs, and Melvin's eyes followed her closely, as if he was afraid she might run away.Seeing Melvin's demeanor, Leah knew he genuinely liked Zoey."Tell me, how did you two meet?" Leah asked directly, making Melvin breathe a sigh of relief.He glanced at Leah with slight resentment. "Mom, if you have a question, just ask directly. Why beat around the bush?""Where is she from, and do you know everything about her family background? I won't acce
Zoey looked pleasantly surprised. She wanted to decline, but when she saw Melvin giving her a signal, she shyly accepted it.Leah then instructed Brianna to prepare dinner and insisted that Zoey stay for the meal, which was basically an indication that she more or less accepted Zoey's presence.After dinner, Melvin left with Zoey happily. Meanwhile, Jade stayed by Leah's side, massaging her shoulders. She was gentle and skilled, and Leah closed her eyes in contentment as she chatted with her. "Jade, what do you think of Zoey?""It's hard to say for now. We'll have to wait and see by interacting with her," Jade replied.Leah nodded. "Alright, let's observe for a while longer."Suddenly, she remembered something. "How are things progressing between you and Caelan?"Upon hearing the topic shift to herself, Jade quickly found an excuse to leave. "Oh, Grandma, I just remembered something I have to take care of. I have to go."Before Leah could react, Jade grabbed her bag and rushed o
