As soon as Jade returned to the bedroom, the phone rang and it was Cynthia. She immediately picked up the phone and answered, "Hello, Miss Cynthia..."
"Jade, I'm sorry to contact you so late," Cynthia said softly.
"It's okay. Are you... are you okay? I heard from Denny that you went back to the Royal Garden last night..."
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"Oh, that's good." Jade paused for a minute before asking, "Then what are your plans for next?"
"I... thought of settling in Manhattan first and then made plans later."
"Manhattan? You're going to settle down in Manhattan and not come back to New York?"
"For the moment, I have to stay away from New York. And the closest city is Manhattan." Cynthia chuckled, and continued with a rare joke, "If you miss me, you can come and visit me anytime ."
