Danie dropped to her knees from the impact, drawing the attention of passersby.
Caroline was shocked–she never expected her children to retaliate to avenge her.
“You scoundrels!” Danie scolded, lifting her head to find Caroline standing above her.
Danie tried to stand, but Caroline pressed down on her shoulder.
Caroline leaned over with a wide smile and said, “The kids identally bumped into you. You won’t
take it personally, will you?”
She pinched Danie’s shoulder tightly and helped her to her feet. Then, she patted Danie’s shoulder
gently and added, “Be graceful. People are watching.”
Danie forced a strained smile and replied, “Why would I make a scene with kids?”
Caroline smiled and said, “Perfect. We’ll head upstairs now. Goodbye!”

Casey looked at her with a frown. “Even a small injury shouldn’t be neglected.”

Noticing that her sole was already swollen, he stood up and pressed the call bell solemnly.
Soon, a waitress entered, and Casey said, “Get a few warm towels.”
“Sure, sir.”
Danie’s heart beat faster due to Casey’s attentive action, and she lowered her gaze shyly. “Mr.
Jordan, thank you for your concern.”
Casey said, “Please try your best to wear lower heels next time, Ms. Love. You’re always clumsy.”
Danie blushed. “I shall follow your suggestion then, Mr. Jordan.”
The waitress brought warm towels, and Casey ced one on Danie’s sole. He asked, “Does it
hurt?”
Danie nodded and shook her head swiftly. “It’s fine.”
Casey appeared guilty. “It’s the first day of yourpany’s opening. I was thinking of celebrating it with
you, yet I got you hurt.”
Danie waved her hand dismissively. “I was careless. It’s not your fault.”
