“Angel just ruined everything for me,” said Leo as he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXGcCapEeA
came to stand next to Eric by the bar counter.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzI2TFeZ7X
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliJGcf4EZN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A57SO0pR9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJsW7QlcLL
“What do you mean she’s ruined everything?” Eric asked.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnsij29Fc3

“Carly and I were supposed to run away together, but it’s like she caught on to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4sqNRAnE3
us.” Leo shook his head. “That’s why she stayed behind with Carly. She says she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuwX2y70N9
doesn’t want Marco to suspect anything.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOLKE525hN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0XJpdnHHm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQGN64zqSi
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDDEiOSOgt
Eric shrugged his shoulders. “Angel does have a point,” he said. “We don’t need425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZduEmNGW5
Marco knowing that the two of you are dating. He might tell his father, who, in425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqlL7IsdLj
turn, will tell your dad. Well, you know how this vicious cycle goes.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzk7tS7fxA
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPkcUrvMFh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUouT71Kpv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlivc9zqYFB
Leo sighed. “You do have a point.” He turned to his cousin. “Go on. I know you425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjIRmM3aW4
want to say it.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrfT0EMkiV
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKTl3XiXNH
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt0gKaP3OZ

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZP5vsEscmT
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIo28EXjb6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NK6T0gZT3
Leo sighed again, deeply this time. “That she has my best interest at heart.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctrZF8gHFM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSpWUzh2CD
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd61hwnCbDT
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAFBzksrod
Eric looked at Leo, this time with a beaming smile on his face. “Of course,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t7aPeI91T
because that’s just how she is.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF97lI9qIBp
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6Fw6W83ea
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL6GRksiRR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiw6QmFoqg
“Can you stop smiling like that?” Leo looked irritated. Eric’s smile shone425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXp0htKrCEW
brightly like the sun. Leo felt blinded as he turned to look away. “You’ve had425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5z7Bt4ZUK
your fun.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMhHYDdQP1

“I just want to rub it in. Before we went into the garden, I was about to tell425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡip7qnG5bz5
you the same thing, but it slipped my mind. It’s good that Angel thought way425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaFB5YvHfv
ahead and talked to Carly about it.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrTcMY3z2P
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaFF9UEQEg
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwXEY86wyV
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn82FuRQlA
Leo felt dumb. None of that came to mind, and he felt like slapping himself for425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrs4JbRRRq
being so stupid and careless. He hoped Marco wasn’t paying enough attention at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSHPNq7gaO
first for him to realize there was anything between him and Carly. It seems he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAzW9cera4
has Angel to thank, but Leo was too embarrassed to think of doing so.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpFgP6DHyj

“Yeah, I already asked,” answered Eric. “They serve non-alcoholic drinks as425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRZlajfdie

Leo left the counter and found Carly where he had left her. She was slowly425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUzHTRjSRh
looking around, taking in the view of the place. There were bright bulbs425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LJ5Fj7Wyr
hanging over the area, and she apparently stood out with her beautiful dress.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1lIgVJQUZ
If they weren’t around so many people, he wasn’t going to hesitate to kiss and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA80Yy3Wo3U
caress her. He smiled at her instead and gestured with his head to her, saying425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BBv4Y38gb
that they should join Angel and the others.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivgRh4Oz7D

Trina and Kim stood by the fountain as they watched Leo approach the table425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX0Kc6yEC7
where Angel, Oliver, and the Asian man sat. Carly joined him soon afterwards.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0pYmhI2Kv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cHPtuUCji
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgY5kOW2dyk
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ3uLiIiR2
“How long do you think we’ll stay here until he decides to see his lover?”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaFc8iiB54
Trina asked as she sat at the edge of the pool basin of the fountain.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFDh2RIdAj

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUfv3I3VNs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBxqWQTcyd
Kim rolled her eyes. “We can go there and take a seat, but we should sit out of425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZISX2WMsM0

