Chapter 640
“Once, I overheard some classmates speaking ill of Sandra behind her back. I even had a big argument with them. 1 genuinely treated her well. It wasn’t just to show off, as she claimed…” Jaida buried her face in her hands, her shoulders trembling as she cried.
Marie didn’t know how to comfort her, so she gently patted her back.
“Perhaps I really did something wrong,” Jaida choked out.“Sandra is too sensitive and insecure. Maybe I should be more considerate of her feelings.”
Marie sighed, “You should be more cautious in making friends…”
Jaida cried for a while, and by the time she reached the front door of her house, her eyes were red.
The car stopped.
Jaida wiped away her tears and said, “Thank you, Mariela. I can never repay you for saving my life. If you ever need any help in the future, feel free to ask.”
Marie said, “Alright, I won’t be polite.”

As soon as Marie left Jaida’s house, the receptionist at the law firm told her that Lennon had arrived.
As soon as Marie pushed open the office door, Lennon quickly stood up and walked over. He anxiously looked Marie up and down, “Marie, are you okay? I heard you fought with someone last night. Did you get hurt?
Marie stood in place and looked at Lennon in confusion.“Who did you hear it from?
The man’s eyes were filled with worry as he replied, “My friend at the police station.”
Marie’s emotions were unclear.“Then you should know that Jaída was drugged, and those people were targeting her. In fact, it had nothing to do with me. I just saved Jaida.”
“I knew it.” Lennon breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Marie was fine. “I heard that Jaida is safe, and all the people involved have been arrested.”
Marie nodded and said, “I’m fine too. With Haylee there, those people are no match for her.”
“It’s good you’re safe.”
Just as Lennon finished speaking, his phone rang.
He answered the phone.“I am going back now.”
After hanging up the phone, Lennon said to Marie, “Marie, I bought some nutritional supplements for you to improve your health. Remember to take them. I need to handle something at the office, so I gotta go.”
Marie glanced at the gift boxes placed on the table.
Colorful and exquisite boxes were piled up on the table.
Marie was a bit speechless. “I didn’t get hurt. Why buy so many nutritional supplements?”
“You can eat it even if you’re not injured.” Lennon raised his hand and gently touched Marie’s head.“Marie, next time you’re in danger, don’t risk your life again.”
