Chapter 683: Truly a Disciple of Jasper

The three uncles were ready, and together with Tina, they prepared to leave. That night at the Reed family residence, Juliet and Linden returned home after attending an event, too tired to even remove their makeup. Damian, sitting in the living room, smiled upon their arrival and said, "Back already? There's something delicious in the kitchen."

Juliet stretched lazily and was about to speak when a knock on the door interrupted her. "Who could that be at this hour?" she wondered aloud. Opening the door, she was startled to see a familiar figure; for a moment, she thought she was mistaken.

Rubbing her eyes and looking again, she exclaimed, "Tina?" She was bewildered! Since the incident involving Jasper and Annabelle, Tina had not visited the Reeds. Although Juliet occasionally saw Tina, those instances were rare due to Tina's busy schedule. She remembered the last time she saw Tina was half a year ago on her way to the office, where they exchanged hurried greetings.

A sudden uneasy feeling surged within her. Since their grandmother's death, Tina had moved out of the Reed household. The last time she came was to apprehend Jasper. Without any apparent reason for her visit, Juliet feared something was about to happen. "Oh, please no!" she thought, "My heart can't take another shock!"

Damian was equally surprised by Tina's sudden appearance and asked, "Tina, what brings you here all of a sudden? Is something the matter?"

With a slight curve of her red lips, Tina looked up at him and asked softly, "Am I not welcome?"

"How could that be?" Damian quickly ushered her inside, saying with a laugh, "We're more than happy to have you; how could we not welcome you? Please, have a seat!"

Tina sat on the sofa and turned to Juliet, "How have you been lately?"

Seeing Tina's smile, Juliet felt a weight lift off her chest, as it seemed nothing serious was amiss. She took a beverage from the fridge and handed it to Tina, smiling, "I've been quite good. I recently won an award and will be shooting a movie in a few days. It's directed by a renowned filmmaker, and I really like the script."

Tina nodded, "Good! Keep it up!"

Juliet hummed in acknowledgment, then asked, "How about you? I saw your post yesterday. Did you and Mr. Farrell get registered?"

Juliet had once harbored feelings for a man who had helped her, vowing to marry him. However, she only recently discovered that this man was Jared! She felt no jealousy towards Tina for marrying Jared; instead, she was happy for her. After all, the man who had once aided her was merely a shadow in her heart, and she hadn't even known what he looked like before she knew it was Jared. Had he been unmarried, she would have pursued her love without hesitation. Now, she graciously stepped aside and wished Jared and Tina well.
