NovelEnglish—— Chapter 404 Rejection Adeline seemed to lose focus momentarily. Then, she said, "Why do you want to know about this? Isn't it normal for friends to lose contact?" "But you grew up together, and you must have a deeper relationship than most people. Something in particular must have happened to make you suddenly break off contact with each other, right?"

Wentworth, I won't hide things from
you. I suspect that the Jessica we! ra seeing now isn't the real Jessica.
