Chapter 1765:
Sensing something amiss, Tracy leaned in, her voice edged with concern. “What happened?”
Elyse exhaled sharply, shaking her head. “I don’t know. Jennie just called, sounding rattled, and said she did
something bad.”
Tracy's eyes widened. “Wait—could she have followed Corrie’s orders? Didn't you say Corrie had her wrapped
around her finger?”
A wave of realization crashed over Elyse. “That's right. How could | have overlooked that?” She sprang to her
feet. “I need to find Brook. Maybe he knows what's going on.”
Meanwhile, Jennie slipped her phone into her pocket with a sigh, frustration weighing heavy on her shoulders.
She sat in a quiet café nestled within the shopping mall, the usual buzz of patrons strangely absent.
A moment later, Camille returned, practically bouncing into her seat across from Jennie. She took a sip of her
coffee and beamed. “Jennie, the coffee here is amazing! But isn't it weird that we're the only ones here?”
Jennie forced a small, feigned look of surprise, sweeping her gaze around the empty space. “Yeah... weird.”

eyes. Her brows knit together. “Jennie, you look exhausted. If you're not feeling well, we can head home.”
Jennie parted her lips, as if about to say something, but the words withered on her tongue. Instead, she
mustered a bitter smile and shook her head. “No... | can’t go back.”
As the weight of her own words settled, she buried her face in her hands, anguish rolling off her in waves.
Camille didn’t pry any further. Seeing Jennie in so much pain made her heart ache.
She eventually finished her coffee, setting the cup down with a satisfied sigh. A sudden wave of dizziness
crashed over her. Pressing her fingertips to her temples, she murmured, “Jennie, don’t beat yourself up. I'm not
as fragile or clueless as you think. Don’t carry all this guilt—I trust you. And when | wake up, we'll still be
friends...” Her voice trailed off as her body went limp, her head tilting to the side before she collapsed onto the
table, completely unconscious.
Jennie clenched her fists, her stomach twisting. She couldn't bring herself to look.

Then cthe sharp click of high heels against the floor—Corrie’s signature entrance. Corrie strode up to
Camille, gripping a handful of her hair and tilting her head this way and that, inspecting her like a prize on
display. Once she was convinced Camille was truly out cold, Corrie smirked and turned to Jennie. “See? | told you
you'd pull it off. Good job. | always keep my promises.”
