Serena Sullivan was worried and followed Claire Sullivan over.

Mrs. Kane saw that it was Claire and Serena, the mother-daughter duo, and she gave a mocking smile.

"What, found time to come see me?"

After paralyzing The Dowager Kane, Mrs. Kane had tried to meet up with Claire multiple times.

Claire felt distant from her, thinking there was nothing to talk about, apart from attending Nina’s birthday party at The Ford Family’s place along with Simon and others, they did not meet privately.

Knowing the relationship between Wendy and Felix, Claire was even less willing to meet.

"I have something to ask you."

Claire said straightforwardly, scrutinizing Mrs. Kane opposite her.

Both women were around the same age, but one was radiant and well-maintained, while the other’s skin was sallow and extremely haggard without makeup.

In terms of looks, Wendy wasn’t lacking in her younger days, otherwise she wouldn’t have caught Mr. Kane’s attention.

Over the years, she didn’t dare to dress up freely and spent her days dealing with The Ford Family’s affairs, pleasing The Dowager Kane and June Kane, naturally causing her looks to wither faster, unlike Claire who was evidently carefully maintained over the years.

"I don’t know what you want to ask."

Wendy was smart; she guessed what Claire intended to ask right away.

"You do know." Claire said assertively.

"Twenty years ago, you touched my phone, didn’t you?" Ever since learning that she was betrayed by someone close, Claire had been thinking back.

The time had passed long, and memories might no longer be complete, but there were very few people who could have accessed her phone.

Wendy was one of them!

"What phone?"

Wendy smiled, pretending not to understand.

"But what about you, Claire, how come you’re still with Simon! Have you forgotten his fickle affection, or are you just debasing yourself?"

Earlier, hearing Wendy say such things, Claire had no feelings about it.

Seeing Wendy clearly now, Claire lowered her voice and retorted, "What, are you trying to push me together with Felix?"

Being guessed right about her intentions, Wendy’s smile grew wider.

"Are you serious or just watching for laughs?"

"Serious." Wendy replied with a smile, "Do you believe me when I say that?"

"Claire, I’m saying this as a friend; finding a man who likes you so much isn’t easy."

"After more than twenty years, Felix’s feelings for you haven’t changed at all!"

Such words not only did Serena find laughable, but Claire herself felt it was ridiculous.

"Ha ha!"

Claire couldn’t help but laugh, looking at Wendy’s face full of smiles, the false facade, she coldly asked, "Me and Felix, and what about you?"

"Could you possibly accept Felix being surrounded by other women?"

"Why not!" Wendy replied directly, this left Claire stunned.

There were still people so generous, sending off someone they liked, and accepting herself as well.

"Wendy, your worldview truly makes one ashamed!"

Claire shook her head, unable to believe she would be friends with Wendy; was Wendy not like this back then, or did she just not see it?

"A man like Felix, even with many lovers outside, is still worth it."

Wendy replied with a smile, Claire couldn’t stand it anymore; she stood up to leave, not noticing the streak of mockery on Wendy’s lips.

This mockery Claire didn’t see, but Serena saw it at the side.

Serena stared at Wendy, feeling her gaze, Wendy looked up and was slightly taken aback.
