At the dinner table, Shannon was still her carefree self and was unrestrained in front of Nicky, whom she was not
familiar with. | looked at her and did not know whether to laugh or cry. "She's always like this. Please don't mind
her."
| explained just in case Nicky thought that she was being rude.
Nicky waved her hand and said with a smile, "I don't mind it. Shannon is very cute.
Hearing this, Shannon's chopsticks stopped. She looked at Nicky with a smile at the corner of her lips. "Thank
you for your compliment. You're also very beautiful. | heard Wanda say that you got injured because you were
saving Munchkin."
"Yes, it was just an accident. It's nothing." Nicky obviously did not want to talk about it, so she just brought her

Shannon was unwilling to leave on this topic, however. She continued asking, "Not only Munchkin, but you also
saved Wanda several times. Oh, | was just wondering. Whaldorf City is huge. How is it that you were always
there to save Wanda when something was going to happen to her?"
| thought Shannon was getting more outrageous the more she spoke. | also noted that Nicky's expression had
changed. | interrupted Shannon quickly." Shannon, they were just accidents. Don't
think about them so much."
Shannon glanced at me, and her smile grew wider. "I wasn't implying anything. | was just lamenting. Fate is
really something that just comes as it pleases. This means that Miss Doyle is quite fated with you, Wanda."
For a moment, Nicky looked up and faced her with a faint smile on her face. "Yes, our fates run deep. That's why

"That's right, our friendship that started abroad is one that transcended life, no?" Shannon raised her brow at
me.
| echoed her, "Yes, yes. Both of you are my friends, and | hope you can be good friends too."
| observed both their expressions
after | said this. They did not look very happy. Maybe it was because they did not know each other well enough
yet, but it was fine. | would take things one step at a time. | was confident that they would definitely become
friends.
Caroline brought us fruit after we were done with our meals.
"Miss Doyle, your parents are still around, yes? Where are they now and what are they doing?" Shannon asked

convenient to reveal it?" "My parents are just ordinary employees. They work in the sfactory. There's
nothing much to say," Nicky responded generously.
Shannon nodded with a thoughtful look." Miss Doyle, you must have also worked hard to achieve what you have
achieved today. | really admire that. | was worried when Wanda said that she was keeping you here. Now that
I've seen your character, I'm relieved."
"Oh, what were you worried about, Miss Collins?" Nicky asked back.
Shannon rolled her eyes and said with a mischievous smile, "Wanda's husband, Theo Grant, is a rich and
excellent man. There are no lack of ladies who covet him, so | was worried if you had the sintentions, Miss
Doyle. The tyou've spent in Grant Corporation isn't short, so | don't suppose you have that intention toward
