Laura asked, “Were you used to working at the law firm over there after hometown? Are the salaries in New York high?” “Fortunately, it was similar to Los Angeles.”

Back then, she was out shopping with Marie when it suddenly started pouring rain. Jaime came to pick up Maric.
Laura had a great first impression of Jaime, thinking that he was handsome and wealthy, perfect match for someone like Marie, who was a celebrity–level beauty.
Later, she went back to her hometown and her contact with Marie became less frequent. One day, she casually asked about when Marie and Jaime were planning to get married, and Marie said they had broken up.
Laura didn’t ask any further.
When Marie heard Laura ask like this, her hands washing the vegetables stopped, and she lowered her eyelashes, “I had a relationship, but we broke up.”
Laura noticed that Marie didn’t sound very happy, so she didn’t continue to ask further.
She changed the subject, “I made roasted chicken and steak for you tonight, and the vegetarian dishes were blanched lettuce and cucumber salad, how about that?”
Marie said “good.”
Laura’s husband sat behind the stove, tending the fire.
Haylee was playing with Laura’s two–year–old son, Jasper, on the side.
Marie finished washing the vegetables and turned around to see Haylee and Jasper playing happily. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, saying, “Haylee, I didn’t expect you to actually like children.”
She used to always have a cold face, exuding a sense of ruthlessness.
He didn’t look like someone who would like children no matter how you looked at him.
Haylee held an Ultraman toy and amused the children, saying with a blank expression on her face, “This little thing is quite interesting.”
Marie:“…”

Awkward silence.
A moment later, Marie awkwardly chuckled twice and said to Laura, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. My friend, she has a low emotional intelligence and can’t speak well. Please don’t mind, she didn’t mean that. She was actually complimenting Jasper’s cuteness.”
