Chapter 822

"Were you there that day when Mr. Road's mother came that day?" Tiffany asked. "She kept asking questions about Jewel Fenton. Maybe she disagrees with how Mr. Road handled the situation, too."

Tiffany sighed helplessly. "Well, what can we do since Mr. Road likes her?"

While they were happily chatting away, she pushed the bathroom door open and met Jewel's sharp eyes. Immediately, she froze on the spot, and her mind went blank as she stopped in her tracks awkwardly.

She walked out while talking and caught sight of Tiffany's expression. She quickly sensed something amiss, so she followed Tiffany's gaze and shut her mouth with her snap when she saw Jewel's face.
