Chapter 13

“A phone like this is already pretty good!” Jackson interrupted her and looked down as if he was genuinely focused on choosing a phone.

Just then, a voice rang out, “Serenity, is that you?”

Serenity looked up to see Janice coming toward her with another woman by her side. It was clear that the two were out shopping.

As the two drew closer, Serenity realized that the other woman was actually her high school classmate, Amanda.

“What a coincidence! Is this your boyfriend?” Janice asked, her eyes scanning over Jackson from head to toe, sizing him up.

Before Serenity could answer, Amanda said, “Come now, Janice, don’t make such assumptions! I heard from someone that Serenity’s boyfriend is a wealthy heir. Look at how this man is dressed. He doesn’t seem to be the mentioned boyfriend now, does he?”

The man was dressed in cheap clothes, so how could he be the rumored boyfriend?

Amanda even raised a brow after she was done speaking, and an obvious hint of disdain and mockery flashed across her somewhat pretty face.

“Oh, wait. My apologies, I forgot that boyfriend of yours already has a new girlfriend, and they’re about to be engaged! The headlines in the newspaper these days are just filled about the engagement between the Shaw family’s son and the Hall family’s daughter, you know? Now that’s a match made in heaven, even if I say so myself. Ah, by the way, does your new boyfriend know that you’re just a simple janitor now?”

“Amanda, there’s no need to say things that way,” Janice said.

“It’s not like I’ve said anything wrong, right? Didn’t you tell me she’s working as a sanitation worker in the Sanitation Office?” Amanda replied arrogantly.

Back when they were in high school, Serenity had always outshone Amanda. Later, Amanda heard that Serenity had been lucky enough to become the Shaw family’s youngest son, Zeke’s girlfriend, and she had been extremely jealous.
