Joanne couldn't wait to go to San Francisco to put Barbara into her right place. However, she knew that she was in an awkward position right then.The Black family and the White family were the ones that proposed the idea of marriage, Jeremy had no interest in her.If she rashly went to trouble Barbara, her actions would only backfire. After thinking for a while, Joanne finally came up with an idea.Since Pedro liked her, she could ask him for help.Without hesitation, Joanne immediately called Pedro and told him on the phone thar Jeremy was having an affair with a divorced woman who had a child.In fact, Pedro had heard about it previously but he never took it to heart. He merely thought that Barbara was just another plaything of Jeremy and that Jeremy would get bored of her sooner or later.Now that he heard Joanne bringing it up, he realized at that moment that something was amiss.Jeremy was the type of man who did joy stay interested in anything for too long. It was obviously str
Barbara didn't know how to answer to Joanne; she merely looked at the latter quietly. Seeing Barbara's indifferent expression, Joanna decided to cut to the chase. "You know about Jeremy and I, don't you?""What's your relationship with him?" Barbara asked."Don't feign ignorance. I don't believe you've never heard about the relationship between him and me. We're going to get engaged soon!" Hisser Joanne."I thought you guys were not going to get engaged?" Barbara snorted.Joanne shook her head with a smile and said in a softer voice, "I know everything about you and him. Jeremy likes you. He used to like a lot of other women, but obviously you're different. He has fallen in love with you""I know the ring on your hand was given to you by Jeremy. Since he gave that to you, it shows that his feelings for you are really genuine. In fact, if he didn't give you that ring, I wouldn't even think about coming here to meet you" Joanne continued.Joanne's gaze was not on Barbara's hand. "I know
Barbara narrowed her eyes and looked at Joanne. "I will be frank with you, Miss White. Jeremy is handsome, talented, and rich, so he has captured the hearts of a lot of women. What I mean to say is, you're not the first woman to come and talk to me over this." "You!" Joanne didn't expect that Barbara would brazenly classify her as just another woman who was infatuated with Jeremy. Barbara was implying that she was Jeremy's sole lover. Upon hearing that, Joanne's expression changed. "I haven't seen you in so many years, but I see that you've gotten good at taking huh?" "Compared to you, it's really nothing worth mentioning " Barbara sneered. "Barbara, did you seduce Jeremy because you hated me for meddling in the business between you and Nathan?" Joanne continued on with her harshly questioning. "You couldn't accept that, could you? So when you heard that I liked Jeremy, you went in great lengths to seduce him. The purpose of all this is to break me, isn't it?". "You must be lunati
After Barbara went out of the cafe, she received a call from Jeremy. He asked, "Where are you?" "I went to see Kinsey," She lied. "Why didn't you call me and say that? I came all the way here for nothing, " Jeremy complained. "Sorry, I left in a hurry, so I forgot," She apologized. Jeremy decided to let it pass. "I'm going back to the company. See you later." After hanging up, Barbara got on the taxi. It was rush hour, so there were a lot of cars on the road. Needless to say, she was caught in a traffic jam. Fortunately, her boss was Jeremy, so she wasn't afraid of being reprimanded for being late. Thinking of Jeremy, a sweet smile appeared on her face. A familiar voice rang out, "How long are we going to be stuck in the traffic?" Barbara turned her head and looked over. It was Marie. Marie used to be an attending doctor for her infertility. Hence Barbara had a lot of consultation and appointment with Marie. As she so often appeared in Marie's office, those who went to see Marie

Before the breakup, Barbara did not feel anything unusual with Jeremy accompanying her everyday. But now, without Jeremy's company, she found thar her life had become so dreary.Everytime after dinner, she say in the living room, and checked her several times. Although she knew that there would be no phone calls or messages, she still looked forward to one.Thomas was playing games with Eden before he noticed Barbara's actions. He sighed and said. "Barbara it's still early, can we take Eden to somewhere nearby?""Sure!" Barbara got up and went downstairs with Eden and Thomas.The three of them took a stroll around the park. There was a night market not far from the residential area. It was always lively there in the evening.Eden saw tbe car and pointed in the direction of the market with his little finger. "Mommy can we go over there?""Sure!" Barbara nodded.Soon the three of them arrived at the market . It was packed, leaving them no room for movement. Some people were buying snack
