Chapter 127

The two of them quickly arrived at the private dining room Jade had reserved at the restaurant.

Miranda, with her lively and outgoing personality, immediately bounded toward Jade, who was sitting there sulking. She playfully greeted her with a cheery "Auntie dear" and another affectionate "Auntie darling."

In the past, thanks to Mila, Miranda and Jade had been quite close. Despite not seeing each other for several years, there was no awkwardness between them.

Jade was caught off guard by Miranda's enthusiastic greeting and, despite her mood, couldn't help but feel a bit better.

Mila rubbed her nose and mumbled, "I'm a bit under the weather, so I don't dare take it off."

"Yes, yes, with this changeable weather, you don't want it to get worse," Miranda chimed in quickly, sitting next to Jade. She deftly shifted the conversation to catch up on how Jade had been, effortlessly moving past the hat issue.

Seeing this, Jade didn't press further. She merely muttered a reminder about taking care of one's health in the cold before signaling for the food to be served.
