Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband? novel Chapter 127

The two of them quickly arrived at the private dining room Jade had reserved at the restaurant.

Miranda, with her lively and outgoing personality, immediately bounded toward Jade, who was sitting there sulking. She playfully greeted her with a cheery "Auntie dear" and another affectionate "Auntie darling."

In the past, thanks to Mila, Miranda and Jade had been quite close. Despite not seeing each other for several years, there was no awkwardness between them.

Jade was caught off guard by Miranda's enthusiastic greeting and, despite her mood, couldn't help but feel a bit better.

However, when Mila entered, Jade frowned. "Why are you still wearing a hat indoors? The heating is on; aren't you feeling stuffy?"

Mila rubbed her nose and mumbled, "I'm a bit under the weather, so I don't dare take it off."

"Yes, yes, with this changeable weather, you don't want it to get worse," Miranda chimed in quickly, sitting next to Jade. She deftly shifted the conversation to catch up on how Jade had been, effortlessly moving past the hat issue.

Seeing this, Jade didn't press further. She merely muttered a reminder about taking care of one's health in the cold before signaling for the food to be served.

Mila breathed a sigh of relief and sat a little further away, claiming she didn't want to pass on her cold. The real reason, though, was to avoid Jade noticing anything amiss during the meal.

Jade didn't suspect anything, especially with Miranda beside her, chatting away and serving food, keeping her distracted.

Midway through the meal, Jade pulled a folder from her bag and handed it to Mila.

As Mila opened it, she found information about an upcoming international fashion week and some related design materials.

Jade explained, "With the current timeline, you won't be able to make it to the fashion weeks in March or June this year."

It was true. To design and create a high couture outfit, even without factoring in the mid-process stages like sourcing materials and finalizing designs, the craftsmanship alone could take one to two months. Logically, she couldn't make it to either of those events.

But then what was this about...

Jade continued, "However, you still have a chance for the one in the latter half of the year."
