Chapter 135

Back at the Jade Court, Cheney and I were having dinner when I got a call from Flora. She wanted to see me.

After dinner, I got up and walked to Flora's residence. When I passed the door, I just saw Jacob coming out of the house.

I came up and said, "Uncle Jacob, good evening."

He gave me a look, nodded coldly, and then walked away from me.

I wonder, Jacob, what's going on?

Seeing him out of the yard, I pushed the door and went in. Flora was the only one in the room.

She looked at me. "Miss Krista, I just heard my dad talk about you. You must be very sad because of me today."

I sat down on the wooden stool beside the bed. "It's nothing, and everyone doesn't know, so they will misunderstand."

"I just feel sorry in my heart. If I hadn't fainted, I could help you clarify at that time. Where would you suffer so many grievances? I originally asked you, but the result made you suffer such criticism. It's really... I'm so sorry."
