“I don’t know if you’ve seen the news, but just so you know, like you wanted, I’m getting remarried,” Jonathan said.
Teresa was calm. Michael had already shown Jonathan’s message to her, so she knew the news was fake. Jonathan wasn’t actually getting married.
Jonathan narrowed his eyes, repeating each word carefully, “I said, I’m getting remarried.”
Teresa said, “I heard you, I’m not deal. Wishing you a happy marriage and lots of kids. Happy now?”
Seeing her so indifferent, Jonathan’s heart sank, and his face turned cold. He added, “The wedding’s tomorrow.”
“Great, I’ll be there to cheer you on,” Teresa shot back without missing a beat.
Jonathan speechless. He walked past her, his face expressionless. On this breezy night, he felt a chill running through him.
Teresa stopped by Cathy’s place first. Cathy had been pretty anxious to see her. Since Teresa suddenly had some free time, she decided to go over in the evening.
Cathy handed Teresa a pink tulle dress she’d bought.
Teresa ran her hand over the fabric and said, “This dress is really cute, but it’s a bit too tight on me. Maybe you should give it to Cheryl instead.”
Teresa wasn’t sure if it was all the good food she’d had lately or just that time of the month, but she felt like she’d put on a few pounds. The dress had a super cinched waist, and she didn’t dare try it on.
Cathy laughed and said, “You’re so slim! There’s no way it would be too tight on you.”
Trying to change the subject, Teresa said, “Cathy, did you need something from me?”
Cathy smiled and said, “Teresa, now that Jennifer and Donald registered their marriage, we’re all family. Don’t be so polite and distant with me.”
Teresa asked again, “Do you need my help with anything?”
That was when Cathy finally got to the point. It was about finding bridesmaids.
At least four bridesmaids were needed for the wedding, and their zodiac signs should match with Jennifer’s. So far, Cathy had only found three, and she wondered if Teresa knew any single girls her age who could be bridesmaids.
With the wedding coming up fast, there wasn’t time to look everywhere, so Cathy felt it was better to find someone reliable.
Teresa thought for a moment and said, “There is someone my age. But I can’t promise she’ll be able to do it.“\\
“That’s fine, just ask her if she’s available,” Cathy said.
Teresa agreed to ask. When she was about to leave, Cathy insisted that she take the dress with her.
When Cathy heard Teresa was going to see Jennifer, she gave Teresa another dress. It was the same style as the pink one, but in rose red. Cathy said the dress was for Jennifer and asked Teresa to bring it to her.
Jennifer hadn’t expected Teresa to come looking for her. She was both surprised and a little flustered. She hurried over to the small pavilion in her neighborhood. Upon seeing Teresa, she complained, “Hey, Teresa, why didn’t you just come up to my place?”
Teresa didn’t want to go into the home Jennifer shared with Donald. She looked at Jennifer’s tired face and said, “I heard you made a mistake during surgery and almost lost a patient.”
Jennifer’s face stiffened. She said, “It was just a small slip–up, nothing serious. I’ve already sorted it out. Who told you about it?”

Teresa replied, “Donald told me. Don’t blame him for talking. He’s just worried about you. He wanted me, as your sister, to check in on you. Ako
Teresa handed Jennifer a delicate shopping bag and added, “Cathy asked me to bring you this dress. She bought it for you herself You’re lucky to hav mother–in–law who treats you like family. Honestly, you’re pretty blessed.” With that, she turned to leave.
Jennifer suddenly grabbed Teresa’s wrist. She wanted to tell Teresa something.
