Chapter 207 : Distant Bonds and New Beginnings - 2 Jade hesitated for a moment before shaking her head reluctantly . Emma's expression showed she'd expected this answer . I asked with concern , " If David lives with you , what about Leah Pierce ? She's still in elementary school , right ? " Yes , Leah will live with us , " Jade replied . " We want to rent a two - bedroom apartment first , then save enough for a down payment to buy a house and settle down in Riverdale .

" I reminded her seriously , " Be sure to test the air quality levels when you rent a place . Don't rent another unsafe apartment. " Looking at Emma , I added , " You too , pay attention . Noah Pierce's sister got sick because she lived in an unsafe apartment before . Luckily Noah wasn't affected . " Emma nodded solemnly . " Okay , I'll pay attention . " Emma still looked incredulous about Jade's news . " I just made a suggestion , it's up to you whether you adopt it .

Of course , I still hope you and your boyfriend will be well , and I wish you a long and happy relationship . " I know Sister Emma is doing this for my own good , " Jade said gratefully , raising her glass . " I'll drink to that . " Cheers ! " I smiled warmly . " Remember to invite us to your mating ceremony . " Jade laughed , her earlier embarrassment fading . " That's a must . " Emma grinned . " Bring your boyfriend out to introduce him to me sometime . " " Okay , " Jade agreed happily .

The dinner lasted for more than an hour . By the end , Jade and Emma were both stuffed from the generous portions . Emma , having drunk a few beers , was slightly tipsy . She swayed a little as she asked Jade , " Why didn't your boyfriend come to pick you up ? " Jade smiled fondly . " He's working overtime to earn money ." " That's alright , " Emma said , fumbling for her phone . " I'll call for a taxi . " I pressed her hand down gently . " Don't take a taxi . I'll take you home .

I wouldn't feel safe letting you take a taxi alone when you're so drunk . " Jade's current residence was still near her previous workplace , more than ten kilometers away . Emma lived near Moonstone Legal Partners , about three kilometers from here . I helped Emma into the car , supporting her unsteady form . " Jade , get in too . I'll take you home ." " Okay , thanks , Attorney Winters , " Jade said gratefully , opening the car door .

" I get to ride in Attorney Winters ' luxury car again , hehe . " Rebecca Frost drove while Jade sat in the passenger seat . I supported Emma in the back seat , making sure she was comfortable and secure . After safely dropping off both girls at their respective homes , I told Rebecca to drive towards my luxury penthouse . I had bought a two - story villa in a high - end residential area near Moonstone Legal Partners , Ghapter 207 Distant Bon . making my commute convenient .

Evelyn Foster lived with me , providing close protection at any time . The arrangement gave me peace of mind in these uncertain times . As our white luxury car passed through the city streets , we stopped at a red light . I casually looked but the window , taking in the nighttime scenery . Suddenly , I caught sight of a familiar figure near the Nightshade Bar Entrance on the street . My heart skipped a beat as recognition dawned .

I quickly lowered the car window , peering more carefully at the scene unfolding before us . " Rebecca , find a place to park , quickly ! " My voice was urgent , filled with sudden concern . 7
