“Angel just ruined everything for me,” said Leo as he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfyzFg0Edu
came to stand next to Eric by the bar counter.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dd4f7q1LQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB0SSPro3Y
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvUDJbVwsm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39OkMD5HCh
“What do you mean she’s ruined everything?” Eric asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlkZejKEPe

“Carly and I were supposed to run away together, but it’s like she caught on to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrpyC1Mn6H
us.” Leo shook his head. “That’s why she stayed behind with Carly. She says she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjejzMjNYd
doesn’t want Marco to suspect anything.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFV4b4KAzW

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1wTeRO73A
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD27HPbzFRU
Eric shrugged his shoulders. “Angel does have a point,” he said. “We don’t need264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn5jb8nJC5
Marco knowing that the two of you are dating. He might tell his father, who, in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjletXVZph1
turn, will tell your dad. Well, you know how this vicious cycle goes.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEzD84JAuD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzo9XQaryfI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeFxlJPHjL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQ8SVxrWzZ
Leo sighed. “You do have a point.” He turned to his cousin. “Go on. I know you264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMvNSAFIqh
want to say it.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKYn11Q3ns
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeDdNMqklt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfKqIQlTy4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq48Wzcb45r
“Say what?” Eric asked without looking at Leo.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWpAifQbRS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMBT5dg1aq
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5pReJgvvm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiwdaunqax
Leo sighed again, deeply this time. “That she has my best interest at heart.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxHDsgld4d
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9rlqGPYWi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly55WAB0MR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zxaNoNmwm
Eric looked at Leo, this time with a beaming smile on his face. “Of course,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgPqJ9lYrp
because that’s just how she is.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBx1nC9D65i
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidyVWaECyY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinimCfo2cI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65vwVZcoKE
“Can you stop smiling like that?” Leo looked irritated. Eric’s smile shone264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fWJXJHl9d
brightly like the sun. Leo felt blinded as he turned to look away. “You’ve had264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmombTpxCBq
your fun.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZs3jmOTGy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSJDqFvVr1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tn3EwPyhi

“I just want to rub it in. Before we went into the garden, I was about to tell264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj1KKpeUBv
you the same thing, but it slipped my mind. It’s good that Angel thought way264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9ZWuIIp1B
ahead and talked to Carly about it.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvC0txpsGZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQs5FVhrPx5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhMQC4Ymb3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzROJ1YQNz
Leo felt dumb. None of that came to mind, and he felt like slapping himself for264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEiJzLgAob
being so stupid and careless. He hoped Marco wasn’t paying enough attention at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7q2lAXv7W
first for him to realize there was anything between him and Carly. It seems he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQUQNXg89N
has Angel to thank, but Leo was too embarrassed to think of doing so.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cS23WU4l0

“Do they serve milkshakes here?” Leo asked, trying to rid himself of his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjg9hCCKUO
thoughts.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbQDYYFqDq

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AailTQwx4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv1WYPHhey
“Yeah, I already asked,” answered Eric. “They serve non-alcoholic drinks as264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWfRFHNhGE

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFzkMsNg0z
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCKVCk3ugd
Leo left the counter and found Carly where he had left her. She was slowly264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBpNgsw6f1
looking around, taking in the view of the place. There were bright bulbs264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIacz3Vuyqt
hanging over the area, and she apparently stood out with her beautiful dress.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWcbOa3q9P
If they weren’t around so many people, he wasn’t going to hesitate to kiss and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBdrt6iBTI
caress her. He smiled at her instead and gestured with his head to her, saying264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQRBOxTtU8
that they should join Angel and the others.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9t7WspdiWa
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiIJDxieei
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDizaoiOQZJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw9HXklPAL
Trina and Kim stood by the fountain as they watched Leo approach the table264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG07QNxU2ZU
where Angel, Oliver, and the Asian man sat. Carly joined him soon afterwards.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66uavUVoyt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCRHCLInVp
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDj5U2b6l4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq5P9ehYp5
“How long do you think we’ll stay here until he decides to see his lover?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtlNxUfYRc
Trina asked as she sat at the edge of the pool basin of the fountain.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW5BjiYcx2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhIDGOCOGk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ml8cIbWsr
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DowHOJ4yY
“I don’t know,” said Kim, who remained standing. “Don’t tell me you’re already264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkhv2U4btY
tired.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡId5RrtGg7b
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zDbA8Ha2K
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡec6EQDv8GG
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqmdVwYr2O
“Oh, no, it’s not that. They are there enjoying themselves when I’m in need of264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtHKbLrZRi
a drink right now.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xy1X1B8HI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXmniZOKp9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFtPfHxUWS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4ebrvh9B2
Kim rolled her eyes. “We can go there and take a seat, but we should sit out of264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguSTJwF0nt
their sight.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeHOq8LKTW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTXhrIxaVZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkg6gM2MVOL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe0f11jpJd
“Good idea. Let’s wait for Eric at the counter. Leo looks like he’s checking to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggknxHomy6
see what everyone needs because he hasn’t sat down. They will easily see us if264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8vzgSPUDH
they aren’t at their table.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVRla5uRzT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBct9NCJOZD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUthebFB4zt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMT82oEZnt
Kim agreed with Trina. They continued to watch Leo as he made his way back to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY9HTXs4QN
the counter.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeCVuTHZIQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVchdTzP3A6

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjoOqiga16
Meanwhile, Miranda, who had been watching over the balcony, followed Leo’s264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJF63EhrIs
movements. She kept telling herself that she needed to get down there. If she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BmSB1cv24
so much as stepped out of the room, no doubt Red Lion would have her head, and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomkPkSf7st
whatever the meeting was all about, she wasn’t going to be a part of it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWJXckrKQD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14tBSJzwe5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRiBS07QFJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RItD4ODqT
She huffed. If that was the consequence, she was going to have to deal with it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKSVVelVE1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDcitiErK4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7swFpoAbYN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JIsSk6QwY
Without giving much of a second thought, Miranda turned around and went back264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6RJXabphb
inside the room. The football game they were watching was on a half-time break,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjc3KoS0DSz
and the three men were there, talking aloud about the game. She approached264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnN9jaDXlqR
them, and to get their attention, she loudly cleared her throat.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30pSrTYvta
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRrzijH6pG
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kWk7AvzCX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpidq5YFA4G
The three men all stopped talking and turned to look at Miranda. For a moment,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqUNRiyE7O
she gulped as her eyes landed on the terrifying face of Red Lion, who didn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCgVQoqm0D
like the fact that she had disturbed them. She had to be quick with what she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXidpTzVNRi
wanted to say, as she was running on Red Lion’s patience.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHkDxpgs2B
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtx7PRrLzd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtPEwalr6n
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wnb425aNy
“I’ll be stepping out for a bit,” Miranda announced.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKZ790YH2a
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv48ieRrM3z
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ssUwZsCxi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq0WkIRJXR
There was a brief silence in the room as the three men continued to look at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla6fUGeMbT
Miranda, expressionless. Red Lion moved in his seat, and Miranda feared that he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2PeNSCfFV
would speak first.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4yd3IPCUq
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXchbcniQbL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHYHeeUZbV
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOxaTLh94z
“I don’t think going out is the best thing to do right now,” he said. “We’re264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnchR4OKTg
waiting on someone, aren’t we?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBZQ9OIe1a
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqQhzAVQ5t
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdytQRRQa4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyTRQJnBzY
“Yeah, we are, but this person isn’t showing up anyway. You’ll let me know when264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzOdeYvghN
he gets here. I really need to step out.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CN4Ci2vaM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjbahLjfUt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs19UTX2ESV
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3m8SdJyoJ
Red Lion continued to look at her. Walters now had a scared look on his face.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYeDSV4Hra
He wished he could intervene, but things haven’t escalated between the two, so264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BQAtll0Td
it was hopeless to do so.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAeyZWxW4h
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebrc3jyfQw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8pujKitto
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcvwuP8Hay
“Whatever,” said Red Lion as he leaned back on the couch. “You get back here in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcyH2F8eiL
thirty minutes. If our host gets here before you, you better hurry back when264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lm5uSyf3F
Walters calls.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4evgbVPpN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4yvHSVu8G
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5LdyELSjN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLM0ceDaGa
Miranda felt relieved. She thought she wasn’t going to be let go so easily.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiKIgflw4t
Moreover, the time Red Lion gave her was too little. However, she had to make264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsBMZOTk0L
use of this as much as possible, even if it meant seeing Leo down there for a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwM0BMkTLf
minute.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TUt2HA3BL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81ZyjQQ9HO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqRLS4uJQS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrlNywG3AO
“I will,” said Miranda. She didn’t waste any time as she made her way for the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93bytLiWUO
door.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MzfkQ7WfU
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfZRkzB8hj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3ZTOFEUFD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BmfnkDjFs
As soon as she walked out of the room, Hugo turned to Red Lion and asked, “Are264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4sVsBCSDy
you sure letting her go out like that is a good idea? Our host can walk in at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2H7UHLXXd
any moment.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG2gZun94P
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrVIMIbgbL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7IKeioNXu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Gg48Dlhd2
“True, but it’s better than her staying out on the balcony while we wait,” Red264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYNf9hjI67
Lion answered. “If you ask me, I would step out too if it wasn’t for the football264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QFhoMo9o6
game. But I was serious about my threat, so she better be here before he does.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QSRhRXXjE

