"Consuela!" Terence spat, his cold expression unnerving. "I know you're Julia's best friend, so I've tried to put up with your attitude. But I'm telling you now—if you keep going like this, don't blame me if I become rude."

"What's wrong with my attitude?" Consuela sneered. "You're being a fool. And I'm just being honest."

"Mr. Chen, just stop arguing with Consuela, okay?" Sherry was initially oblivious to what had happened, but she pieced things together from Consuela's remarks. She had a vague idea in her head that Jean might have been behind Julia's accident.

It's an hour's drive if you take the car. That's not counting the traffic jam. Why did you lie? Do you take me for an idiot?"

"I…" Sherry slowly looked her in the eye and a thin, sad smile broke across her mouth. "Julia, now that you've found out, I won't hide the truth from you any longer. The medicine is from Mr. Chen."
