Chapter 243: The Jade Bracelet

Jared Farrell pressed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. "You need to come pick us up right now! No one else is allowed to do it! Otherwise, we will never forgive you!" Marie demanded. Sophia chimed in, "Yes, we will never forgive you!"

"Tina, I need to go to the airport to pick up my mom and Sophia," Jared Farrell explained as he stood up. "I'll be back later." He glanced at the Reed family members and asked, "Do you want to come with me?" It would save her from dealing with these people.

Tina leaned back in her chair, looking lazy. "No, I'll go see Marie later." "Alright!" Jared Farrell didn't say anything more. If she wanted to stay and deal with these people, so be it.

After apologizing to Annabelle and Jasper, Jared Farrell was about to leave. After taking a couple of steps, he turned back to Lily Ward and said, "By the way, Miss Ward, unless it's something important, don't greet me anymore." He said this to Lily Ward but looked at Tina with eyes full of expectation for praise. "I'm very committed to male virtues."

With that, he walked out without looking back. Audrey Woodwind, who was drinking tea, spat it out onto Griffin's face. "Damn!" Griffin jumped up from the sofa in embarrassment. "Audrey, are you insane?" "Sorry, sorry," Audrey Woodwind apologized while giving Jared Farrell a strange look. Did she mishear? Jared Farrell said he was committed to male virtues? What nonsense!

Griffin glared at Audrey Woodwind angrily before rushing upstairs to change clothes. Lily Ward's smile froze on her face. Jared Farrell had made it clear; if she continued to pursue him, everyone would see through her intentions. She glanced at Tina with some reluctance but saw Tina looking back at her disdainfully as if all her thoughts were laid bare. She lowered her eyes in frustration, gripping her pants until they were wrinkled.

Willow reached over and patted her hand subtly to comfort her, signaling not to rush things. Once Jared Farrell left, the atmosphere in the living room changed noticeably.

Liliosa seemed even more aggressive now, glaring at Tina like a predator eyeing its prey. Willow and Lily Ward occasionally showed contemptuous looks toward Tina.
