Jade hurriedly shook her head.

"This has nothing to do with Jenny.It's my fault, really.I should've been more careful."

She only fell for Hayden's trap because she was desperate to prove to herself that she had surpassed him.Max said nothing else.He didn't really blame Jenny; he was still upset, was all.
