Without any prior agreement, both Mia and Leo clapped in unison for Jade who was sitting at the back.

Mia asked, "Jade, are you a silver-tongued devil or what?"

With an air of arrogance, Jade fluffed her bangs and smirked. "Hmph, I already planned to expose that bastard when I heard about it from Chad last night.
