Chapter 834

    Mnie did not like what she heard and frowned as she nced at <b>Dory</b>.


    Dory did not notice it, but she did meet with Eugene’s <b>dark </b>stare.


    Mnie pressed her lips and turned to leave. Dory seemed quite close to Eugene when <b>they </b>were speaking to each other. Even Vi had never spoken that <b>way </b>to him.


    gugene had dored on Vi in the beginning and got engaged to Evelyn <i>afte </i>


    indulging in Dory’s mannerisms.


    That was how he always was<b>. </b>


    <b>that</b>. <b>Now</b><b>, </b><b>he </b>was


    Dory looked at Mnie as she walked away. Mnie’s long light–<b>colored </b>dress <b>entuated </b>her body perfectly. Dory could not help whistling. “Her body <b>is </b><b>so </b><b>hot</b>. A man should put a ring <b>on </b>her finger right new.”


    The moment she said this, she sensed a chilling look being shot at her from the side. Eugene was shooting frosty daggers at her with his eyes.


    He growled. “Is this how your family teaches you manners<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    Dory managed to get Mnie’s number in the end. She greeted Mnie enthusiastically with <b>a </b>message but Mnie gave her an indifferent reply.


    Mnie received a message from Yana next. Yana had contacted her <b>to </b><b>gossip </b>and asked if Mnie


    was in Nama


    She replied to Yana with a “yes“, and Yana replied immediately<b>: </b>[That exins a <b>lot</b>. I was wondering why Dory wanted to get your contact information <b>from </b>me.


    [It would’ve slipped my mind if she hadn’t reached <b>out </b><b>to me</b><b>. </b><b>I </b>wanted <b>to </b>tell you that Vi <b>is </b>married.]


    Yana told her that Vi got marriedst year to a divorced <b>cripple </b><b>in </b>his <b>40s</b>.


    She heard that it took Vi less than half a month <b>to </b>marry <b>him</b><b>. </b><b>He </b><b>was </b><b>a </b>known alcoholic, and that was the reason he got divorced from his first wife. He did not have <b>a </b>job and <b>relied </b>on his mother, who owned a tailor shop, to provide for the family.


    A LeapCo employee stayed around the area. When she went to <b>pick </b>up her clothes from the shop<b>, </b>she saw Vi being yelled at by her mother–inw. Vi looked quite pitiful then.


    Yana’s words reminded Mnie of what Matthew said before about giving her a reward.


    What sort of reward was this?


    Mnie did not ask Matthew about this. Her anger at Vi <b>had </b>disappeared following Merry’s birth.


    She believed that Vi would receive her karma sooner orter.


    It seemed like everyone had expected Mnie and Xander to be a <b>couple</b><b>. </b>Yvonne did <b>not </b>even hold back when joking about this. She would always ask Mnie when she was nning <b>to </b>make it <b>official </b><b>with </b>Xander.


    Mnie did not reply<b>. </b>She was well aware of her rtionship with Xander. All that wascking between them <b>was </b>the right time.


    Yvonne encouraged her<b>, </b>saying<b>, </b><b>“</b>You need to be in charge of your own happiness. Xander is a Capricorn who keeps things bottled inside him. He does that better than anyone I know. <b>If </b>you have any feelings for him<b>, </b>you need to be the one who takes action. Besides, everyone can tell that he likes you.”


    Mnie had never confessed to anyone before. Even when she was <b>with </b>Eugene<b>, </b>they got together naturally.


    Yvonne added that Xander’s birthday was <b>just </b>around <b>the </b>corner and Mnie should give him a surprise.


    Mnie thought about this for a long time<b>. </b>She ended <b>up </b>nning <b>a </b>surprise for Xander because Yvonne and Reny had been taking turns brainwashing her into <b>doing </b>something.


    She figured that this could be considered a nice thing to do as a friend even if she was not nning on using the opportunity to confess her <b>feelings</b>.


    However<b>, </b>none <b>of </b>them expected Xander <b>to </b>suddenly receive a call from overseas a day before his birthday. His mother’s condition had worsened.


    Mnie held the phone in her hand as she stared at the carefully decorated room. Sheforted him, sayin, <b>“</b>Don’t worry<b>. </b>Your mother will be fine<b>.</b><b>” </b>


    She was about to ask him when he woulde back but decided not to after some thought.