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN662M141j6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC9zbw8RVH
Walters didn’t say anything as he briefly looked at Red Lion before looking up264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcRjz6W1h0
at the TV. Red Lion wasn’t kidding when he said he was in a good mood, Walters264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pGG5upJs8
thought to himself. Knowing Red Lion, he wasn’t going to let Miranda walk out264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxo3fBdzemj
of here. Something must have really put Red Lion into a good mood today, or264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZztZZorBw
else he wouldn’t have done what he did.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L4LAdK88X

Leo and Eric came to join the others at the table with their drinks, and Eric,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5SfoHDCrA
on the other hand, carried a plate full of nachos and cheese. Oliver was so264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mw8hwnAF0
delighted to see the plate of snacks that he couldn’t wait to eat them. Angel264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwAOaELaMj
had to warn him not to eat too much, or else he might have a bad tummy ache the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWKcQw2uNO
next day.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi0OaD17qS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSnnR8sgFJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXFbGHpp0C
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNdWBvy1rm
“I wouldn’t waste my breath warning the guy,” said Eric as he sat down on the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6epr6rV7v
empty chair next to Angel after serving her a soda. “It’s a Friday, and he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakoSCCXFYf
likes to act like he can do whatever he wants.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAUnIy6koE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmd1uGugre7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07wIY5LCgk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOWdZwbYcd
Oliver, who sat on Angel’s other side, didn’t answer him as he took his mango264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcb0RfN5b7
milkshake and put the straw in his mouth. Angel, on the other hand, looked at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs5qkvx98g
Eric and shook her head.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0cEkSKlIB

Leo placed his glass of beer and Carly’s cocktail before taking his seat in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSgQE6s97f
between them. He also served Marco a bottle of the cider that he wanted. Marco264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW45OwoSqV7
thanked him as Leo sat down.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAbiPDF2J4

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM6VtC23WU
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYzGCUeTjG
“Hey, Marco,” said Angel as she turned to look at him, looking over Oliver, who264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmJ2gJWBfp
sat in between them. “Have you ever been here before? In America, I mean.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnN59VvnSA1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIlvWDPvw0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz5AeGhLs0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2z65lzsmn
“Oh, yes, I’ve come here several times,” answered Marco. “I usually come here264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHnOTRATeM
with dad on business trips. Inheriting the family business can be tiring,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lwr1WGGVi
especially when they’re showing you the ropes. You just have to be there, even264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWI2twXGHS
when you don’t want to. I bet Leo can testify to that.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZrIk696v5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHMB42Ugml
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKQJxYIcMP

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76omEVTqOv

“Wait, does that mean I might inherit mum’s business of running the massage264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeVZBXt77S
parlors when I’m older?” Oliver asked as he took a nacho and dipped it in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy62M5F6XI8
cheese.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvCRGEkGuF

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VgkEW8BEe
Everyone at the table grew quiet as they looked at Oliver. At the same time,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fcz8Peqi6
they all burst into laughter.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQoEiVZmU9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QG37W4H9J
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtA4lfGvrN

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfoPRDnaEf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAVR4f0G46
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOI5OfEEgsw
“No fair,” said Oliver after chewing on his nacho. “You were the one who was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2pOMPD1n0
supposed to inherit it, not me.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfasYETy9Ka

“Don’t take it like that, Oliver,” said Marco. “Beauty parlors aren’t that bad.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5efuprp3Vk
Moreover, many rich people love going to such places. So you’ll probably make a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H71gDYDwB

shoulders. “I’ll see if I can handle it.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QwybivW5q
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUUQJx4k1f
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkYW68sBMC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGrhqG7Nhr
All the grown-ups at the table looked at the young boy, somewhat surprised at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHoFrw9Dxf
his answer. They all stayed that way for a brief moment before Leo stretched264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZlyOVqh4f
out his hand to get a nacho.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQCKWdUMZX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sg8AvJyLt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmloEb6oHeJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjsakPPOh4
“Good enough response for me,” he said. He put the nacho in his mouth264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw1nekrDNH
afterwards.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhVQQQ6Nin
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuGwXG5U6q
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCMlwBxwLU
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4O4Onjorp
“I swear, sometimes I feel he’s older for his age,” said Eric as he shook his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11mJkmxKUF
head.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiicw3tNWw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcPTA7XwpN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTETMeStk7

“Aren’t all kids nowadays?” Angel asked with a smile.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREmzvvRqAn

