"Let me go over to eavesdrop on their conversation." Anne winked at Luna. "If this woman is somehow related to Fiona and is here to take revenge on you and Joshua, she'll definitely recognize you, but as for me…"
She continued with a gleeful look. "Even though you and I are best friends, John and I are far too distant from you and Joshua's world, and we rarely show up in public together. Not even Fiona knew much about our friendship, so this woman won't be the wiser. It's better if I eavesdrop instead of you!"
With that, she put down her cup and, feigning the need to go to the washroom, deliberately strode past Jacqueline and James' table.
She was right; Jacqueline did not remember her at all. When she passed by their table, Jacqueline's gaze did not even falter as she continued her conversation with James.
Soon, Luna's phone chimed with Anne's messages, which she was sent from the washroom.
[I heard them talking about some kind of debt…but I'm not sure who they're talking about. Does Adrian owe a lot of money here in Banyan City?]
Luna could not help frowning when she saw this. According to Joshua, Adrian had indeed taken out many loans during this past year in Banyan City. Could this be the reason Jacqueline was meeting with a loan shark like James on the day of her wedding?
[Oh, I also heard that Jacqueline girl say something about time running out…but I was too far away and couldn't hear anything after this. Are they still talking? Shall I go back to our table?]
Luna furrowed her brow and instinctively glanced in Jacqueline's direction. [Okay, you can come back.]
Perhaps Jacqueline was just worried about James causing a scene at her wedding and thus was meeting him to discuss terms about Adrian's loans.
[Okay!]
