Hervey nodded and said. “It’s like this…”
Howard listened quietly, his brows furrowing more and more. He thought, “So it is said. “Alright, 1 understand. It’s getting late. You should go back and rest”
“Yes, sir,” Hervey said.

Howard wheeled himself back to the bedroom, lost in thought. Slowly, he reached the bedside, opened the nightstand drawer, and took out a box- it contained the tortoiseshell hairpin. He held it in his hand, stroking it absentmindedly.
wer when I knocked.
“Howard” The door opened, and Yvette had come to bring him hot cocoa, saying “I thought you were asleep? You didn’t answer What were you thinking…..”
She didn’t finish her sentence, as her expression changed abruptly. She had seen it! Howard snapped back to reality, quickly trying to hide the tortoiseshell hairpin in his palm.
“What are you hiding?” Yvette’s face darkened, cold as ice, as away? Why is it still here!”
che stepped forward and said. “I’ve already seen it! Howard, didn’t you say you threw
“Calm down, Howard frowned, speaking indifferently, “I haven’t forgotten what I promised you”
“Haven’t forgotten?” Yvette didn’t believe him. She seemed to be smiling, but her voice was tinged with tears and she said, “Howard, I’ve endured humiliation and compromise for you, but that doesn’t mean you can bully me without limits!”
With that, she rushed at Howard, saying. “The hairpin was what you promised to throw away. It shouldn’t exist anymore. I’ll throw it away for you. I
She grabbed Howard’s hand, trying to snatch the tortoiseshell hairpin
“Calm down” However, Howard was prepared and didn’t let her succeed. As Yvette lunged forward, he raised his arm to block her.
“Ah!” But this caused Yvette to stumble and fall to the ground. The hot cocoa in her hand was knocked over, and the scalding cocoa splashed out, burning her arm.
“Yvette!” Howard was startled. He hadn’t expected this. He quickly wheeled over to Yvette and extended his arm, saying, “Are you okay? Get up! Is your arm alright?”
But Yvette ignored him, her gaze falling on the floor, her smile cold. She said, “Howard, you treat me like this… you actually treat me like this? Suddenly, she got up, not even looking at Howard, and ran out, holding her arm.
“Yvette? Howard hurriedly wheeled after her, but he couldn’t catch up with someone running. He picked up his phone and dialed a number, saying, “Hervey, it’s me.”
That night, Jelacrity was a mix of rain and snow, damp and gloomy.
After returning from the golf course, Josiah and Sienna hadn’t gone out again. After dinner, Siena cast her phone screen, and they leaned together to watch the TV show she hadn’t finished.
Gradually, Josiah couldn’t sit still

“Who is n!” Josiah said
Sienna looked at him amusingly and said, “It’s definitely for you, go open the door.”
Josiah reluctantly got up. He thought, “Who could it be? In this weather, who would leave the comfort of home to come find me!
As soon as the door opened, “Yvette?” Josiah said.
Yvette rushed in, her eyes red from crying. Seeing Josiah made her even more wronged. Tears streamed down her face as she said. “Josiah…” She took two steps forward, lowered her eyelids, and threw herself into Josial’s arms.
Josiah was taken aback, his arms raised high, his face turning pale with surprise. “Yvette…” he was about to speak, wanting to
“Who is it?” Then. Sienna appeared from inside, her arms crossed and her long hair loose.

Josiah was even more thistered, breaking out in a cold sweat as he said. “Sienna.” He spread his hands, trying to say he didn’t know what was happening.
Bat Sienna just smiled, her lips curving, and deliberately lowered her voice, saying, “Should I leave you two alone?”
Hearing her voice. Yvette was startled, lifting her head from Josiah’s embrace. She said in surprise. “How how are you here?”
“Hmm“” Sienna found it amusing, her smile deepening as she said, “Is it strange for me to be here?”
Yvette The atmosphere was tense, and Josiah interjected, “Sienna is my girlfriend.”

“I know that.” Yvette nodded, of course she knew. But looking at Josiah and then at Sienna, she just didn’t expect that they thought. They were cohabiting”
Sienna gave a faint, cold laugh, nodded at Josiah, and said, “It seems your darling thinks I shouldn’t be here. Im in the way” She pointed upstairs and said. “I’ll go upstairs”
Then, thinking it wasn’t right, she continued, “No, I should leave. She thought, Since his darling arrived, what am I doing still standing here? Sienna indicated she understood nodded, and walked towards the entrance, saying, ‘I’ll leave now….
“Sienna.” Josiah urgently grabbed her arm, saying. “Don’t be like this….
“What’s wrong with me?” Sienna blinked innocently, saying. Tm giving you space. Is that a mistake?”
“Sienna Josiah said.
“Sienna“” Yvette couldn’t bear to listen anymore. At this moment, her disgust for Sienna had reached its peak. She said, “You’ve had enough! Is this how you treat Josiah?”
“Hmm“” Sienna became interested, breaking free from Josiah, and said, “Then how have I treated him?”
“From the moment I came in, every word of yours has been an insult to him.” Wette’s gaze was like a nail, fixing on Sienna. “This is the second time in front of me! Do you have no basic respect for your boyfriend?” Yvette said.
“Ah!” Sienna looked surprised, saying, “You think him liking you is an insult to him?”
“Sienna

“Ouch” Sienna covered her chest, startled, saying. “I’m not deal, I can hear you. Why ar
Why are you shouting so loud?”
“Sienna” Yvette couldn’t stand her feigned innocence and said. “Josiah and I have grown up together. We have a closer relationship than ordinary friends. It’s okay if you can’t understand our feelings, but please don’t insult him.”
“You really are… Sienna didn’t know what expression to make, just shaking her head and laughing. She said, “I’m giving you space, and you still say I’m insulting him. What do you want exactly?”
“Sienna” Finally, Josiah spoke up. He held Sienna’s wrist, his face not looking too pleased, and said in a restrained but gentle tone,