“Good idea. Let’s wait for Eric at the counter. Leo looks like he’s checking to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF95pkJroz
see what everyone needs because he hasn’t sat down. They will easily see us if425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZtmMmAx40
they aren’t at their table.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7dBurEFCs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvi4LSvNFS
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGsBKu3Z3k
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyWSrav1tW
Kim agreed with Trina. They continued to watch Leo as he made his way back to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9541VH9uU
the counter.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb4VUWtVRK

Meanwhile, Miranda, who had been watching over the balcony, followed Leo’s425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASVhPv2SKT
movements. She kept telling herself that she needed to get down there. If she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSIfTQR2ne
so much as stepped out of the room, no doubt Red Lion would have her head, and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVmCPmUDkB
whatever the meeting was all about, she wasn’t going to be a part of it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY10FZABQJ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5XZNhy2aF
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPq8iOb56m
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMmw9dIljg
She huffed. If that was the consequence, she was going to have to deal with it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhd9rCPcGE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ickvg5JWR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJoz0rRnid
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe2s086g9R
Without giving much of a second thought, Miranda turned around and went back425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4behgf7TE
inside the room. The football game they were watching was on a half-time break,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJwpOms7cN
and the three men were there, talking aloud about the game. She approached425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dgeEb9uij
them, and to get their attention, she loudly cleared her throat.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghhEsDJNsh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzQY89QUmO
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1lrraqouJ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w0m4tVBon
The three men all stopped talking and turned to look at Miranda. For a moment,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIWbbcNeBD
she gulped as her eyes landed on the terrifying face of Red Lion, who didn’t425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpBbFR0U1U
like the fact that she had disturbed them. She had to be quick with what she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxuKp6Nyie
wanted to say, as she was running on Red Lion’s patience.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNB2ngypnU
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ101r04TL7J
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fz413LsFj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsOLEZwVl2
“I’ll be stepping out for a bit,” Miranda announced.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZcNTMewSr
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUQc0yZx1x
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenE1UUts1p
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopIuwArl9P
There was a brief silence in the room as the three men continued to look at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiihE0ExxU
Miranda, expressionless. Red Lion moved in his seat, and Miranda feared that he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQt4CoLOej
would speak first.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoSY0wQo15
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2qVNye5mr
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQTN25PNQO
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25jB0JQOLR
“I don’t think going out is the best thing to do right now,” he said. “We’re425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8LF7cmDmi
waiting on someone, aren’t we?”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7oDtbwx2u

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1qcnz97Dp
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HoGkqjVRj
“Yeah, we are, but this person isn’t showing up anyway. You’ll let me know when425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rDJC3IDX4
he gets here. I really need to step out.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHjKcztRMg

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5TF7wb2Jc
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo6OhhwYO5
Red Lion continued to look at her. Walters now had a scared look on his face.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbTH7COHoH
He wished he could intervene, but things haven’t escalated between the two, so425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpOh484jZU
it was hopeless to do so.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90hR2ZOB0P
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NDbPfPS4a
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINUzGVLwMj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5YqPbVIEV
“Whatever,” said Red Lion as he leaned back on the couch. “You get back here in425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiow730Z7g
thirty minutes. If our host gets here before you, you better hurry back when425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxqpL1HJ68
Walters calls.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZOk3Na4gC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnJ5PV0xfN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMMM53xdr3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ37LrK9Aj
Miranda felt relieved. She thought she wasn’t going to be let go so easily.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEe0Mn8p8m
Moreover, the time Red Lion gave her was too little. However, she had to make425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCkFZXSSzB
use of this as much as possible, even if it meant seeing Leo down there for a425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxENLzg8gVV
minute.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3eSpbBdQc
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWszx7FQP7p
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiizSC31Xuu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOjYUgDyWy
“I will,” said Miranda. She didn’t waste any time as she made her way for the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4MmfkePLk
door.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAm5xBZ7hn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX5dtS0RLI
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LMab0UR6i
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK15S8FVKae
As soon as she walked out of the room, Hugo turned to Red Lion and asked, “Are425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9CLf6F7Sb
you sure letting her go out like that is a good idea? Our host can walk in at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OpjgB42GX
any moment.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFigi7F50s
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbWc14u3Pu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTspeDKol6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXDE3woYr9
“True, but it’s better than her staying out on the balcony while we wait,” Red425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpA0IwmPtO
Lion answered. “If you ask me, I would step out too if it wasn’t for the football425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2WS7NJ2QZ
game. But I was serious about my threat, so she better be here before he does.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrez8vLCRl

