Jenna turned to look at him and saw him standing up with his glass, "I'll join you." Jenna paused for a moment and then, looking at him with a raised eyebrow teased, "Aren't you afraid that toasting with a divorced woman likewill affect your image? You're not even married yet; don't let people misunderstand." Jamuna laughed dismissively and said, "I'm old enough not to mind such things. But what about you, Senior Sister... do you mind?" His pupils contracted imperceptibly, and his gaze lingered on Jenna's face, waiting for her answer.
Jenna hesitated, and before she could speak, her brother George Clark spoke up first.
"Sister, Jamuna is new here and doesn't know many people. If you let him go toasting alone, he won't know who is who. Isn't that embarrassing? You should go with him and help introduce him around." Jenna thought about it and agreed without much thought, nodding, "Alright, then follow me." "Thank you, Senior Sister." Jamuna smiled graciously, holding his glass, and followed Jenna to another table.

Many knew that if he solved Goldbach's conjecture, his influence would absolutely surpass that of any of them in the business world.
And the likelihood that he could solve this conjecture was very high.
Thus, many people present were looking for an opportunity to foster a connection with Jamuna; naturally, they wouldn't let this chance slip away.
Jamuna followed closely behind Jenna; their distance wasn't far, just off the shoulder, with Jamuna's shoulder right behind Jenna's back.
Though both were over forty, because they were attractive and looked younger, the pair toasting together appeared more like a well-matched married couple.
Sobservant folks felt they were highly compatible. If Jenna had not married James Campbell back then, perhaps Jamuna would not be single now.
Thinking this, many agreed with Elly Campbell's view, thinking how splendid Jamuna was—with looks, money, and prestige, yet mysteriously without even a rumored girlfriend.
Could it really be that he was waiting for Jenna? But if Jenna had not divorced, would he have remained single for his whole life, never marrying? Initially, Elly had just been speculating, but now, seeing Jamuna standing protectively behind her mother, she knew her guess was right.
Professor Ford really did fancy her mother.
As a daughter, Elly couldn't help but reveal a sly smile, laughing so much that Island Master Jones beside her En was somewhat lost for words. At the stime, he began to feel a bit jealous.
His wife was attentive to her father-in-law's affairs and concerned about her mother in laws emotional life, yet showed absolutely no sign of acknowledging him, who shared the sbirthday as her father-in-law. Did she really forget that today was her husband's birthday too? A strong sense of defeat welled up in Island Master Jones' heart.
When Jenna and Jamuna reached James Campbell's table, Jenna's gm expression did not show any change, nor any embarrassment or resentment typically associated with encountering an ex-husband.