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMkKwU7iSF
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjIgGhTMBd
“Just like Leo said, a very wise response,” said Marco as he looked at Oliver264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvNLYa7YYT
admirably. “Hopefully, you do inherit, and we will become business partners in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbyfjXoWN8
the future.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxaWT8kbsY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyqDRtTdc8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW9ciRWsCZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxFv6vJHOP
“Yeah, let’s not push him for now,” said Carly. “He’ll sort all of that out264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSHbVqtam2
later, when he’s older.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iHuIDXyKI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcICsDXyCEC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltpJaZeHkE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2OhGvLQSL
“Well, sometimes you don’t really have much of a choice. Isn’t that right,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaUqAMcK9y
Leo?” Marco asked, his eyes fixed on Leo.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiP01JfyuYZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BZ0bqsleH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05rkD5dwN4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfNlxS0R93
Leo slowly stopped chewing as he looked at Marco. He didn’t know if answering264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHKFM9Lmtk
Marco would be a good idea, but he only gestured with his head to acknowledge264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17VaYuZdtT
the statement.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzUjQXoGhO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUuG99BSau
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dMwXHjxfR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zE5918AFf
Angel was sipping on her drink when her eyes wandered away from the area in the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyj7KH7Xxz
bar and to the fountain. She had a feeling Trina and Kim had been standing264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bIA9zsv1d
there for a while. When she found there were only a couple looking at the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YvLm2Om5f
fountain, she started to worry. Could they have given up and left? Kim didn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJtEQIxz8r
seem like the kind of person who would give up on anything, Angel thought.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAjgCttS1c
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMhHCWIdCM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMkDys1itQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvxQG0XY1x
She was lucky enough to see Kim and Trina approach the open bar, and she had a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR0mMueN1M
clear view of them. Leo sat with his back facing them, but she feared Eric and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF70gdghe8H
Oliver would see them. Angel had to think of something to turn their eyes264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSdrf3mkYD
elsewhere. What should she do?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyeC01kMOh
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oe9e0VipE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrBzsN3use
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjwVykTwSV
She turned to Oliver, and he seemed distracted as he was eating the nachos264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUxDoWumLp
hungrily. Turning to Eric, she found him somewhat staring at her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46g9PAB1Gj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJQtvRw9Og
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ40lqsagGP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7KhSeP2iv
“What is it?” she asked him.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WHnSlUeVP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPSWwRiB4l
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe1weiGM8R
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEDCuSaNH1
“Oh, nothing,” he said, somewhat looking a little embarrassed that he was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssszzxXeW4
caught looking at her. “You’re looking really pretty tonight, that’s all.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrspLUfxSp
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHmt5VMzzn
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuONBuSEsWk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeSFIuuZ0E
Angel noticed Kim and Trina enter the bar area through the corner of her eye.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLRWxAmAHJ
She couldn’t turn to look at them. That would only get Eric to look, and he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASdg9a8VB8
would spot them eventually. She had to keep eye contact with him for as long as264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZfwbwO7GZ
necessary.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUm39GS3oGw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbcfVMG6Ov
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0RnBjPEiQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGU3Axe6NRY
“Thank you,” said Angel, smiling at him. “Picking this outfit wasn’t easy, you264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ531LBoYANS
know.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQmSCdwNhw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLqVrnSxdt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU1TvOMBWG
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc5XWkKIJ0
“Nah, I think it was,” said Eric. “I’m betting that you didn’t have to try on264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ521OONQU77
any other dress. This one was just perfect.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoRLt12DR7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknp2yU4S70
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjE0IJ2J2S
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrvy6I7XgE
Carly, who looked at the two, smiled. “He’s not wrong there,” she said.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo62dhsqY6V
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWum5sKhSi5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP73CpNLQ2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYhY3p3tLh
Leo felt like throwing up in his drink as he had a clear sight of Eric flirting264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai0P7MV3d5
with Angel. He wished he could tell them to get a room, but he knew better than264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRSKda8uIm
to say it when he was flirting with Carly some time ago.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3boMgtjMK3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjcxBcnXdD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Vm9GiAObj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCjC4bMo3t
Angel saw through the corner of her eye that Kim and Trina had entered the bar264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTnhnH3Tx6
area and were now looking around for a table on the other side. It was best for264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFscj4gjik
them to get a table where they couldn’t be seen. As soon as they were out of264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIyFA3hmOF
sight, Angel couldn’t help but feel relieved. She went on ahead to pick a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqZQMTjQSK
nacho, dip it in cheese, and eat it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMpaxy5aNz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvy5ULNrHB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xt1VkZUMu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT33H1mn7K4
“That was close,” said Trina. “For a moment, I thought Eric was going to see264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAnXxkRZmQ
us.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3LNvXJIBu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWLankBRLX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAQBfBgf4L
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZZXPqW9K9
“We better count ourselves lucky,” said Kim.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVD4ZVbuVd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6Gj6fW9Dx
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoyUfLQuAc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIuVB6FFjA
“If we weren’t on opposite sides, I would thank Angel for distracting him. I264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwLWcXoPRJ
have a feeling she saw us and wasn’t into the idea of Eric seeing us too.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2iKeFhx1f
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZbJX3xNc0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DjzAmyS2u
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZEgePUpYc
Kim didn’t argue there. She somewhat agreed with Trina. She looked toward the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWuJQbTA3V
bar. Luckily enough, it was circular in shape with a bar shelve in the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNG74yfaqom
circumference, blocking the view of the other side. Therefore, she could see264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoR98JSBJ6
neither them nor them doing the same. Moreover, she could easily go over to the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdurEKwwMpd
counter for a drink.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvEDpRE34V
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6yVpBUvUz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEPqDCYr1D
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VV2KHnuFi
“We should really think things through, Kim,” said Trina as she looked over at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta0KeYDHS2
the bar, realizing that the others were out of sight. “Is staying here really264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXp0dHACCy
worth it? I doubt if he is going to meet his lover with the company that he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eF8nHSgyG
has.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZXszYpoSJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq8pvp3LNT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTDB8qaolY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9huPTOXYZ
“You’ve been in doubt all this time,” said Kim. “Why don’t you just give up and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbPbki5ZIT
leave? I’m not going to stop you.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuZA5NVGLl
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat2rCKudo2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WkUe2JIRN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNIpcgUAxY
“The reason I am here is that I’m afraid that you might mess this up. Your264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruc3GMzQ6c
obsession over Leo leaving you for someone else is really starting to get over264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPXRK8hCVU
your head. If you aren’t careful, you might hurt yourself more than you are264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEQ0p7o6XO
already doing right now.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg2dsc6Sf4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx220z8NKXt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloDJUgrONu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fT2hGTYKe
Kim looked at her best friend, feeling infuriated by what she said. She didn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQFqVuCbHH
want to lash out and tried to find a better way to respond.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIiju07sdo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vInkDWKVJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7fNJ7Xmam
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRGY6p7Bwz
“Like I said before, if you want to, you can leave,” said Kim.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpJuVaet6j
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYfbODIIQm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHr0K8kJCC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0DLlP3XZE
“I’m not leaving without you,” said Trina. “And besides, when we came in here,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlbmBQh717
I saw Eric flirting with Angel. I wonder if he really does like her.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuij6fmYNME
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgvCEnfV8P
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQFAgGnh3k
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgV8QIsFMkw
A sudden laugh came out of Kim’s mouth. Tears almost filled her eyes. “You’re264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pnyLhYxrS
just as jealous as I am,” she said.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTFTmWu6bN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JCLVVb14e
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RQRS0tlLb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSALBA97wwg
“Well, I’m not like you,” said Trina as she folded her arms. “You’re making264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06D6jcwI7v
things worse for yourself, and it will end up being a obsession.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelLaB2rprL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1rpUOhgeU
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡougAixdaue
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwJ060xv4D
Kim shook her head. “I know, but I won’t let this go far. Once I get to see264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ56tmlw1K
Leo’s lover, I’ll let this go.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUG6JJguLv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQtBloDvtC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkilZAHoeFM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzs9xWHhI8
Trina raised an eyebrow. “Will you? I know you, Kim. Leo has been the only man264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsug0D2d8rq
you’ve been in love with since we were kids, and him breaking up with you and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUgVvBsbfq
calling off the wedding was a heavy toll. I don’t think you’ll be able to let264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmF8lJWnaY
go of him that easily.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6nlzG9BsM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15C7J3JdCh
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pWawhE2J6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevmN7sT7RM
“Are you trying to say I am psycho?” Kim didn’t like where their conversation264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMTyB9Y1Tk
was going.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLQBeCfd9g
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z43LNyAaE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZRcRhxIuA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xUq4jiRW9
Trina swallowed, thinking over her words before she spoke them out. “All I’m264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdripcDl5kd
saying is that it’s time to let Leo go. Thinking about him and his new lover264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLFRXMt327
isn’t going to do you any good.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uoG7HfD0O
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Lvyx3Nn9t
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwUUIw9YtF
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbelurhBV7
Kim sighed. She stretched out her hand over the table and beckoned to Trina to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVXRoHsP8c
give her hers. Trina did likewise, and Kim held her friend’s hand tightly.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFEM113IxH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmVzcJsVYL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZSUAq5rRY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3KS1vBcqN
“Okay, after tonight, I’ll try and let go of Leo,” said Kim.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeocwrMlVoW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB6DcSd0dB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr8UkJ6d7G
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOe2xlqebMk
“Why not now?” Trina asked. “Don’t tell me you’re going to follow through with264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbjYmysXpc
your promise after you see this lover of his.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3cm7yUCT2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OlqvZQZRH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1fe03yIEn
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz5gntF4Yd
Kim didn’t answer, and Trina rolled her eyes. “Fine,” Trina said. “After264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXyYtBoRiH
tonight, I shouldn’t hear about Leo ever again.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz5sgjiHRj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1KlvHs98P
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZkLNEKONc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzjwO5ptTF
“But what if we don’t see her?” Kim asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkHyXPOfBD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGE5JnmiUAj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbAMKMzlAS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOI7B62xrU
“You forget him anyway,” said Trina, pulling her hand away. “I’m going to get264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN2XnbRN8X
us some drinks.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzAXOFTeTH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmcNTz5Vo0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDIZ3KrjSs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7QIcbXFwl
Trina quickly stood up and left the table. Kim looked on at her best friend and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqag4RGCvf
knew she had pissed her off. She wished she could assure Trina that she was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlL3EuIZBj
going to forget Leo after this, but even she knew that was far from impossible.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZagIfwzpH0

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IkGqtys11
Miranda rushed out of the elevator and ran into the garden like a mad woman.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVVfoTw17i
Along the way, she pushed people aside. To some, she apologized, but to others,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltDZUX89sR
she didn’t even give them a second thought.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6UpmpO7r8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY2D1E7XDu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVHCuV5a2p
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1as4EXrpOG
There was only one way to the garden, and that was through the western wing264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5nBKpKxIf
since the doors to the east wing weren’t open, said a woman she had met in the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bpvZBbLsp
elevator who was going downstairs and who had lived in the hotel for a long264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFIanYDe73
time. Thankful for the information, Miranda had to rush. She only had a few264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQppsPB7VI9
minutes left, but all she needed was to see Leo.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dXWsyW2ms
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQbdNUVj2g
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZOlDXBkJU
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCEkLqcHN0
She had just bypassed the fountain, heading towards the open bar, but then she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENLrb5Em8y
stopped herself short. She had to see where Leo was sitting first; he might as264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LWn8I65Tk
well have Carly seated right beside him, and Carly would no doubt see her if264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLTfaQ1K1T
she wasn’t too careful.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZTsrS2S0x
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKaOekqkDa
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpZ8WQrI7D
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6TK8Ge08x
She didn’t have to look any further, as she saw Leo at the table with Carly264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvWLZMIyST
beside him along with other people. Leo was holding the floor for the time264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6EGPmMtyQ
being, and Miranda noticed how everyone laughed at what he said. Carly, who sat264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sC2MAT8xH
next to him, looked admirably at him. Miranda huffed. If only she could figure264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2lxZWUvEB
out a way to get the two apart, but now wasn’t the time to think about such264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYO0cspCAm
things.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zmjnVE5Qw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dxz1MyTo1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWvZN2ZEfF
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6cBArXDpE
She started to approach the entrance of the bar; looking over at Leo’s table264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9f5iTtQJZ
and hopeful that Carly wouldn’t turn her head to see her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcrkvl6Gaj

