Chapter 302: Griffin Becomes a Little Fanboy

Griffin had already been taken away by the ambulance and was likely close to the hospital by now. Jared's gaze finally shifted to Juliet, but it only lingered for a few seconds before he turned his attention back to Tina.

"I'm Juliet, Tina's cousin," Juliet introduced herself quickly, surprised that Jared didn't seem interested in her at all. She was a famous actress, after all. Men usually fell head over heels for her. But Jared ignored her completely. It was intriguing. "It's getting late," Jared said softly, his voice full of concern only when he spoke to Tina. "Tina, let me take you home."

Tina didn't refuse, but Hayden mumbled beside them, "As expected, he forgets his friends when he sees a beautiful woman! Seeing Serena, he's lost his soul!"

He didn't dare complain too loudly, fearing Jared might abandon him again like last time and force him to eat garlic.

Soon, they arrived at Whispering Pines. Jared dropped them off at the gate and left.

Juliet watched his departing figure and couldn't help but call out to Tina, curious. "Tina, are you really just in an arranged marriage with Mr. Farrell?"

Everyone knew about the alliance between the Farrell family and the Reed family, a union of mutual benefits. But today, she noticed that their relationship didn't seem purely businesslike. Jared had been engaged to Tina even before she was found. Their relationship seemed different from what the rumors suggested.

"Yes?" Tina raised an eyebrow at Juliet.

"He seems to care about you a lot, and you don't seem to mind his affection," Juliet said bluntly. Tina's eyes flickered slightly but quickly regained her usual calm demeanor. "That's your misconception."

Their engagement was arranged by their elders. She never thought this relationship would continue or that they would get married. As they spent more time together, her attitude towards Jared changed, but she still couldn't be sure if they would have a future together.

She was focused on investigating her mother's death and couldn't afford any distractions. She hadn't considered what would happen with Jared once she uncovered the truth.
