Sophia had just taken her seat when she glared at Lilin. The little girl was eating without a care in the world, which only upset Sophia. "Who were we supposed to meet when no one was upstairs? The person had finished their meal and left! | think Lilin is just pranking us because she has nothing better to do." Lilin was taken aback by that accusation.

Sophia's accusation led Adam to suspect that Lilin was intentionally pranking them. He grumbled sternly, "When did you learn to play tricks on us?"

After a moment's thought, she changed her response and said, "I was just trying to shake you up a little because you always side with Sophia! Is that so wrong?" "You did it on purpose, then!" Adam frowned.
Lilin retorted, "Hmph. You only believe Sophia and you never believe me! Does it matter whether I'm telling the truth? You'll just treat it as a lie anyway!" Before Adam could respond, Melinda overheard the conversation as she returned to the table and got angry.

Zachary narrowed his eyes and nodded before taking a sip from his glass. It was the sglass that Corinne had drunk from earlier, and he sipped the water from the exact spot Corinne's lips had been.
Meanwhile, the passengers inside an extended MPV outside the restaurant were staring in shock at the table inside the restaurant. They all had a perfect view of the man in the wheelchair through the restaurant window.
Francine was the first to lose control. Tears began to well up after her initial shock subsided. She was prepared to jump out of the car and barge into the restaurant. "That's... That's Jeremy! He's alive!" Aaron and Sunny had to hold her back.
"Calm down!’ "This is no tto be acting rashly." Corinne had earlier instructed them to foot the bill as quickly as possible and leave the restaurant discreetly, though she did not explain why. She also urged them to go out from the back door and avoid the main entrance.
