Chapter 1173


    After joking around for a while, two colleagues entered the pantry.


    Since they usually got along well, they exchanged greetings before one of them asked Lina and Renee,


    “Do you know why Meanie Mollie cleared out that area where your workstations are?”


    Lina paused, wondering what purpose that cleared area could serve besides cing desks, chairs, and


    stools. “What is it for?”


    “Rumor has it that a new intern ising!”


    “Huh?” Lina and Renee furrowed their brows, looking at each other.


    Was it really just a new intern, or could it be someone in a managerial position? Did it warrant such a


    grand gesture?


    The other colleague chimed in. “ording to some insider information, this intern has quite a


    background!”


    “Do you know who it is?”


    “It’s… Meanie Mollie’s niece. I think her name is Gia Chapman?”


    “Yes, that’s the name! She’s from Jangasas.”


    Lina froze, unable to recover for a while.


    The two colleagues continued discussing. “I’m sure I heard the name right. It sounded unpleasant!”


    “Are you feeling jealous? Meanie Mollie bringing her niece in as an intern. Will this girl step on our


    heads?”


    “Would she dare? I’m an expert at dealing with such people. I specialize in taking them down!”


    As they passionately discussed, the two colleagues looked at Lina and Renee, frowning.


    “What’s wrong with you two?”


    “Yeah, why are you so distracted?”


    Lina snapped out of her daze first, forcing a smile and responding perfunctorily before pulling Renee


    out of the pantry.


    On their way back to their workstations, neither said a word, lost in their thoughts.


    Finally, Renee couldn’t help but ask quietly, “Cuz… could it really be Gia?”


    Lina curled her lips. How many Gias could there be?


    It was quite timely. She had been nning to settle the score with Gia, and now she had personally

    Lina took a deep breath, going through all the old and new grudges in her mind. She closed her eyes


    and opened them again, imprinting four words in her mind: ‘Revenge is a must!’


    “Lina, should we go home and inform your parents? They’ll fight for justice for you!”


    “Not now.” Lina smiled lightly. “I want to see how Gia will handle me first!”


    …


    Cordelia visited the Thompsons and handed over hand-baked cranberry cookies. She brewed a cup of


    secret-recipe floral milk tea for Linda.


    Linda epted them with a smile and praised, “Cordelia, your baking skills are as good as ever! You


    haven’t lost your touch!”


    “Of course.” Cordelia raised her eyebrows. “I used to run a cafe, you know!”


    “Nichs used to cause trouble there when you ran the cafe!”


    “He was the worst, always picking on Zephyr. Every time he came, it seemed like he was ready to start


    a fight!”


    As they spoke, the two burst intoughter.


    On this sunny summer day, gentle breezes blew, and fluffy clouds floated in the sky like cotton candy.


    Under the shade of a tree in the yard, the two women sat with colorful flowers blooming on the green


    grass. Memories enveloped them like a gentle breeze caressing their faces.


    “Time passes so quickly.” Cordelia sighed softly. “The children have grown so much in the blink of an


    eye…”


    Linda’s smile faded as she asked,”Oh, by the way, Cordelia, has Pammy beening to your house


    oftentely?”


    “Yes, she has.” Cordelia nodded with a smile, patting Linda’s hand. “Don’t worry. I’ve never treated her


    as a daughter-inw. I always consider her as my own daughter!”


    “I see…” Linda’s expression dimmed. “Is she going to see Zuko?”


    Cordelia was taken aback. “Who else would she visit if not Zuko?”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    “Is she going to see Zuko or… that couple?”