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCGcGYb18D

Miranda walked over to the counter and sat on the stool. Immediately, the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMSdG5qnPs
bartender attended to her, and she ordered a martini. The bartender went on264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIIY01fZYL
ahead to make her drink as Miranda slightly turned around on her chair to look264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoD9FsJIoM
at the table behind her. She had a clear view of Leo, and a smile came across264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA8POEpJ8g
her face.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4PDgk13wZ

“Seriously, ever since Albert puked on me at the work party, I told myself264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHrJeiSTfj
never to drink with him again,” said Leo, concluding his funny story.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNyJjeO5T7

that Angel had to come by taxi to take me home," Carly shared. "We264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9m1hJHkqO

a fit when I tried to sneak you back into the house. But you ended up singing264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32QSr5k5tz

brought in many of his unruly friends. The party turned out to be such a blast.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnXc04V6PO
He and I had a competition to see who could drink more tequila. He passed out264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2dx1pst8w
before he could take the last glass. I won, but at a cost. I puked in the car,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNaClrjGJV

Marco turned to look at Angel. “What of you, Angel? Have you ever had any264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIBXQD91sf
embarrassing moments when you were drunk?” he asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGg0nil7Qf

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g5kZsS5HA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXKNTMmCK8
Marco, Leo, and Eric now turned their eyes on Angel with curious looks. Her264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqouitbjfrP
cheeks flushed in embarrassment as she looked down at the table. She pressed264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhLlrqoOH9
her lips together before looking at everyone, including Oliver.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrV7uXGhCSE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyf4UYtdwS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj158aDbu4t

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn54VpCU3oN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JZiHA9OHj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZzITvweYD
“Of course, I do,” said Angel. “Except that I like to drink wine or champagne264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowoVo7eLZJ
on special occasions.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVQEqBeDIm

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmstaF17u2S
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvam8TTgKX
The adults turned to look at Oliver, surprised. Oliver also looked back at them264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJvFgfKqUj
as though he were judging them for giving him such a look.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoa1cwLSGW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8b2sfmw50
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSOD2vH1MR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5FRRQWAur
“What?” he asked with a shrug of his shoulders. “I hear people who drink such264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfLcw7HMUE
are considered classy.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSALJnRrAab
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbnSF5x0bW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38q5Lfn5vz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhOmnhFCdu
“Wow, someone should tell him that he shouldn’t judge people according to what264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK3xab2fF9
they drink,” said Eric.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZORdplXFAC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNUSWyKuZP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq0oFin0sZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmfZKjBNnV

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKxCjz8OPk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDOWjUXJUI
Angel and Carly burst into laughter. Marco and Leo chuckled, while Eric looked264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLfWrX7PzO
like he didn’t know what to do with his brother anymore.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoAgise6yP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3hDdpw8NP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoy6APV7hv

“I agree with Oliver,” said Marco. “Angel is in a class of her own.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJXwZA5NnY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj1rjWOcS1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknNSgSzHPL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6gCt5gMd0
“That’s being too sweet, don’t you think?” Leo asked, raising an eyebrow at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23RTOI8moe
Marco.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMuN5rBbjg
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOSNG0Fwbf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHo9HhfWHF
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAPZdfq58K
“Well, no, I’m being really genuine here. Angel carries a certain level of264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVppYJeIdV
elegance that I can describe as classy. I don’t know, but there’s much more to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNbakdoY13
her than just her beauty. You’re a man, and I have no doubt you see it too.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUU08fhaWi

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aPzoWePeJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq82n7o8TR
Everyone was silent except for Oliver, who loudly sucked at his smoothie264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe2rp0iWrm
through the straw. Angel found herself looking at Marco with her cheeks feeling264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYYMsu5r1i
like hot coals slapped across her face. Marco turned from Leo to Angel, and the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqsjFOpr9E
corner of his lips rose to a smile. This time, his smile was gentle and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhkz1EjYDf
sincere.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtc6ovuuZw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElnSyTNsvx
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHebMf5J1tr
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0wbVYUl6A
Leo swallowed, as he didn’t know how to respond to Marco’s statement. He saw264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuWOFIGKl6
Marco shift his attention to Angel. As much as Marco was somewhat right from264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7h6mrsY6R
Leo’s perspective, he did his best to try and not take it to heart. For some264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf7VEU5BuN
reason, he couldn’t stand the way Marco looked at her, and it bothered him a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE43lC4roh
little. He started to wonder if Marco really liked Angel.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66aQWDq3Gz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsdgC8kxSG
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptJs4ezcqy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxypsDhDmpo
Eric felt like taking Angel by the hand and dragging her away from Marco. He264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzRtwSJuWU
shifted uncomfortably in his chair, and he thought of bringing something up to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss2nWJ9zJj
ease the tension that he felt, but nothing came to mind.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeZhlKG42m
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sxTvx93fy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdcXjlPw07
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7dub8oCmC
Carly couldn’t help but stare at Angel. What Marco said resonated with her, and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvogF696ds
as she stared at her sister, she could see it clearly. She always felt there264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJwogB3GxG
was something about Angel that she couldn’t put her finger on, and it seems264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljzANGCYQG
Marco hit the nail right on the head. Carly has not always looked up at her264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSb0mopBWhu
sister because she was older, but she always carried with her a certain essence264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0BfLP0pkp
that Carly’s been following blindly for years. She knew she could never be like264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gJWjbOw7o
Angel, but that essence always showed brightly, and Carly always admired Angel264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xW3YtEKM0
for it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rxYYCZdzn

“We’re out of nachos,” Oliver announced, bringing everyone out of their264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK1qmIJQUs
thoughts.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXkp62rydk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85hSUf7KPm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVSPULyKxv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcNhVziyzp
“I’ll go get some,” said Leo, grateful for Oliver finishing the nachos. He264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v7TSrMK4f
really needed to take a breather.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaiAnnxWh5

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUa0TsCuGN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDqgDphpJK
Leo picked up the empty bowl and started to make his way to the bar counter.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgebMjEfdE
Oliver started to say something to keep everyone busy. When Leo was just a few264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEEoFKlAUg
feet away from the bar, it was then that Angel jerked upright in her seat as264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHK98MLrmQ
though she had woken up from a bad dream.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0YeUwbpOi

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiYlYK79Ir
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbHWHjgo9E
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEW3uBYYnC
“I’m good, thanks,” Angel replied, assuring Eric with a smile. She turned to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXT1lgfOuHq
Leo, who was heading to the counter. Kim was obviously on the other side, so264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qzOVEdzZD
Leo wouldn’t see them. She was worrying over nothing.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnxGAlbTNl

