The ring car horns from the back snapped N back to reality. She quickly pulled over to the side of the road.


    Her hands were shaking as she picked up her phone.


    The call was still connected, and Vrie’s anxious voice came through. “N, what happened? Are you okay? Are you on your way to work? I shouldn’t have told you this now!”


    N wiped her misty eyes and replied quietly, “I’m fine. My phone. just fell.”


    “I’m d you’re okay… I really shouldn’t have called you now…” Vrie’s voice was filled with regret.


    In her anger upon seeing the news, she had called N impulsively.. She deeply regretted it now, fearing she would never forgive herself if something happened to N.


    “Yeah, I need to get back to driving. Talk to youter.” With that, N ended the call.


    Taking a deep breath, she opened a web browser to search for news about Damon and Reba. Every link was about their official reconciliation.

    “Haha, I told you, Mr. Sumner was just ying around. None of you believed me!”


    “I wonder if she can still make Mr. Sumner look at her after this, especially in front of his true love!”


    N stood in front of the elevator, ignoring thements around her.

    The woman was momentarily startled by N’s icy gaze. Regaining herposure, she sneered and said without remorse, “Sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”


    Before she could say more, N pped her across the face.
