Jade Carlson stared blankly at Nathaniel Summers.
Since she moved into the Summers Family, when had Nathaniel Summers ever shown her a kind face?
She had put on the most pitiable and humble guise, like a stray dog arriving at the Summers' door begging for mercy with a wagging tail. Although Nathaniel Summers had taken her in, he had always treated her with indifference.
Today, Nathaniel Summers had actually taken the initiative to ask her to accompany him?
Jade was greatly surprised. Could it be that the time she spent being submissive and lowly had finally had an effect, softening his heart?
No matter what, this was a good thing; at least her efforts had not been in vain.
Jade subtly lowered her eyelids, taking a couple of drags from the cigarette in her mouth.
This cigarette was strong; as she smoked, her head began to feel a little heavy. After the heaviness came a sense of light-headed ecstasy, and her limbs were suffused with indescribable comfort.
