Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband?

Chapter 137

It was early on New Year's Day, and the brisk morning air was filled with excitement. After exchanging warm wishes and having breakfast, Jade, along with Mila and Eugene, set off to St. Michael's Cathedral to offer prayers for blessings.

During the drive, Mila occasionally checked her phone, hoping for messages. Besides the flood of greetings from friends, there was nothing more. She had already video-called her great-aunt and her mother-in-law to extend her New Year wishes.

Jade frequently donated to the cathedral, and her generosity was well-known. It wasn't long before one of the clergy members approached them, inviting them into the inner sanctuary for tea and a brief rest.
