In an instant, it becclear why Jasuddenly asked to stop the car.
On the sidewalk, Mariela walked side by side with a man.
The two of them were facing towards us, not very far away, and we could see their faces clearly.
The man was handsome, elegant in temperament, and dressed impeccably, clearly not an ordinary person
The two of them were talking and laughing, with an intimate posture.

Maguessed that the man was probably Mariela’s fiancée.
Jaopened the car door and walked towards Mariela.
Lennon had been discharged from the hospital for a week.
This week, he was supervised by Mariela every day to eat light meals.
At first, it was fine to eat, but he would also get tired of eating those bland and watery meals every day. Under

guards, which was very embarrassing. They didn’t even have tto hide, so naturally they couldn't talk about it
outside.
So the people in their circle still didn’t know about Mariela’s family background.
Mawas one of the few people in Jaime’s circle who had a good moral compass and did not look down on “poor
Mariela“.
