The next morning, while Jeanne was still sitting on the toilet bowl, she received Monica's call.

She answered, "Monica..."

"JEANNE! I'm losing my mind! Oh my god!" Monica's furious voice came from the other end of the phone. She sounded like she was suffering a meltdown and was screaming crazily.

"Dr. Jones made you mad?" Jeanne was rather calm.

"What? Don't even bring that man into this! He has nothing to do with this!"

"Then, what's wrong?"

"Jasmine, your little b*tchy stepsister! Did you know what she posted online?"

"What?" Jeanne furrowed her brows.

"She posted, and I quote, 'Thank you, Uncle Edward.', with a picture of that sapphire from last night! Oh my god! Is Edward Swan out of his mind?! He outbid Eden just to get the sapphire for Jasmine?! Ridiculous!"

Jeanne remained quiet. Something felt strange and it was not a comfortable feeling.

"I know I left earlier than you yesterday but I heard Edward... Fourth Master Swan wanted to give you the sapphire. I didn't even get to ask you about that and it ended up in Jasmine's hand?" "I said no to the gift."

"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR GODDAMN MIND?!" Monica screamed. "I thought it was a rumor! That Edward Swan

doesn't react to women?!"

Jeanne had to move the phone away from the deafening scream.

"Now that Jasmine has that piece of stone, she'll show it off! She's already aggrandizing what Eden did for her before this and now with the stone from Fourth Master Swan, it'll only get worse!" "Just let her do what she wants," Jeanne said without being concerned.

"Have you forgotten how that b*tch snatched your man? How did your father beat you up and toss you out of the house? If I were you, I would f*cking kill that b*tch!"

"Okay, calm down. I'm in the toilet. I'll talk to you later." Jeanne did not want to talk about Jasmine with Monica while sitting on the toilet bowl.
