Chapter 139


    Chapter 139 Frenemies


    Gianna thought that Kate was sharp-eyed as thetter had figured out that Ss and Brian were


    frenemies.


    The scandal in the past had been covered up, therefore only a few people knew that Brian was a


    member of the Nn Family. “They should know each other since they’re both business moguls,”


    Gianna mumbled. Kate looked at her and questioned, “Are you not enticed at all when two brilliant men


    are around you?” Pretending to be nonchnt, Gianna replied, “No, they aren’t my cup of tea.” Taking


    a seat beside the bed, Kate gazed at her and persuaded, “Gianna, many years have passed, so please


    don’t keep looking back. You’re the best woman in my heart, and no one is a good match for you.


    However, I don’t want you to be alone. I want you to have a man who can take care of you and make


    you take off all your disguise so that you won’t have to face all the problems alone. Not all men are as


    jerky as Adrian. At least Ss isn’t. Most people would praise you when you’re sessful, but few


    would save you when you’re in trouble. Both Ss and Brian had helped you when you were in deep


    mud, especially Ss. When was he ever not present when you needed help?” Gianna remained silent


    for a long time and exined, “I won’t fall for anyone again, so it doesn’t matter who is fond of me. It’s


    because they’re good men that I don’t want to hold them up.” Feeling sorry for her best friend, Kate


    gazed at her. She knew that Ganna was hurt deeply on a night seven years ago. Other than Adrian’s


    betrayal, Gianna had let loose of herself on an impulse. Furious, she wanted to take revenge on the


    jerk and made love to a stranger. After that, she was extremely ashamed of herself. Instead of being


    picky, she was afraid that other men would be disdainful of her. “Gianna, don’t lose hope yet. You have


    to believe that your Mr. Right is waiting for you somewhere in the world.” Gianna took a deep breath


    and replied, “Alright, stop lecturing me. Get a carer to take care of me.”


    Kate said, “No way. If Ss finds out about it tomorrow, he will take me to task. Just close your eyes


    and take a rest.”


    Gianna obediently closed her eyes and teased, “I seriously suspect that you’ve been bribed by Ss.”


    Kate was torn betweenughter and exasperation. “If I’ve been bribed, I won’t stay here and let you


    mock me. I would have taken the money and fled.”


    Gianna continued, “Maybe you didn’t agree on the price.” Kate’s lips twitched. “Alright, I’ll discuss with


    Ss tomorrow. I’ll tell him to set the prices for making me disappear for one hour and one night.”


    Gianna threatened, “Discuss with him if you aren’t afraid that I will get even with you after I recover.”


    Kate was rendered speechless by friend’s words.


    The next morning, Kate thought that Ss woulde early, but he was nowhere to be seen by 9 am.


    Gianna kept urging Kate to go home and sleep. Since they had hired a carerst night, it didn’t matter


    that thetter wasn’t there. Worried, Kate insisted, “I’m not sleepy as I had slept enoughst night.”


    After hearing the statement, her best friend urged, “How could you rest well on a chair? Go home. I’m


    really fine.” Just when they were having an argument, Landon swaggered into the room. “Why are you


    here? Is South at the school?” Kate questioned. Landon replied, “Yes. My uncle told me toe over


    and take your ce so that you can go home and sleep.” “What is your uncle doing?” Kate questioned,


    at which Landon shook his head. “I don’t know. Maybe there’s something he has to deal with


    personally, otherwise he wouldn’t have told me toe here.”
