Pretty Woman

That night, the group of five dined out and later attended the ballet show they had planned.
While Jean wasn’t particularly fond of such events, Penny was brimming with excitement. Not wanting
to dampen her enthusiasm, he silently stayed by her side.
During the performance, the auditorium’s lights dimmed, with only the stage shining brightly, casting a
soft glow over the audience.
In the flickering light, Jean’s gaze was drawn to Neera.
The dim lighting accentuated her features, making her appear even more stunning. Her eyes were
reminiscent of a clear spring, brighter at that moment due to her focus.
He fixed his eyes on her, a smile naturally forming on his face. When he looked away, a gentle laughter
twi nkled in his eyes.
Marnie found herself in the hospital, having been unconscious for two hours.
Both the Garcia and Fain families were present in the room, providing comfort and ensuring Marnie
was well.
“Grandma, do you still feel uncomfortable? Are you still feeling dizzy?”
“Mom, you gave me such a fright. When I got the news that you’d fainted, I immediately dropped
everything to rush here. I’m so relieved that you’re fine!”
After voicing his worry, Alfonso’s expression darkened when he faced Adriana.
He reprimanded her, “What kind of daughter are you? Before this, you hardly visited our parents after
coming back. Now, you’d upset her to the point of fainting! Your audacity grows day by day!”
Adriana’s face remained blank as he berated her, choosing not to retort. Deep down, she knew she
was responsible for Marnie’s condition.
Susan intervened, urging, “Enough, stop scolding Adriana. She didn’t intend for this to happen. Why
are you being so harsh?”
Turning to Adriana, she added, “Your mom is looking forward to you coming home. She’s unwell; aren’t
you going to consider coming home? If you don’t, she might get even more upset.”
Everyone’s attention shifted to Adriana at Susan’s words.
Adriana looked conflicted. She frowned and was unsure of how to respond.
Marnie’s frustration intensified upon seeing Adriana’s hesitation.
Enough! Stop persuading her!” she exclaimed. “She can do as she pleases. If she doesn’t wish to
return, so be it! She clearly doesn’t value me or our family. Why should she come home? She probably
wouldn’t care even if I were gone!”
Qaylah spotted Adriana’s indifferent expression.
were gone!”
Qaylah spotted Adriana’s indifferent expression.
With a gentle smile, she chimed in, “Marnie, you shouldn’t say such things. We all know the kind of
person Adriana is. She’s always been a dutiful daughter. I’m sure that she won’t abandon you. Stop
saying such things, they might hurt her feelings.”
Susan subtly motioned to Alfonso.
Recognizing his wife’s signal, he let out a heavy sigh.
He uttered, “I might have been a little too harsh earlier, but I’m just worried. When you’re away, Mom
and Dad are always thinking of you. They even shed tears sometimes. They’ve aged, and their health
isrit what it used t6 be. Who knows when we’ll see each other again after you leave? So, can you come
home and stay for a while? We should reunite as a family. You should stop upsetting them.”
Hearing this, Adriana knitted her brows.
She was aware of their hidden intentions, but the sight of her mother on the hospital bed gave her a
$666nd thought. Despite being a career woman, she was also a loving daughter. She might have
reservations about her family, yet she couldn’t disregard her aging parents.
After a long pause, she finally and helplessly agreed.
“Mom, don’t be upset. I promise I’ll come home for a few days to keep you and Dad company”
Seeing her finally give in, the Gracias were overjoyed.
Roxanne’s eyes lit up with delight. She eagerly grabbed Adriana’s arm and said, “That’s wonderful! We
can finally reunite as a family. Aunt Adriana, do you have a lot of stuff? If you do, I can help you pack
your belongings!”
Adriana subtly pulled her arm away and put some distance between them.
“It’s fine. I can manage.”
Marnie adopted a stern face and urged, “Since you’ve made up your mind, hurry up! Stop dawdling!”
The Fains were secretly elated when they saw this.
If Adriana agreed to return home, The chances for the groups to merge would grow higher. This union
would bring numerous benefits to their family.
