Chapter 38 Chapter 38

The following day, Angela received a call from Beatrice.

"Angie" Beatrice said, "I've been invited by an old friend to spend the weekend at a resort. Are you free? Do you want to join me! I heard there's horseback riding and an amusement park there."

Initially, Beatrice wasn't been on going, but the idea of taking Angela along for some relaxation appealed to her. She thought it might also be an excellent opportunity to invite Kenneth and perhaps mend their strained relationship,

Angela, surprised, thought for a moment and realized she had no plans for the weekend, so she agreed.

him!"

Before Angela could finish her words, Beatrice had already hung up

When Angela tried calling back, it was clear Beatrice was already on the phone with Kenneth.

Angela sighed helplessly, put her phone aside, and began her morning routine.

As she was preparing to set off, she noticed several messages from Kenneth.

[Angela, what did you tell my grandma about Jennie!)

My grandma already has a bad impression of Jennie. You telling her about moving out has made her threaten me. She says she won't let Jennie off if I don't bring you back to Vista Villa!] What have you done to make my gra

Realizing Kenneth's messages defending Jennifer, Angels, expressionless, deleted the texts before heading to work.