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCP0PQ7VmE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFwtq3JdTQ
Miranda quickly turned back in her seat to face the beer and wine bottles on264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaMILaKIV5
the shelf behind the bar counter as she saw Leo approach. She swallowed as she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeV7EboKKB
felt her hands start to shake. A debate arose in her head. Should she say264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LeT2ohhUB
something to him when he comes over? Why should she? It’s not like he can264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNJXRQSzgL
remember that they met at the candy store. I am just being silly, she said to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIiZHwMM6f
herself.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdT8OARQCjr
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORunisSXbX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNGOCdHtvv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z5wzSJL3e
Leo finally reached the counter, and he happened to stand next to Miranda. When264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9wrkBfuEY
Miranda saw him through the corner of her eye, she felt frightened like a mouse264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMQAXnc6HI
that scurries away when it sees the enemy. However, she tried to sit still in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdUVQxwqLA
her seat so as not to draw any attention to herself. She looked down at the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7YXiAzFSZ
glass in front of her and slowly took it. She tried to control the trembling in264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdXlCRLG8t
her hand and hoped that she wouldn’t spill the drink over or that Leo wouldn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOozz7idhe
notice her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2lLYL5bV2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXuaW4QAl5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvofqXS1Wi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfDU1ECwUy
Leo ordered another plate of nachos, and his eyes diverted to the side. His264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo4rFdPxhk
eyes fell on the woman beside him. He had a funny feeling that she looked264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06JaL6xASo
familiar, but he didn’t know if he should ask. Still, it was better to mind his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFQ7ILMZvK
own business.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydZFSeCAe7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhitI5OPfqo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY8lRssCqm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KUlFdHHBn
Miranda felt his eyes on her, and automatically, her head turned to the side to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNhBIZvjUe
look at Leo. After realizing what she had done, her eyes went wide with264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULX6VJED4j
surprise.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IhChjlp4C
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem5wpwUC6B
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t1WA0V35S
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyAKUsqtH7
“I remember you from somewhere,” said Leo.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNV3ktG0pz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSDWmf6Rvv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXMLO91xDe
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yRTRwvwIy
“Ah, yes,” said Miranda. Her surprised look seemed to have worked in her favor.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvehkr68i7
“At the candy store.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ8C1ZA81U
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC7Qry0Vmt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR5RJa8J32
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ocqiFnXLn
“Oh, yeah, right,” said Leo as he gave a nod of his head. “I remember. You264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhY9xNAYKe
bumped into that moving shelf.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFtlYTBsHH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpWrPIZP9s
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v5sft02BY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxPti0kQ41
“That was embarrassing,” said Miranda as she laughed. “I was in a rush.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuauvF5AHqB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GSxJRFr7o
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJdKw8DCZo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdP7h9I7XA
Leo gave her a friendly smile and nodded his head, showing that he understood.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfR0MjiX6o
His gesture made Miranda almost want to shoot out of her stool like a rocket.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CoSTUA4sz
Her heart fluttered, and she wanted to hold on to that beautiful feeling264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNO6PhRKye
forever.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV28Ar4nir
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvitajBqR70
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmH5zby2zgz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUib3Gwog2
The bartender came back with the plate refilled with nachos and cheese. Leo264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0DoovxYBU
took it and thanked the bartender. He turned to Miranda, and she knew that264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7WQyAkUVi
their conversation ended here.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSRZ8PPPjB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSaYJo4FLA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwfy3y8U5K
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9HOUrb3ly
“It was nice seeing you again,” said Leo. “Enjoy your drink.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvhdWmgrhy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwu2IVMJQi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡband8UiYPS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvsQu99Gpd
“Thanks,” said Miranda. She didn’t know what to say next as Leo took his leave.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwHQDvGn10
The thought of being just a stranger to him didn’t sit well with Miranda. She264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE6EvbbL2m
wanted to be close to him. How will she be able to do that?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBpSQthzK7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWGOp3iNwP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPxtppVqe8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj35Zk0HWbX
Her eyes fell to the table Leo was heading to, and she saw Carly talking with264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoELHMQUQdB
so much glee. She didn’t seem to have a care in the world, and it hurt Miranda264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4jWJN2GQl
that she should be the one close to Leo and not her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIgz5rCRVo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyOkX3nRDw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngtgeaU7QW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYaBGoYmSS
Carly turned her eyes to Leo, who was approaching the table, and she couldn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEphAvvBOM
help but smile at him. Miranda was smart enough to turn her head so that Carly264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82aeZjFxe3
wouldn’t see her. Miranda knew her time was up, and she was guessing that she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvdrgNF9Vi
might have overstayed at the bar. It was time to go back upstairs. She thought264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45sdUpbNU2
of looking back at Leo, but it wasn’t worth the risk. It was best for her to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFI6X7L2aF
leave, but after she finished her martini.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTkcYmt628
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ9CTPvtDI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFinbT3WtqX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAuhFv3xVt
A few seconds before that, Trina came back to the table with two bottles of264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOp0lUzkWv
cider. She sat herself down and placed one bottle in front of Kim.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe67HxJSGpT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4mSAbV45b
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVDi3heKhQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbFRldXPk0
“Thanks,” said Kim.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSEXhjCf7k

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAZVV1R46b
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqj13E3uEB
“Have you thought of what to do?” Trina asked. “We can’t see Leo from here.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYYqDitobo
That’s if you really plan on catching Leo with his lover.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllp17d1sRr
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBxiZ5NJuv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAKYBIvIPl
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozxnxYhivP
“I thought of sitting by the counter and peeping on him,” Kim suggested.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FOB9vZCvL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhu25ONfwA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPYbkWnh6A
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS9NY2quRM
“Sounds like a good idea,” said Trina. “Even if we were to see him walking out,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnpDSEP1qo
it would be impossible for us to see where he would go.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIx4WrtCmD