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugMz0r2Nqj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkyxcFZnB9
Walters didn’t say anything as he briefly looked at Red Lion before looking up425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOjWL1nKFS
at the TV. Red Lion wasn’t kidding when he said he was in a good mood, Walters425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaK7ynq8B0
thought to himself. Knowing Red Lion, he wasn’t going to let Miranda walk out425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjRqAlAvU8
of here. Something must have really put Red Lion into a good mood today, or425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1XAwLcJ1s

Leo and Eric came to join the others at the table with their drinks, and Eric,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPITDCAILw
on the other hand, carried a plate full of nachos and cheese. Oliver was so425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNQQavRPL3
delighted to see the plate of snacks that he couldn’t wait to eat them. Angel425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1KacVXvxf
had to warn him not to eat too much, or else he might have a bad tummy ache the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdAGYdW1sc

“I wouldn’t waste my breath warning the guy,” said Eric as he sat down on the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpITQzkcJLw
empty chair next to Angel after serving her a soda. “It’s a Friday, and he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2wX9tmqJS

Oliver, who sat on Angel’s other side, didn’t answer him as he took his mango425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaH1gQJfRM
milkshake and put the straw in his mouth. Angel, on the other hand, looked at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxDIuZxO68
Eric and shook her head.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlj7upDFxJ

Leo placed his glass of beer and Carly’s cocktail before taking his seat in425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQDStgXxA0
between them. He also served Marco a bottle of the cider that he wanted. Marco425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnS1j0C5Fm

“Hey, Marco,” said Angel as she turned to look at him, looking over Oliver, who425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYOd9UPmnB
sat in between them. “Have you ever been here before? In America, I mean.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqH34vDm4W
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2fJitAAbn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnImB6NDExs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCVFrgboNM
“Oh, yes, I’ve come here several times,” answered Marco. “I usually come here425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGA6AEwnFf
with dad on business trips. Inheriting the family business can be tiring,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AHA3hV5Qa
especially when they’re showing you the ropes. You just have to be there, even425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1RMX6U57j

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuQx76a1Ta

“Wait, does that mean I might inherit mum’s business of running the massage425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcC3eHsJno

Everyone at the table grew quiet as they looked at Oliver. At the same time,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE5wFs6fQU
they all burst into laughter.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0o35cNtZr

All the grown-ups at the table looked at the young boy, somewhat surprised at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p9F5LOaEl
his answer. They all stayed that way for a brief moment before Leo stretched425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRdL0axF1b
out his hand to get a nacho.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjtyltrVBY

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ8xafznZD

“Just like Leo said, a very wise response,” said Marco as he looked at Oliver425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdqSdprOuI
admirably. “Hopefully, you do inherit, and we will become business partners in425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAd2AnzCml

Leo slowly stopped chewing as he looked at Marco. He didn’t know if answering425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IkN8c7wVQ
Marco would be a good idea, but he only gestured with his head to acknowledge425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPy6wgsOtO

Angel was sipping on her drink when her eyes wandered away from the area in the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qm2G1fr9T
bar and to the fountain. She had a feeling Trina and Kim had been standing425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCJ7fpUk7L
there for a while. When she found there were only a couple looking at the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5yi5vUzqT
fountain, she started to worry. Could they have given up and left? Kim didn’t425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAMlZx7A4n
seem like the kind of person who would give up on anything, Angel thought.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPZWJuDOxI

