Tracy kept clicking her tongue as she said, "Rae, you're one of the four top beauties in Khoitwood and known as the icy beauty.
"Men line up just to get a chance with you, but you're not interested in any of them. And now, this icy goddess is going to apologize? That's as likely as pigs flying!"
Upon hearing that, Rachel's expression turned a bit bitter and said, "Back then, I hadn't really gotten close to any man.
"But now, Matthew has come into my life, and we've been through so much. I don't want to miss out on him. Let's go. Come with me to buy some gifts and get a lot of them."

A car pulled up in front of Lambda Villa.
Looking at the entrance, Andrew asked, "Are you sure you want to ask Hayden for help? It's a big favor and could be hard to repay unless you're actually planning to marry him."
Sara understood Andrew's concern and said, "Andrew, he's already helped me once. I believe he's a good person and capable. The thing is, I need to get rid of that chauffeur. Hayden is the only one who can help me now."
Andrew sighed, realizing he hadn't protected Sara well enough. He said, "Actually, I want to get rid of Matthew, too. I can't move on until he's gone. Let's get out of the car. I'll go with you to meet Hayden."

Meanwhile, at the entrance of Silverbrook Village, a cab came to a stop. Tessa frowned and said, "Drive into the village. There's still quite a ways to go."
She had sold her car to pay off debts and hadn't taken a cab for a long time, so she wasn't used to this mode of travel.
The driver shook his head and said, "I can't. The village doesn't allow outside vehicles in. If we do drive in, we'll be fined."
Tessa was immediately frustrated and refused to be left at the village entrance.