As the two women stood at the table, Trina stopped Kim by placing her hand on264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkveDy5YE2t
Kim’s shoulder.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dMfZFe587
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP06U7F1K4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisIwZKdfF7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccjICgRg2Z
“I know you’re tired of me saying this,” said Trina, “but doing this is a bad264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHrfWzMVnN
idea. We should get out while we can.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoJsme1HBj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXGKG8gvfs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNIoyO0bvq
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1asYr4czIc
Kim scoffed. “I gave you my word earlier, didn’t I? There is no need to repeat264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJqwdmPcHu
the conversation. Let’s go.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO0n1fYHEt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSPimHXvwX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVZHouL7j3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNKFnZd0p1
Trina’s hand fell away from Kim’s shoulder as Kim started to make her way to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY1GWot4s8
the other side of the bar. Trina followed her, and coming back the way they264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE9WjW2Cyr
came, they stopped at the counter. From the angle at which they stood, they264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFRe5dmZQW
were able to see Leo’s table.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0BSWeD1i0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbv1bKT6hsA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfbHr4vDH6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1BsFGXH0q
The two of them sat on the stools, facing each other. Trina had her back facing264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAx6NGyFTm
Leo’s table, shielding Kim from plain sight if the worst happened.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShlOntLpbW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlheonRkhVf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQIOYzPMrL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6CEN9KPBk
“I can’t see so much, so you’ll be telling me what’s going on,” said Trina.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84O9jmqL5e
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nwueO2UxK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4yRIKIkiH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfEguSBi5H
“You’re overthinking things,” said Kim. “You can take a peek and still won’t be264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWoU4tb4Rg
seen. Oh, look, Leo is coming over.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzLwaD0SD6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVd5PsILkd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTOs9UaG1J
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3qsK2n3u3
Trina turned her head slightly to see Leo approach the other side of the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvnVh9nSLY
counter. He wasn’t looking in their direction, so they were at ease as they264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxPZD07FUa
looked on. They saw him ask the bar tender for another refill of nachos. He264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPFfXF4LU5
soon looked at the woman beside him, and Kim held Trina’s hand on the bar264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujNFDWHJY0
counter in anticipation.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRkVHCDDWn
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6L2wQSKU8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4O0avj0HNe
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDfd5HEbvA
“Could it be her?” Kim asked, almost squeezing Trina’s hand.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39V8Qz7jWl
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72LlRxk9KL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8cll2lX7d
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqpSVkHOE1
Trina looked at the woman beside Leo as she turned to look at him. She shook264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXyNxkI1Aq
her head. “I don’t think so,” said Trina.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRJBfHFiur
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1hRumfEgi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYMieVJjey
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3mnFtENDN
They watched as Leo talked with the woman briefly, and as soon as he took the bowl264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0xnDrKu07
of nachos, he addressed the woman and went back to his table. Trina shook her264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wT17Kf3Kw
head.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1WM98RjoV
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblkpLjgQsf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUWPwAm62t
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEiTQe2xDs
“She’s not the one,” said Trina. “They looked like they knew each other, but264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUQfvr1f9E
not at that intimate level.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9uGTeIlKB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sCbnoHs5L
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPJWDSQQIg
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihU04XgwjG
“Are you sure?” Kim asked. “Because he was smiling at her.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV6alde2Jy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsNv2BI1OC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkL8NT36ZE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlc4nMpzT60
Trina rolled her eyes before turning them at her friend. “Does every smile he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9gljkZPhK
gives everyone mean that he is flirting with them?” she asked. “He looks like264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ063Ris4kWv
he was being friendly to me.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdebPw4cg3Q
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO9xUJrMbR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwlbJQT5S6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVVGZLOswI
“What if she’s the one and they were communicating in some way through code?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzIfMQmIOg
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wposo3UYI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwbiflIwu9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUXzgEGaB0
Trina raised an eyebrow at her. Kim knew she was taking things a little far and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe9rErlat0
looked the other way, taking a sip from her bottle and feeling embarrassed.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZkZv9rMXz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O7IsfblMC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfv3jzYZQa
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFLbT8ZpHY
Angel stared at her empty glass of soda, concluding that she needed to refill.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1A2eLuE1Z
She excused herself from the table and started to make her way to the bar264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9FjjxybKU
counter.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXepydfJuG
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazxPxL8J7b
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhuxh3dy16
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDRj81fTJc
Miranda finished her martini in one huge gulp. She placed the glass on the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5zPy5mynT
counter, leaving the bill under the glass. After she stepped down from her264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hTJLHFvsd
stool, she turned around and came shoulder to shoulder with someone.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr5zrWbdOq
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkReZGQh8J
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZBXZDB9Z2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwKHCrChCQ
“Oh, sorry about that,” said a beautiful woman in a stunning red velvet dress.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMKKgh5rS7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu49vu6x0x6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQtowDV5xZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbvedYZk53
Miranda almost panicked, for she thought the person she had bumped into was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIINjd1nRCp
someone familiar. However, looking closely, she realized that it was Angel,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNYGpWdNnP
Carly’s older sister. Miranda knew Angel didn’t know about her, but Miranda264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXPVbeeBbu
knew who she was. In the past, when she and Carly used to work together, Carly264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI3iNr0tzK
had shown Angel’s pictures to her a few times. Miranda acknowledged that the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6vXj5jjON
sisters had looks that could kill, but there was something about Angel’s beauty264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfKsWNNZXS
that was different from Carly’s.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnADZ1ZqSgg
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8TX43Eoha
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXbw8XtKIg
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2PzdkJE8n
“Oh, it’s nothing,” said Miranda.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjbjTG2BMp
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufoFM7tQ3L
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y7rq0jtKl
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCPG0XTt0E
Angel smiled at her before turning her attention to the bartender. Miranda264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE0ZdXbIKs
turned around to head out of the bar when she froze in her tracks. She felt264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvx5vCkhGA
caught in a trap as she looked ahead. This is bad.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zmg5PXZM0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpmYcUPj3A
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelEJ61xmvb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBGDqjwF4K
Carly’s eyes fell on Miranda as she looked over to the bar to check on her264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTD2vPJ0Ll
sister. Miranda happened to be right in her line of vision. Carly’s eyes264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm3PmqFGmB
widened with fear as thoughts started to run through her head. What was Miranda264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz7lv57yO5
doing here?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfTo2H9wfX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMDxGIYRdW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TvW4yZhdD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16kyfEip1O
Angel thanked the bartender after refilling her glass, and when she turned264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESboDYjufD
around, the woman whom she bumped into stood still like a statue. Angel read264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9vw89sWp1
her body language, and she realized that the person seemed to be in some kind264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2pLG2j8nD
of shock. She noticed the woman looking towards the table where her sister and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe2VQXJFxk
the others were. Moreover, she saw Carly look at the woman with the same264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZzihA8V4N
surprised look.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkg9aNNovX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQf6YqZx9j6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu18VIDOwk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMkyzu0eVV
Angel raised an eyebrow. She was just about to touch the woman’s shoulder to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbheZi6UPi
get her attention, but she thought better of it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxH8nTqJjo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WBPcSdx2g
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGiNAUEzId
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14bU0ntNKL
“Hey, are you okay?” Angel asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS45aBkNJt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrufbcmj7RH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpSpTsdYlM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULQu9aCqv5
Miranda jolted back to reality and turned to look at Angel. She nervously264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SF9S4NDFU
chuckled. “Uh, yes, I’m fine, thanks,” said Miranda. “I thought I saw someone I264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1kCWYPGQU
knew, but I was mistaken. I should go now.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHnl19InOk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1NDZQ0idm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArdCN9GxYB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0v76reY11
Before Angel could say anything, Miranda quickly made her way out of the bar.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GcrQbKqPZ
Those who were wondering what took Angel so long turned to the bar counter and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ3CrZkRgN
saw the woman quickly walk away from Angel. Angel looked at the young woman,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoWVZGeYhp
and she turned her attention back to the table, specifically on Carly. Carly264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXvViovv5w