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCCAziF94v

She was lucky enough to see Kim and Trina approach the open bar, and she had a425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc1vBn8ZHS
clear view of them. Leo sat with his back facing them, but she feared Eric and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAybZyhGTLW
Oliver would see them. Angel had to think of something to turn their eyes425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHWXEY1v6L
elsewhere. What should she do?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSw98L1VjG6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN81Zm9ofR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWmbAG5l22
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX8aNTDItB
She turned to Oliver, and he seemed distracted as he was eating the nachos425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDIPcVHG0E
hungrily. Turning to Eric, she found him somewhat staring at her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjojgVCF6k

Angel noticed Kim and Trina enter the bar area through the corner of her eye.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqixvRR0cjh
She couldn’t turn to look at them. That would only get Eric to look, and he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XwQhAYKCj
would spot them eventually. She had to keep eye contact with him for as long as425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjUwtFkgW1

“Nah, I think it was,” said Eric. “I’m betting that you didn’t have to try on425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jUMytWW3D

Leo felt like throwing up in his drink as he had a clear sight of Eric flirting425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxWC0qMAoL
with Angel. He wished he could tell them to get a room, but he knew better than425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2HulrlWwh
to say it when he was flirting with Carly some time ago.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR2EKzUNab

Angel saw through the corner of her eye that Kim and Trina had entered the bar425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGyAud1VUO
area and were now looking around for a table on the other side. It was best for425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5HDaEc91I
them to get a table where they couldn’t be seen. As soon as they were out of425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo5c9zyA9R
sight, Angel couldn’t help but feel relieved. She went on ahead to pick a425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VmuwYkeOK
nacho, dip it in cheese, and eat it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAyFGeNAcO

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgV1VVmrxuL
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i1VfjmacB
“If we weren’t on opposite sides, I would thank Angel for distracting him. I425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtG8esOJd7

Kim didn’t argue there. She somewhat agreed with Trina. She looked toward the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTA35L35VL
bar. Luckily enough, it was circular in shape with a bar shelve in the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSb9k56o7b
circumference, blocking the view of the other side. Therefore, she could see425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gaPlDOOQc
neither them nor them doing the same. Moreover, she could easily go over to the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbjVuAA6ph
counter for a drink.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBG4mOspU4O

“We should really think things through, Kim,” said Trina as she looked over at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffo3y8QMPs
the bar, realizing that the others were out of sight. “Is staying here really425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0dznYneoX
worth it? I doubt if he is going to meet his lover with the company that he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrdkZnH3sM

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsd5Ocallh

“I’m not leaving without you,” said Trina. “And besides, when we came in here,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYxB4HZqGb

A sudden laugh came out of Kim’s mouth. Tears almost filled her eyes. “You’re425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg17ofpG9FI

Trina raised an eyebrow. “Will you? I know you, Kim. Leo has been the only man425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNb8D7Nxiz6
you’ve been in love with since we were kids, and him breaking up with you and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0v3wl1ADY
calling off the wedding was a heavy toll. I don’t think you’ll be able to let425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDz7rQINZNR

Trina swallowed, thinking over her words before she spoke them out. “All I’m425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXfnKxL4Ob
saying is that it’s time to let Leo go. Thinking about him and his new lover425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwdFGsvIFS
isn’t going to do you any good.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX2D7CPh7P

Kim sighed. She stretched out her hand over the table and beckoned to Trina to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqT2XTAwtS
give her hers. Trina did likewise, and Kim held her friend’s hand tightly.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZLOCEAHZN

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnjMvCIdwj
Trina quickly stood up and left the table. Kim looked on at her best friend and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoHJaujMIh
knew she had pissed her off. She wished she could assure Trina that she was425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdyTITvKc6

Miranda rushed out of the elevator and ran into the garden like a mad woman.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI2ifBcaV8
Along the way, she pushed people aside. To some, she apologized, but to others,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZWw5QN3sR
she didn’t even give them a second thought.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu5VaDAHNk
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeOy9MQfoZ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk2hVvlh6r

There was only one way to the garden, and that was through the western wing425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCVCj7RicT
since the doors to the east wing weren’t open, said a woman she had met in the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfFatBkBzj
elevator who was going downstairs and who had lived in the hotel for a long425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxVTog2jfW

