Chapter 1229
I’ve heard about the newly constructed smart city and the new commercial area in the CBD. Once I recover, I must go and explore.”
Despite Ariadna’s naughtiness, each of her actions indicated a solid upbringing.
Loraine surmised that Ariadna must hail from an affluent family.
However, Ariadna’s amiable and relaxed demeanor made Loraine increasingly fond of her. She encouraged Ariadna with a warm smile,
“Ariadna, return to your ward first and undergo your treatment. Once you’re well, I can take you sightseeing.”
Upon hearing this, Ariadna’s eyes sparkled with surprise.
“Really?”
Loraine nodded, “I’m from Vagow. My name is Loraine Torres. You can seek me out anytime.”
Flushed with excitement, Ariadna nodded fervently, took hold of
Tillie’s hand, and pleaded, “Mrs. Castro, can I exchange phone numbers with Loraine?”
During her hospital stay, all her electronic devices had been confiscated and kept by Tillie.

Tillie shot a glance at Loraine and, remaining silent, provided the phone number.
Loraine didn’t mind Tillie’s glance.
After all, she was befriending Ariadna, not her servant Tillie.
After jotting down her number, Loraine reciprocated by generously providing her own.
Ariadna’s smile brightened as they exchanged phone numbers and she repeated her agreement to meet Loraine for a fun outing once she recovered. Consequently, she no longer resisted returning to her special ward and departed in good spirits.
Tillie watched her retreating figure with affection, but did not immediately follow her. Instead, she lingered behind in the ward.
Observing Tillie’s actions, Loraine realized that she wished to speak with her privately.
After Ariadna was out of sight, Tillie turned around, her gaze settling on Loraine. She warned in a low voice, “Miss Torres, whatever your intentions are, don’t assume you can simply attach yourself to Ariadna.
She may be kind and naive enough to agree to your friendship, but I’1L be watching her closely and won’t allow anyone with ill intent to approach her.”
Loraine furrowed her brows, but still sought to clarify, “You’ve misunderstood. I bear no ulterior motives. I simply wish to be friends with Ariadna.”
Tillie gave her an arrogant once-over and scoffed, “So you’ve discovered that Ariadna is the daughter of the renowned Cruz family from Zodiac, and now you’ve chosen to demonstrate your friendliness, correct?”
Hearing that Ariadna’s surname was Cruz and that she hailed from an influential family, Loraine was slightly taken aback. She had speculated that Ariadna might belong to the Cruz family of Zodiac, but hadn’t expected such a coincidence to be true.
