My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Kelsey and I hadn't didn't talk for long.

I initially had planned to directly return to the villa. However, after thinking about it, I decided to make a trip to Irvin's place instead.

However, not long after starting my journey, the car came to a stop right at the luxury building at the city center.

Many drivers hurriedly got out of their cars to check what the commotion was. It was obvious that something had happened.

I was not one who liked being nosy. But since my car was blocked, I wasn't going anywhere. So, I joined the bandwagon and got out of the car. I got hold of a lady and asked about what happened.

Evidently, middle-aged ladies only knew two things: playing cards, and being all up in others' business. When the woman saw me asking, she immediately lit up as she explained, "Oh, young lady, if you're in a hurry, you'd better find a way to leave first. Someone's trying to jump off a building; I heard that it's the ex-wife of the head of the Granger Group who had just passed away. The rich and powerful family had a hard time. Her ex-husband had just died, yet she was goaded into jumping off a building by his former mistress. The daughter of the Roberts Group head in Ucrebury is really something. She took the inheritance and forced the ex-wife to jump off a building. She committed a great sin!"

Below the building, a commotion went on as the crowd started to scream. The middle-aged woman didn't say anything more and immediately rushed forward and squeezed herself into the crowd to watch the

scene.