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUikpJujiE
She had just bypassed the fountain, heading towards the open bar, but then she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq01fuWwtBS
stopped herself short. She had to see where Leo was sitting first; he might as425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHV8qkAGFa
well have Carly seated right beside him, and Carly would no doubt see her if425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ndSlO6yjn
she wasn’t too careful.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dtidMjbmC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ783XwAeUSy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡespDFMoeyd

She didn’t have to look any further, as she saw Leo at the table with Carly425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9w1fTghzA
beside him along with other people. Leo was holding the floor for the time425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOev4KU6jZp
being, and Miranda noticed how everyone laughed at what he said. Carly, who sat425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfIYtsU04S
next to him, looked admirably at him. Miranda huffed. If only she could figure425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8iCrzrcZD
out a way to get the two apart, but now wasn’t the time to think about such425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmoDDajNrx

Miranda walked over to the counter and sat on the stool. Immediately, the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5Tr7qS8jI
bartender attended to her, and she ordered a martini. The bartender went on425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuulVpN0aD
ahead to make her drink as Miranda slightly turned around on her chair to look425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzcy56jXkb
at the table behind her. She had a clear view of Leo, and a smile came across425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEbjVM31PD

that Angel had to come by taxi to take me home," Carly shared. "We425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvqj64erk7

He and I had a competition to see who could drink more tequila. He passed out425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdGgZF2vkq
before he could take the last glass. I won, but at a cost. I puked in the car,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjrQzX4IPo

Marco turned to look at Angel. “What of you, Angel? Have you ever had any425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikGelpZZ8B

Marco, Leo, and Eric now turned their eyes on Angel with curious looks. Her425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuBFzvG6zl
cheeks flushed in embarrassment as she looked down at the table. She pressed425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnm0lzJVk5
her lips together before looking at everyone, including Oliver.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYDzgvTPod

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCXDhd9r6d

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOrRIJPfsL
The adults turned to look at Oliver, surprised. Oliver also looked back at them425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymFhd6uikS
as though he were judging them for giving him such a look.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31TWTCTcxY

Angel and Carly burst into laughter. Marco and Leo chuckled, while Eric looked425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZLf01tKHP
like he didn’t know what to do with his brother anymore.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69iSjLHSKl

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVAIbzgdl0

“Well, no, I’m being really genuine here. Angel carries a certain level of425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuObJtMYMr
elegance that I can describe as classy. I don’t know, but there’s much more to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwyucD6Dno

Everyone was silent except for Oliver, who loudly sucked at his smoothie425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CTs4EbPiy
through the straw. Angel found herself looking at Marco with her cheeks feeling425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwBNoSmLKj
like hot coals slapped across her face. Marco turned from Leo to Angel, and the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn1rH0zctF
corner of his lips rose to a smile. This time, his smile was gentle and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dvZHVBo9C
sincere.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIttBxFdpD

Leo swallowed, as he didn’t know how to respond to Marco’s statement. He saw425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygGobMuPdd
Marco shift his attention to Angel. As much as Marco was somewhat right from425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6B2zkl5JK
Leo’s perspective, he did his best to try and not take it to heart. For some425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRYPZ54OCs
reason, he couldn’t stand the way Marco looked at her, and it bothered him a425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUd0nruRF6
little. He started to wonder if Marco really liked Angel.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbVF76NApk

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM9wFlkYIH

Eric felt like taking Angel by the hand and dragging her away from Marco. He425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGntFKjN5Qm
shifted uncomfortably in his chair, and he thought of bringing something up to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80klnNhHNw
ease the tension that he felt, but nothing came to mind.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMtOkojXo8

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqgslDSozG

Carly couldn’t help but stare at Angel. What Marco said resonated with her, and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IKawvnlmX
as she stared at her sister, she could see it clearly. She always felt there425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvsxB9vX2i
was something about Angel that she couldn’t put her finger on, and it seems425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOl2Ardnny
Marco hit the nail right on the head. Carly has not always looked up at her425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0qin9PTBY
sister because she was older, but she always carried with her a certain essence425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL6Wgxk5M7
that Carly’s been following blindly for years. She knew she could never be like425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ0CrNx7rh
Angel, but that essence always showed brightly, and Carly always admired Angel425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOBzK3DVzm
for it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLlbhqIWOQ

“I’ll go get some,” said Leo, grateful for Oliver finishing the nachos. He425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqgfLqTAYO
really needed to take a breather.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgm20eMuEI

Leo picked up the empty bowl and started to make his way to the bar counter.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa9hoEv3Ha
Oliver started to say something to keep everyone busy. When Leo was just a few425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbQyy7cNHe
feet away from the bar, it was then that Angel jerked upright in her seat as425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLn07aYLfJJ
though she had woken up from a bad dream.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgFgSq5uQ0

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7iXz4jUe2
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPLZP16wgz
“I’m good, thanks,” Angel replied, assuring Eric with a smile. She turned to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡninLfFpF2f
Leo, who was heading to the counter. Kim was obviously on the other side, so425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzT1V7KN0x
Leo wouldn’t see them. She was worrying over nothing.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOk8EOsi5Q

Miranda quickly turned back in her seat to face the beer and wine bottles on425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv4JqJAQfk
the shelf behind the bar counter as she saw Leo approach. She swallowed as she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoCMmLMatz
felt her hands start to shake. A debate arose in her head. Should she say425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMspYBgzpM
something to him when he comes over? Why should she? It’s not like he can425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUubAE5Hh9
remember that they met at the candy store. I am just being silly, she said to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTcl81hOXY
herself.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRTaAWyiKm

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRyDKcal8V
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznj98rDx0t
Leo finally reached the counter, and he happened to stand next to Miranda. When425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvC3DsMdoZ
Miranda saw him through the corner of her eye, she felt frightened like a mouse425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeBCuUlN57
that scurries away when it sees the enemy. However, she tried to sit still in425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYRJYBzZw8
her seat so as not to draw any attention to herself. She looked down at the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90anHKDrIT
glass in front of her and slowly took it. She tried to control the trembling in425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hykKI9GL7
her hand and hoped that she wouldn’t spill the drink over or that Leo wouldn’t425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKtXQD0TEc
notice her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WtH3VR2n8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlRF5Ta84C
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eusrK5JU8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkgAeuGzFA
Leo ordered another plate of nachos, and his eyes diverted to the side. His425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCSgzJPT0q
eyes fell on the woman beside him. He had a funny feeling that she looked425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVydRSAa7ZC
familiar, but he didn’t know if he should ask. Still, it was better to mind his425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GjqTgV9nW
own business.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3DMjMUnc8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYFifFKiTs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3p15IXGs0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UtxDiCACt
Miranda felt his eyes on her, and automatically, her head turned to the side to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABosM00bs7
look at Leo. After realizing what she had done, her eyes went wide with425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBSSJttqyz
surprise.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuUq67O2qv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfMzabeGC0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvfAnrJOTw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNvNBR9kYx

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwHvmisEZx
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGF935GfkHw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF19bjkywq
“Ah, yes,” said Miranda. Her surprised look seemed to have worked in her favor.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlml0l3jxdy
“At the candy store.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mSSwUtdKk
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClwlbZPo23
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjLq6hPYZv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PBJM87hox
“Oh, yeah, right,” said Leo as he gave a nod of his head. “I remember. You425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwovel0oWJ
bumped into that moving shelf.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8UlbFB2vE

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxb1XyonvC8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2dwwt66Cy
“That was embarrassing,” said Miranda as she laughed. “I was in a rush.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRmxswqMyu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZII3eHXWBG
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4WiEHbc1Q
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3c4gKBcAC
Leo gave her a friendly smile and nodded his head, showing that he understood.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4GnOp3bGm
His gesture made Miranda almost want to shoot out of her stool like a rocket.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH379awZofe
Her heart fluttered, and she wanted to hold on to that beautiful feeling425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwB2hItPnSP

The bartender came back with the plate refilled with nachos and cheese. Leo425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQsikN8R8h
took it and thanked the bartender. He turned to Miranda, and she knew that425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTpjXBPdTc
their conversation ended here.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeSJs0Zhx5

