Monica Jacobs seemed to pause for a moment, then gently caressed Maya Monroe's hair with a soft touch: "Is Maya happy?"
This time, it was Maya Monroe's turn to be stunned. She then smiled: "Pretty happy."
Monica Jacobs sighed; she was aware that Kiki Monroe had been frequently opposing Maya recently, causing quite a bit of trouble for her.
And the backing Kiki relied on was surely Tristan Rowe…
Monica suddenly felt a lack of strength in her hand, and when she looked down, she realized that she had inadvertently pulled out a strand of Maya's hair. Instantly, her heart ached terribly, and she immediately embraced Maya like when she was a child, soothing her tenderly.
Maya did not mention any pain, she just looked at her: "Is there something you want to tell me?"
The same question again, Monica suddenly felt as though she had been seen through.
She lowered her eyes in silence, unsure how long she had been thinking: "Nothing in particular."