didn’t turn her head right away as she looked at her sister. She didn’t want to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCXavH8tUT
look like she knew Miranda, and it was best to act natural. Angel went back to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ibJyieJE5
the table.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡier9vevOnN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUh29GYNj3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavzMuSIF8K
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HGFM7AT3G
“What was that about?” Eric asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCuni6BUyb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCI9adYSFv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3LGQVWZwn
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGYyV5ef54
“Oh, she thought she recognized someone, but she was mistaken,” said Angel as264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem26fmr2O6
she sat back down on her seat, placing her glass on the table.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyWbsow3dK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLy8trvxk2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOxrdLOpbW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gNv6o39WM
“She must have meant me,” said Leo. Carly looked at him, surprised at his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWLpdh8slH
statement. “Remember the time we went to that candy store a few days ago?” He264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP4lHr8Pam
looked at Eric. “She was the one who bumped into that moving shelf.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVFiAIkH0y
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsFIPc8nKp
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLLyLvXeGs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshDMht5SaU
“Oh, I see,” said Angel. “But she said she didn’t recognize anyone.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYKXbttJ4J
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4a1fMcple
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEw5yIaO9aN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iaqyJsfrJ
“Obviously she was nervous because of Leo again,” said Eric. “I bet the reason264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgjRPUzKKu
she bumped into that shelf was because of your scary looks.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRtR9lpzmY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaio1aD5vg
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvXOS3eK3F
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IyGkZC0ea
Angel shook her head. “Not this again,” she said.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbprekdvjTM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXShACEqsD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnXeVZhe5a
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6zKOCt7Qo
“Mind you,” Leo started to say, “when I went over to the bar, I actually talked264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j7GvtjYM1
to her. She didn’t seem nervous to me.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpyoGXBEZy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg5CN3VQXk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQE0GQhOr9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeV8G8k1zn
“She obviously fell for your good looks, not the scary one as Eric had put it,”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiDrvG9Kfk
said Marco.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmAlvypQ5x
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnYjzyp4fY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJRdwYyCHZ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54exPbmBIM
“You really are a bully, Eric,” said Oliver. “It’s not Leo’s fault that he is264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZP5dLLPRwl
more handsome than you.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7FnJYWDB5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzdUGF1JWR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN95r09cbom
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtXow53SOT
Marcos and Angel laughed at Eric. Eric, on the other hand, felt like hitting264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbbGzfElyo
his brother on the head. Carly had been silent the whole time as thoughts ran264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqF9EoA4x9
through her head. Miranda actually had a talk with Leo, and that scared her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYJnhkoxNc
Could she have told Leo that she was also there at his bachelor party?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjFDsnwWAk
Moreover, they met days ago at the candy store, and she finds herself here at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitgiFrIhqm
the hotel. Why did Carly feel like she was suddenly in jeopardy?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrpRSKPIPT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLehzq8TRwG
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pSkKNaeHi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1mUB0OJwO
Angel wiped away the tears from her eyes, and she soon looked at Carly, who264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtS5QPOBhe
looked lost in thought. She couldn’t help but wonder what her sister was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9g2LXmUid
thinking about.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dLCUN1PMK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CcWFXJkx3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvnZlMISJb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4zFqT8gSw
“You, Oliver, have really cracked me up today,” said Marco as he continued to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7ehRgoaEH
laugh. “I can’t wait for us to hang out like this again.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBEWrey1uc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsszP6FdMS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5HSXsmsz4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLgWWwppCc
Oliver beamed at Marco happily, while Eric felt like slapping that look off his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5XQnUzPux
brother’s face.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlUa06xR3G
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGcBU6c8um
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qKRqbThFw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoaWbOrfng
“Yeah, Oliver has really cracked me up too,” said Angel as she turned to smile264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67OQoxeGXZ
at Oliver.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgXeaPdcS4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JAwBs4j7t
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qs8nzCPa3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohxSzeKxgZ
“I hate to wrap things up here,” said Marco, “but I’m done for the night.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfkgSp1qJC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYkJiwhEU5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D1B0dS3Rv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUVYUoaNO9
“Oh, that’s a shame,” said Eric. “We were really having fun.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbrgQRm656
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbiHYNuDcc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHhTGsN8CW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdvLP9XqFV
“Don’t you think it’s also getting late?” Angel asked the others. “We better be264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NkQjNDHRG
heading out too.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyEjIq4AVJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabr0Pn5nDi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfbJ1zEpJ0
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLpvEj4oaf
Leo gave Angel a look. He still didn’t get the chance to be alone with Carly.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57KALYN1wD
When Marco said he was leaving, he thought he had the opportunity. He turned to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEucVsWpW5L
look at Carly beside him, and she seemed to look lost in her own world.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsJg3ya1SW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8gaT9NOoA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvweshAs15v
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQLCNzDZ0T
“We should,” said Oliver. “I want us to pass somewhere and get ice cream on our264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg692pxM6xe
way home.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvkwd20kii
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DCc0B35NM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnIn9C1Ein
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu1VKKsrXi
“Uh, wait a minute,” said Leo. “Some of us would like to spend a little time264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TpJF60Rpp
here.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxgZJAKqLx
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uENJVC6D4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02ETE5MgN9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSAUKBwAyJ
Angel threw Leo a look, knowing what he was playing at. She wanted to leave264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3ziMLR56M
because the possibility of Leo seeing Kim and Trina was high, and she didn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkovc4dmxuM
want to risk it. Moreover, if Kim does see Leo spending his time alone with264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRR5TcVcY7
Carly, she will realize without a doubt that Carly is Leo’s lover. If only she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84sPL4bAZR
could tell Leo without making him so upset, she thought to herself.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnklb9Wm9ck
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKs3h0hp8Dv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn4XF92xfk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZI1Iyy5XE
“Leo’s right,” said Eric, looking over at Leo. “I would like to stay here for a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOZkyrVfv2
little longer.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxn0wQFzW4
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSbTvbqdV8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TNZbidcc1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXgR1QHZBn
Angel sighed, but not the kind that anyone would notice. It looks like she lost264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8j40RhwNQk
this one. She just has to find a way to work around it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7j6W4YJeI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2MifmEGnv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2APLQOhmu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74lFoAWLhu
“Well, then I’ll leave you to enjoy yourselves,” said Marco as he stood up from264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSBOFxiMk2
his seat. “Before I forget,” he said as he turned to Angel. “I would love to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosPs5E3Syd
get your number, Angel.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GhD6IgBbX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdL5JJ3D1Tb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MSuYbCXbt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVf9EA0jSFY
Angel almost forgot about that, and she blushed immediately when Marco asked her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBLgBjU6N0
She watched him pull out his phone. He turned his eyes on her, giving her his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6sf3R1yXW
full attention. Angel hesitated for a bit before giving out her number, and he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90LMH24Ddg
typed it down on his phone. Eric and Leo looked on, wondering why Marco looked264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6Mp5eLknm
so eager to get her number. Carly wasn’t paying much attention, so she couldn’t264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4m04Uqwyr
care less.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gS2uw7Cbr
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMJqQ8E4UO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIoxnbSGHj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhq3Am7Q7o
“I really enjoyed my time with you,” said Marco, pocketing his phone away. “We264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUzxBlSLnM
should do this sometime soon.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcw92oA6r4c
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbZwKqtJ5y
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRZ57KO044
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh94hM7Oqq
“Sure,” said Eric, putting up a smile for Marco, which proved to be very264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEUERDpg9d
difficult.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdiQ0jQyqw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy58Kd9NYwJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTrRqaLAJs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaWk6ZLZHH
Marco wished everyone a good night, and everyone responded back. Even Carly,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlug77Y5dO
who looked absent-minded, said goodnight. Before leaving, Marco gave Angel a264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeztiiArED
wink, telling her to expect a message from him anytime soon. Angel only smiled,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55LvCifQB2
feeling embarrassed that he said that in front of everyone.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw1xcgYApu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBc1bbzrvL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHQh4GTFxh