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiN1iJo3G4T
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiazB3uDXG
“Thanks,” said Miranda. She didn’t know what to say next as Leo took his leave.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx9baltsEo
The thought of being just a stranger to him didn’t sit well with Miranda. She425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0aCKySAZX
wanted to be close to him. How will she be able to do that?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT92D5okS4r
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2Wo6GWtbE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNHUdA2V9g
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlmqeJDzd5
Her eyes fell to the table Leo was heading to, and she saw Carly talking with425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhxxeX0mSS
so much glee. She didn’t seem to have a care in the world, and it hurt Miranda425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZpqSBmRgF
that she should be the one close to Leo and not her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIiojgn2vq
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqi1YqKaQ4
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m8ZzzoI8x

Carly turned her eyes to Leo, who was approaching the table, and she couldn’t425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJaMW0h7F0
help but smile at him. Miranda was smart enough to turn her head so that Carly425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BGBAFALxU
wouldn’t see her. Miranda knew her time was up, and she was guessing that she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBAj0TN9rS
might have overstayed at the bar. It was time to go back upstairs. She thought425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnJYkN4CUX
of looking back at Leo, but it wasn’t worth the risk. It was best for her to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7BTkP7pf8
leave, but after she finished her martini.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPsoB2s0vR

A few seconds before that, Trina came back to the table with two bottles of425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnqRRumQfy
cider. She sat herself down and placed one bottle in front of Kim.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDsYKnKbEe

“Sounds like a good idea,” said Trina. “Even if we were to see him walking out,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgfZOjnJJv
it would be impossible for us to see where he would go.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXStWjk2ura

As the two women stood at the table, Trina stopped Kim by placing her hand on425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfkhwonOYO
Kim’s shoulder.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oZRTJtVtN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0BH5twteo
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVmFFK45dM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeWK45qQo3
“I know you’re tired of me saying this,” said Trina, “but doing this is a bad425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLtkY1tvgO
idea. We should get out while we can.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhKjx5M0dy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEvtgSmQ5i
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZljup77Xng
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkaLIANWtH
Kim scoffed. “I gave you my word earlier, didn’t I? There is no need to repeat425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjxAFmBe9b
the conversation. Let’s go.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt4nDQTlbg

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tnT33nTtl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrK4dxbUkm
Trina’s hand fell away from Kim’s shoulder as Kim started to make her way to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfEH5PFin3
the other side of the bar. Trina followed her, and coming back the way they425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSTQb7joGw
came, they stopped at the counter. From the angle at which they stood, they425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdJtESkcup
were able to see Leo’s table.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS2qW6AMtQ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmF3C4HnvwS
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwLGlYx2nL
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW16ccxgKut
The two of them sat on the stools, facing each other. Trina had her back facing425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv9VrExtFp
Leo’s table, shielding Kim from plain sight if the worst happened.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfGlT7lPeB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ2jlMSp9G
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13ogNFeBuy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvutA7Iq5q
“I can’t see so much, so you’ll be telling me what’s going on,” said Trina.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxn7D9WP2r
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw05bxiDJq3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9tSatDmTY
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAedhaTX3wK
“You’re overthinking things,” said Kim. “You can take a peek and still won’t be425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV5U2eQT1z
seen. Oh, look, Leo is coming over.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo89RL0pjWL
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFJQuzK0p0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsMnbzCQfu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPdN7MW2i1
Trina turned her head slightly to see Leo approach the other side of the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoEIwqsCQk
counter. He wasn’t looking in their direction, so they were at ease as they425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdJt8GYAKX
looked on. They saw him ask the bar tender for another refill of nachos. He425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrhOcYBKbR
soon looked at the woman beside him, and Kim held Trina’s hand on the bar425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvpnSzFVeM
counter in anticipation.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8HhM7EqX0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDppha6OmbW
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacUVlx3Fjp
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyNUX9CLmX
“Could it be her?” Kim asked, almost squeezing Trina’s hand.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwNeum0agj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB2QzGtZgp
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI3MeIMI2g
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6cxsnNN9I
Trina looked at the woman beside Leo as she turned to look at him. She shook425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoUirH8MlS
her head. “I don’t think so,” said Trina.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1haLnVHcb
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh998861Yt
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZT4Cr4Zn6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1SYUJKpsS
They watched as Leo talked with the woman briefly, and as soon as he took the bowl425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQAYAziiCu
of nachos, he addressed the woman and went back to his table. Trina shook her425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee6UANl5Zf
head.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBKm7Nn3qA
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn24kPM9eqk
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCs7jQy4WQ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyN0t4T7pR
“She’s not the one,” said Trina. “They looked like they knew each other, but425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk8Aj1V10K
not at that intimate level.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJ4wkGu72V
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO56Gi8oNNc
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKLtxo3UNp
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsR4Tmf2uJq
“Are you sure?” Kim asked. “Because he was smiling at her.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfXIE6Qoli
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVl6f2HignR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVvzcmMoLw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX99zFGkdW2
Trina rolled her eyes before turning them at her friend. “Does every smile he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DL0kYw7JV
gives everyone mean that he is flirting with them?” she asked. “He looks like425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4zCvKV4H7
he was being friendly to me.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjwjXSSzH8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbdUU0S2gD
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62v7xmIhJ3

