I gently sighed and said with a face full of helplessness, "Stop teasing me."
Lally smiled and came to my ear, whispering, "Elena didn't go to the hospital. She probably thinks it's too embarrassing t o do so."
As soon as she said that, Elena was seen walking in from outside of the research institute.
She had changed her clothes, and rage flickered in her beautiful eyes when she saw us. She looked as though she was eager to devour us alive.
Lally was not intimidated by her and looked over with a provocative gaze while saying meaningfully, "A certain someone thinks others have to do things her way just because she's beautiful. A person's temperament and education are equally important. Otherwise, having an empty shell is really not of much use."
I tugged at Lally's sleeve and whispered," That’s enough, stop it. Shannon is here.
Theo has sent someone to receive her. Do you have a lot of work to do now? I can do it with you if you still have a lot to finish.
Let's have dinner together at Mr. Collins' place tonight."
Lally froze. "Mr. Collins? Shannon's grandpa?"
I nodded. "Shannon is idle all day and wants to come over and join us. She's taking the chance to see her grandpa too.”
Lally looked at Elena but did not continue t o ridicule her.
At this moment, a car stopped outside the entrance, and we recognized it to be Jordan's car. When the car door opened, Shannon got out of the car.
Cally glanced at me in surprise.
I was equally surprised, not expecting Jordan to be the one to receive her.
Shannon was wearing a soft-colored dress today. Her makeup looked very clean. She had a particularly pure look overall.
