Emily laughed at herself when she saw him scuttling away from her.
She was clearheaded now.
She looked downcast with clenching fists, her anger evident all over her face after being rejected. She thought of
the scene at the stairs where Jensen unconsciously shielded Gilda.
ily wondered, “Haven't they been divorced?

“Why did they act like they still cared about each other?

Noticing that, Marilyn sighed slightly and said, “Gilly has left...”
“Grandma, why didn’t you get her to stay here?” Jensen asked, sounding slightly miffed.
“Jensen, to be honest with me, what exactly do you want?” Marilyn sounded displeased. “I asked you to show
Gilly more affection back then, but you ruined it. Now that you are divorced, you are eager to get her back. Why
are you so bitchy?”
“Grandma! What are you talking about?”
Marilyn said angrily, “Have you gotten rid of other women? If my memory servescorrectly, you cheated on
Gilda and got the other woman pregnant.”
Jensen's face darkened at the mention of the past.
Although Marilyn spoiled him, there was nothing she could do to help him regarding this matter.
She said, “It only takes one infidelity to make someone unwelcome. Remember that.
“If Gilda forgives you, you must repent for the rest of your life.
*And if Gilda can’t forgive you, don’t force her. If so, it just means that the story of you two has cto an
end...”
After hearing Marilyn's words, Jensen frowned and returned to his bedroom alone, no longer wanting to deal with
the guests.

After leaving the Harrington residence, Gilda headed straight to a multi-brand boutique in the mall.
It had been a while since Gilda had been here. And the business was doing just fine. Megan hired two shop
assistants to help her.
“Hey, Gilda, what brings you here today?” Megan asked in surprise. Gilda smiled and replied, “I happened to
pass by. How is it going? Can you manage it?”
“Yes, don’t worry! No-problem.” Megan answered and then asked Gilda at the sight of her worried look, “Honey,
what happened to you today? Are you bothered with something?”
Gilda pursed her lips and asked, “Don’t you think it's inappropriate to have a black-and-white picture of a living
person hanging on their wall?”
After all, it was considered unlucky to do so according to Clusia tradition.
Despite not understanding what Gilda was talking about, Megan stated, “I don’t understand why someone would
do that. It sounds weird to me. Anyway, ordinary people wouldn't do that.....
Gilda thought so too.
But she couldn't help thinking about the photo hanging on the wall in that room. Was all this just a coincidence?
