Chapter 5

Just three days later, Linda asked me out for dinner again, and said mysteriously that she had something important to discuss with me.

I was sitting in the corner of the bar, watching Linda wearing a black dress and walking towards me with a mysterious look on her face, and I couldn't help but feel a little curious.

She had a smug look on her face, as if she had some big news to announce.

"Mandy, you know?" She couldn't wait to speak as soon as she sat down.

I raised an eyebrow, "Know what?"

She lowered her voice in a mysterious manner, "I have a big plan that I want to discuss with you."

I smiled and said, "Tell me about it."

"It's like this. My husband has a brother named Toby, who is mature, steady, and successful in his career," she paused and continued, "I think you two are a good match. How about I introduce you to each other?"

"It sounds good, but..." I took a sip of the wine.

I deliberately dragged out my voice, "I don't want to be accused of climbing the social ladder."

She was anxious, "How can this be considered climbing the social ladder? Toby is sincere and he has a good impression of you."

Looking at her anxious expression, I couldn't help but feel a little amused. "Good impression of me? He hasn't even met me. How could he already have a crush on me?"

Linda was a little embarrassed. "Well...well, who can say for sure about love matters?"

"Linda, I know you mean well, but I don't like being arranged. It's better to let things take their natural course when it comes to relationships."

My voice was calm and firm, without a trace of wavering.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Linda's face. She seemed not to have expected that I would refuse so directly.

"Mandy, don't refuse so quickly. At least meet him and get to know him better. Maybe you'll get a surprise."

I could almost imagine Linda's plan. She was just trying to get me to marry Toby. Then she would give birth to a son and I would give birth to a daughter. She wanted me to experience the feeling of being ignored by Susan.

I found an excuse to go to the bathroom, and when I came back, she was still trying to persuade me earnestly.

After I refused many times, she saw my firm attitude and had to give up.

However, just when I let my guard down, I suddenly felt dizzy and everything in front of me started to become blurry.

"Linda, why I..."

Before I could finish my words, I felt a strong sense of dizziness. My consciousness gradually became blurred, and finally I was quite unconscious.
