When Leah started spreading rumors about me, I set the record straight with them.

Sharon and Brenda looked at each other. Brenda seemed like she wanted to ask something, but Sharon quickly covered her mouth and pulled her away.

"okay, okay. That's enough gossip. Let's figure out what we're having for dinner tonight."

"oh, by the way." Sharon pushed Brenda into a chair and burned to me. "You're going home tomorrow, right? What time is your flight?"

"3:00p.m."

As soon as I stepped out of the airport in Yardville, I was hit by a blast of hot air. After getting used to the cold weather in Napel, it took me a moment to get used to the heat. I took off my down jacket. "Ms. Riley."

Just as I was taking off my jacket, the family driver arrived. I nodded, handed my luggage to the driver, and got into the car.

In the group chat, Sharon and Brenda were asking if I had arrived yet. I replied and chatted with them for a bit. When I looked up, I realized we were not going to the Wiley residence.

Jack's voice sounded Eke he was confident I wouldn't refuse. I tightened my grip on the seat and, after a moment, replied calmly, "Alright."

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the dock. I got out and saw Eleme standing there with her suitcase. When she saw me, she loolding at me

she rolled her eyes and turned her back, not even

I simply ignored her. Max took another white suitcase from the trunk and said, "Ms. Riley, this is the huggage Mrs. Alley packed for you. I'll be going n Then, Max drove away.
