Chapter 96: Elizabeth Causes Trouble Again

Tina kicked Jared hard under the table without changing her expression. What exactly was going on between the two of them, Jennie wondered, didn't he have any idea himself? Furthermore, she noticed that Jared seemed addicted to holding her hand, seizing every opportunity to stick close.

Suddenly, a news alert popped up on Tina's phone: "Chairman of the Reeds Company urgently hospitalized!" Tina tried to pull her hand away from Jared's grasp without success, her gaze turning icy as she contemplated whether flipping the table and starting a fight would scare Jennie.

Jared, unabashed, put down his chopsticks and considerately unlocked his phone to open the news article, handing it to Tina. Tina glanced down, seeing an image of medical personnel carrying someone out of Moon Gate Estate and into an ambulance. Despite the mosaic blur over the image, the clothes made it clear it was Elizabeth. Well, the photo was pleasing enough to put her in a good mood, so she decided not to settle scores with Jared for the moment. Jennie, watching the couple's interaction with a goofy smile, suddenly lit up with a call. "Hello, Hugo, what's happened?" Whatever Hugo said, Jennie's expression grew increasingly grave.

"Tina," she sighed after hanging up, "your dad called to say your grandmother was hospitalized, and he wants us to visit her."

"Haven't we already cut ties with them?" Tina's tone cooled.

"That's true," sighed Jennie, "but she is still your dad's mother. There's an old saying, 'Blood ties cannot be severed, and kinship can sometimes grow distant.' Out of filial duty, your dad has to show his face."

Jared knew Tina was upset as she played with her noodles in silence, and he scratched her palm to comfort her, but she just gave him a cold glance.

"Don't worry, though," Jennie paused before continuing, "your dad is sensible. Let him go by himself; we won't get involved for now."
