Selena went out for a spa day with Aveline, but as soon as they stepped into the salon, they unexpectedly ran into Jolie.

Jolie exuded an air of indifference, her entire demeanor laced with a lazy sort of detachment as if nothing in the world could pique her interest. She wore oversized sunglasses, her expression hidden, but her complexion looked far from well. "Miss Jolie, what a coincidence," Aveline greeted her with a polite smile.

Jolie glanced over, giving a faint nod, but didn't bother to say anything more.

Selena frowned slightly at the interaction.

Before long, a staff member ushered Selena and Aveline into a private room. As soon as the door closed, Selena couldn't help but comment, "What's going on with her?"

"Hmm?" Aveline turned to her, confused. "Are you talking about Jolie?"

"Of course. Look at her! She looks like a ghost has sucked the life right out of her," Selena said, her voice a mix of concern and curiosity.

Aveline's lips curled into a knowing smile. "If you're that worried about her, why not go and ask her yourself?"

"I'm not worried about her," Selena shot back immediately, lying down and closing her eyes to signal the end of the conversation.

Aveline didn't press the matter, though her knowing smile remained. She reclined on the lounge chair as well, casually adding, "She's definitely not herself. I'll go and have a word with her later." Selena's lashes fluttered at Aveline's remark, but she said nothing.