“Marco really likes you, Angel,” said Oliver after Marco had left the bar.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAmYY7UqAy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d7O2gxitK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5l29RazJ2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MNc0I9eUy
“Why do you say that?” Angel asked, looking at the boy with wide eyes.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcn39bXqHH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOwoLy2Vzu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMOU6rX4ca

“Don’t listen to him,” said Eric. “Kids don’t know what they say nowadays.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLWQ1c0bti

264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrey3cMAbK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rqfnelypx
Leo turned to Carly, and it was then that he noticed that she hadn’t talked264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVasYU38QXO
much at all for a while.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUVbjp5285
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4ES7zpEHC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON7Rm8B8rQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGXl4sxRcA
“Hey, Carly, are you okay?” Leo asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8zDaHeAz5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbR5vduUxm
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwfkq9xsBl
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0CzAH76bi
Everyone turned to look at Carly. She tried to hide it with a smile, telling264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1l2JL04Qz
Leo that she was alright. Angel couldn’t point out why her sister looked low,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡearcFNEAWQ
but she knew she could use this to her advantage.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfw6kgDLjRs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pxE9o26e2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYUfZxC2UI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawfjLLEhCo
“You look tired, Carly,” said Angel. “Maybe we should call it a night and head264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFSC10MS4V
home.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUX9fVnU6e
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc2HkGYmvH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFPSFPqFgS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTzMTzoS0Y
Carly looked at Angel, and a small smile appeared on her face. She definitely264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj95MaASaDp
needed to leave. The fact that Miranda was here messed with her head a lot, and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2ZCd8x3z0
she felt like being as far away from the hotel as possible. Considering that,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBEYPc9rF8
Miranda might still be around.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTSLFAg0TF
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwRcP4qABM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6tUYEEAds
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiVZzX3dC3
“Angel is right,” said Carly. “I’m feeling rather overwhelmed. We’ve had a long264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHfDbOKMyr
day, and I didn’t get enough rest.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeFA9s7KhL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmUNgXXpSx
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiNnQvnYjJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VZuorszNc
Leo looked a little disappointed, but now that he saw Carly more clearly, she264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ148ui97irE
didn’t look too well at all. It looks like his plans for tonight might as well264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkWchiekzX
go down the drain. If Carly was feeling too tired, it was understandable that264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrPfs84UD3
she wasn’t going to enjoy his company alone with him either.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k0zBSg4V9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEswE0hr4br
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJma8yDcKd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqppVU1t2D3
“Alright,” said Leo. “We better get going if we’re going to get Oliver’s ice264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXf8eDmc4yt
cream.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMDZoQoTSL
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZdLW6Gvfc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6KVY8Fgc5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6ElCQDhCu
“We better check out of that room and get our stuff then,” said Eric.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAMX6Z5jQA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BanhhzHLd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sHa4Kdp5O
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0MLWdNc5q
“Oh, I forgot about that. Why don’t you go to the room while I go bring the car264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHjZkInxYn
around?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITcBwLZVKN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxc3LF8cnX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxWv5PE1W8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKfB82uRt3
“Sure.” Eric quickly stood up from his seat and started to make his way out of264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWLTvTAbM5
the bar area.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVwmdDMd6x
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea40EihlAv
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtCIA3miez
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm003OWuUUa
Trina and Kim, who still sat observing Leo, noticed Eric stand up from his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGinbrRVKM
seat. The others were still at the table, and it was only a moment later that264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zHapoz9cL
they started to stand up.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oLHHYfhGO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyOyHXLGpj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMCmDvTPc3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIwS9obOUA
“Look, they’re leaving,” said Trina.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkv7yvfC59
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx1o5OlaGE
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5CGHU40O9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2maXdqc4GO
“Do you think Leo will get this opportunity to see his lover?” Kim asked.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhL9V8jgDs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWdCfww7yP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMDwnWrmvw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5Rdx2PaUm
“He can’t do that with the others tagging along,” said Trina. “Let’s watch and264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BuqANy00D
see.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m142O8SdV
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNiUTg8Pj1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24LaGR1Ovo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6bz0mZAAJ
Angel and Oliver started to make their way to the entrance of the bar when264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8f9OEE2Xg
Angel, through the corner of her eye, saw Kim and Trina. This was bad. From264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvts6FhAaWa
where she stood, she feared Leo might also notice them. She slowed her pace264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkWcE01JAW
with Oliver and waited for Carly and Leo to catch up. If she was lucky, Leo264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRERnKHliO9
might pass by without noticing Kim and Trina, but one can never be too sure.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWUXbyANVb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1p6B17GWq
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVq3Mt3mYj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkn20IGYcI
Carly made her way to Angel and Oliver, with Leo following slowly behind her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzMIj7UmrO
Without much thought, his eyes found their way to the bar counter, and he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkncZL4WlQ
noticed someone familiar at the other end. Only when the person turned in his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLQBb1aGR8
direction and their eyes fell on him did he realize who it was.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJSUqCVlH5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTyyzWKM1P
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51pcQFRadO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTECDkIUMdI
“Oh, my gosh,” said Kim as she held Trina’s shoulder in a tight grip. “He’s264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMW0d4LkGi
seen us.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBHfgsuhWJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJobUFXv0wD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3AmTOTYZN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThizQZTDbB
Trina choked on her own words that she couldn’t speak as he saw Leo staring264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQHr8zrTrI
back. His eyes slowly started to flame with anger. Or was it fury?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9a67hmopf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt38lwPv19
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MilSIbiEy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAICwds1npN
“Trina, we better go,” said Kim.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnqBmVtAcO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPtUdjgZDI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxgCaRy7EH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZwDUB6Cvq
Leo couldn’t believe Trina and Kim were there by the counter, staring back at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftDdbxJZJx
him. Did they happen to be here by coincidence, or did were they here because264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyvPDWMwJW
of him? He noticed how scared they looked at him, as if they had been caught264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZcJyJwaI9
doing something wrong. That confirmed that they were following him. He decided264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdSiKKpxTQ
he was going to give them a piece of his mind.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVcigu62lT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsFZU7QShf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R1YUPFrFP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaalHz4xs7
Just as he was about to make his way over to them, a gentle touch fell on his264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvU1YwPXMR0
shoulder, stopping him from proceeding further. He looked to the side, and he264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1KOzynIos
found Angel standing right beside him, her hand on his shoulder. She looked at264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zVFBWyLre
him with her soft brown eyes; they were stern yet so peaceful. There was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5YKaknTL7
something about her look and her presence beside him that made him slowly start264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5M5zahqz7
to feel the anger in him dissipate like smoke.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUDaPU5LXT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqA55ywGTj7
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡME5O5GCwxQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dG0H6OI4b
She shook her head. “Not here,” she said to him in her normal tone of voice.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOVw6mBE1r
“Now is not the time to make a scene.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dFJwMDB0Y
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcel3Op9Moh
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsEWhyWpWl
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9N3gDmrjA
Leo sighed, and he felt his muscles slowly start to relax. Angel was right; now264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSnYJ1OGRf
wasn’t the time to throw a tantrum. He looked back at Kim, who continued to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0j0fKX9dy
look at him, still with a scared look on her face.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oFlKUslY5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ9U0cnEIt
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqfy7u1erM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQZN6W7eWd
"Fine," he said to Angel as he looked at her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd49o0Mobu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcw5xJT2e9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxynzjTA49Q
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzwb8ZYbMM
Angel gave a smile of relief. She turned to look at Trina and Kim, giving them264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc202EyoHL
a nod of her head. The two best friends looked relieved, but they knew that264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ugmhVzL4C
this wasn’t over.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEFfrdObKw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8b5PrHuLe
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8lT4gfstY
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQvlVhKmN8
Leo turned around to head out of the bar. Fortunately, Oliver and Carly were264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATyegHrgp5
way ahead of him, so they didn't see his silent altercation with Kim and Trina.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBEtgOD2kC
He walked out of the bar with Angel following closely behind him.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyGoxKtcCT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqOwhFwBZU
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPirybkV7s
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XBiTdCDDR
"Thanks for that back there," Leo said to her.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJWQcMKUsd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOItaBVRTA
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvjK6Gcy3w
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1XOAkh4iI
"Well, getting yourself angry wasn't going to do you or me any264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvr71lgcOa
favors," said Angel.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xtM332PTb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHGdqvH8cH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGaE9QCNg5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh17x4TFp97
Leo turned to look at her through the corner of his eye. "How long have264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQjgjxhN7r
they been there?"264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm41bV7AwM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEfdnYux5x
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhW5QH8pCb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTXI0Ffo19
Angel found no point in lying to him. "I noticed them during our dinner. I264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriVkvMI8EG
didn't want to tell you in front of our guests."264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQKT9rXbX6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFh2S0mNKiw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0QIuI9PAk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNNdCHZGen
Leo scoffed. "It's obvious that they were following me. I guess that’s the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6ZhuzwU7a
reason why you didn’t want me to be alone with Carly."264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMWfJbsNpR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpnIfUfYV6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xR4CxQFFk
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJI8rAAycy
"I don't want them to find out about your relationship with her just yet,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkIWZddmnE
so you've got to be careful from now on."264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLOicj9LzT
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUBjR0V2nH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBpnabBZIr
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JrtMUS5Rl
A smile appeared across Leo's face. The two might have their differences, but264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw2tqSblNE
it was clear to see that Angel did care about his relationship with her sister.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcfRgMLDP2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEiWXwl2Lj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrIEkXRh7a
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXghiT5vQt
As they continued to walk down the stone path towards the fountain where Oliver264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8nJoQhNFb
and Carly were, Leo tried to fight off the feeling of gratitude towards Angel.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mHLTt7tcs
In the end, he decided to let the feeling settle in for one night, and one264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHphPlY74fH
night only.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87dYZIffjb
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZM7sAkb0bs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTkddRHpsS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0EwdIdg5q
“That was a close one,” said Trina as she held her chest, breathing deeply.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCiRQvUIwv
“For sure, I thought Leo was going to come charging at us.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngKHHjJUrW
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcxsN099Xs
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ2GuSC6DJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66wGNORzSz
Kim sighed in relief. “I hate to say this, but we really do have Angel to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N9YvR9gW9
thank,” she said. “Though I feel Leo will confront us about it.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5a3vvORKI
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dYK3qtGtS
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXmJQ8xjey
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJTVPg1QzK
“Yeah, but Angel talked to him, and he calmed down in an instant.” Trina leaned264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi806d6zZSc
against the bar counter, looking for the bartender. “Leo barely listens to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v6WI87iCM
anyone, but he somehow listened to her. It’s best to receive his wrath264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMBn5roXRz
privately rather than in an open place where he can embarrass us. I’m going to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5W8fapsI5
order a cocktail and drink to thank Angel for saving our sorry lives. Do you264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozxAiqX7wm
want one?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiJhsXo5Gu
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAZJghcUpo
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNYtLZxJlR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngW8Ii1Rd5
Kim gave a nod to Trina, and while her friend tried to get the attention of the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKOls6xBSJ
bartender, she couldn’t help but look at Leo with Angel walking beside him as264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9XXsWgUas
they went further away from the bar. Memories of her and Leo started to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMHoKlPSSm
surface, and she couldn’t recall once when he ever listened to her when he was264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFudkYVtMpI
upset. Trina was right. Leo barely listens to anyone, except this time around,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjUlDzUFmT
when Angel spoke to him. Her eyes fell upon Angel, who, even in that red velvet264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOzbly7lkN
dress, walked effortlessly with elegance beside Leo. Was there something about264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4qqwjRoXF
Angel that Kim wasn’t aware of?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIyVZ777F9
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUH9egzN41
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyreWjdS3DK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyghdjlWuG
Miranda quickly stepped out of the elevator and ran down the hall back to the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoBTMtIyRe
room where Red Lion and Mr. Walters were. She knew her thirty minutes were up,264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzxkNQ5c6L
and she had been so distracted that she didn’t notice her phone vibrate in the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmPWpJTuJf
pocket of her jeans. When she checked in the elevator, she found three missed264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvenHfqA6N
calls from Mr. Walters, and she knew she was in for it.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1sNHKhJUX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKy3vv7zBqB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwGq1VQFi6
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dHpBooXmv
As soon as she reached the suite, the door flew open before she could even264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFXHjoBSt7
knock. She thought the first person she would see was Red Lion, but to her264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpGA1H6bxA
relief, it was Walters.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUjJuGm7aw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWBNZFYHtz
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwc8uypnVAX
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTelSwLbymF
“What took you so long?” he asked. “And why didn’t you answer my calls?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LbC2ANTK1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bKyLPwgVi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOdSMYOi6P
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4iBEpIhDs
“I’m sorry,” said Miranda. “I got a little distracted. Is he here?”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9qYfMQ5H5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAyUjtxGh8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7hKhQA9DO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCNn3bwCnU
“Yeah, but count yourself lucky,” said Walters as he stood aside to let Miranda264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39ggiCxyNy
through the door. “Red Lion was going to kill you if he wanted to.”264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l66jp49kV
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1JajAWkiM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67O46lDSrN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxpgFGFf7x
Miranda slowly stepped into the room, looking towards the living room area. Red264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwie80xORFr
Lion's comrade sat on the couch. His eyes fixed on the TV screen that showed264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WsDHyIDKK
the football game. Two more people sat on the other couch. They wore black264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6G5RXkNSC
suits, and they were of Asian descent. The two looked like bodyguards. Were264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOKCiHYtcH
they here with the host who called for this meeting? Moreover, where was Red264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPtBAL8Drr
Lion?264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg9hS7aCtj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9R9xNHxmN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqs8kARr8l
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBVxZgUCVU
When she entered the living room area, she heard voices coming from the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzy51NH0g3
balcony. She saw Red Lion standing by the open doors of the balcony. Someone264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwOTavXoUV
stood in front of him, talking to him. Miranda couldn’t see who it was as the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaJK8BSp7y
person stood on the balcony, and the doors hid him from view.264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUSE7MH7s8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS8UBeaoq2
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7B37vn9Ff
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYQNMeMXEg
Red Lion noticed Miranda's presence and turned to look at her. He surprisingly264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFHgkzq4Hk
smiled. She almost sighed in relief, for she really thought he was going to264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYHKiZRv7J
squeeze her throat for being late. He turned to the person who stood on the264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBGkUauPWF
