"Clayton, did Tang Xiaonan say something to you? I know it wasn't right for Yuhai to snatch the meat, but Tang Xiaonan and her cousin knocked over his food and even spat. That's the only reason I said a few words to her, and I scolded Yuhai afterward, too."
Jacqueline Spann sounded aggrieved. She and Clayton Xavier had known each other for so many years. Did he really not know what kind of person she was?
But now he was turning distant all because of a rude little brat. A chill crept into Jacqueline Spann's heart, but more than that, she was heartbroken.
She didn't care what anyone else thought of her, but she cared deeply about Clayton Xavier's opinion. Despite being only ten, the precocious and calculating Jacqueline Spann had already developed feelings for Clayton. Her heart soured with jealousy toward Tang Xiaonan.
Clayton Xavier sensed her distress and his heart softened. He said sheepishly, "I didn't say you were wrong. I really am busy."
