Tina was conflicted. However, she still decided to answer John’s phone call.

“Hello, John…”

“Tina, are you there yet?” John asked in a gentle voice.

Tina looked at her haggard appearance and asked, “John, can we change our dinner plan to anotherdate?”

Since she had just escaped from Samuel’s wicked grasp, she didn’t have the time to rent a gown. If shewere to enter the restaurant in this state, she knew she would be chased out immediately. Sensing thatsomething was wrong, John’s gentle tone grew stern. “Tina, what happened?” “Nothing happened.” Tinadidn’t want John to worry about her, so she said, “I just realized that the restaurant required a formaldress code, and I didn’t have enough time to prepare for one. I’m sorry about that, John.” “Oh, so that’sthe problem,” John sounded relieved.

“Yeah.” Tina was overwhelmed with guilt. She was the one who wanted to treat John to a meal, but sheended up canceling it instead.

“I thought something bad happened to you. I was worried,” John heaved a sigh of relief and continued,“I’ll get my assistant to send a gown to you. He’ll drive you to the restaurant as well. You just have to waitfor me there, okay?” Tina felt really bad about it. “But I’m the one who’s supposed to treat you todinner…” Her intentions were to express her gratitude to John. In the end, she only succeeded in makingJohn worry about her.

“We’re a family, after all. You don’t have to feel bad about something as trivial as this. I still have somework-related matters to deal with. I’ll head to the restaurant later. You just have to wait there patiently,okay?”

“Alright,” Tina agreed. She could hear some noises at the end of the phone. It seemed it was true Johnwas still busy with work.

John’s assistant knew Tina’s current address. It only took him a short while to send the gown, along witha makeup artist.

Soon, Tina arrived at The Navy by car.

“Miss Lynd, Mr. Carter will arrive shortly. Please wait in the lounge in the meantime.” After relaying themessage from John, the assistant turned and left.

Tina looked at the beautiful decorations in the lounge, unable to stop herself from gasping in awe. At thesame time, she was worried that she might not be able to pay for the meal.

“Can I afford this? If I can’t, do I really have to work as a maid here?’ Tina thought.

Tina stared into space. In the evening, the flowers in the backyard garden bloomed, unleashing a sweetscent in the fresh air.

Since Tina didn’t have anything to do, she picked up the hem of her gown and went for a stroll in thegarden.

Tina slowly walked on the cobblestone road. Her graceful figure attracted a few men from afar. “Who’sthat? All the customers in The Navy have prestigious social standings in Freesia, but I’ve never seen thatwoman before.”

“I don’t think I’ve seen her. Have you met that woman, Mr. Jackson?” “Mr. Jackson, I heard that yourtaste in women has changed. You used to like sexy women. Do you prefer innocent-looking chicks likeher now? Why don’t you ask for her number?”. The men laughed as they looked at Mr. Jackson, who

was sitting beside them. Mr. Jackson was the sole heir of the Jackson Group, but he also had areputation of being a playboy in Freesia. He often fooled around with women in various nightclubs duringhis free time. Now that his father had confiscated his credit card, he could no longer indulge himself.Right now, he was incredibly bored. When she saw Tina walking alone in the garden, he decided toapproach her. “Fine, I’ll ask for her number. Let’s make a bet. I’ll definitely get her number within 30minutes!” “Look at how confident Mr. Jackson is! We look forward to it!” Tina, meanwhile, was obliviousto her surroundings. After strolling for a while, she saw a team of bodyguards dressed in black appearingout of nowhere. The restaurant’s manager also stood up to welcome the guests. She was still in a daze,when she caught someone talking from afar.