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24aUvxurNt
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkh4BIhHrA
Trina raised an eyebrow at her. Kim knew she was taking things a little far and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jT59crlmA
looked the other way, taking a sip from her bottle and feeling embarrassed.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL12vwoiSm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqhhgahubZ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu1Yt57XEn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxlEkpEtWq
Angel stared at her empty glass of soda, concluding that she needed to refill.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JfSl3NnIu
She excused herself from the table and started to make her way to the bar425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsmHLB0mX7
counter.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oIbcI6CWm

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hdDKWIplv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZRPioFoXd
Miranda finished her martini in one huge gulp. She placed the glass on the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT2tPBnUqr
counter, leaving the bill under the glass. After she stepped down from her425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW3SelAe7o
stool, she turned around and came shoulder to shoulder with someone.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjST3fbbJm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mHA6oOzTc
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiAe9hN6aB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fSoptxQhQ
“Oh, sorry about that,” said a beautiful woman in a stunning red velvet dress.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z0TNZN3Pc
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fytlqve7N
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHeRh5Rwu1
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qu2nLYjIW
Miranda almost panicked, for she thought the person she had bumped into was425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5ulW2b3JR
someone familiar. However, looking closely, she realized that it was Angel,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTBBXekUC1
Carly’s older sister. Miranda knew Angel didn’t know about her, but Miranda425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hz9F8WO7n
knew who she was. In the past, when she and Carly used to work together, Carly425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc6pcVBR7S
had shown Angel’s pictures to her a few times. Miranda acknowledged that the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKX0iYDHrb
sisters had looks that could kill, but there was something about Angel’s beauty425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8EtJ14hbT
that was different from Carly’s.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuyXso5LCj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8G002Kfja9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNk60nzZx7
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDjp5KSI6I
“Oh, it’s nothing,” said Miranda.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzOzodYXhN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRLFJxw22u
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DsK7YfbNf
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7c5LBQzqHS
Angel smiled at her before turning her attention to the bartender. Miranda425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbACLeEvfOQ
turned around to head out of the bar when she froze in her tracks. She felt425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn2Tnj1Arc
caught in a trap as she looked ahead. This is bad.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijWmonsH4B
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJSaycM3tE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP3ohDchcI
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7qqGXuWQq
Carly’s eyes fell on Miranda as she looked over to the bar to check on her425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpr4ZoNNJXf
sister. Miranda happened to be right in her line of vision. Carly’s eyes425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gSNCR5YOs
widened with fear as thoughts started to run through her head. What was Miranda425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpryEGKrJ6
doing here?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzajncLsDOw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45K982AkMn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vnnviCCbs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RnpABYRWC
Angel thanked the bartender after refilling her glass, and when she turned425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jWpyJiSze
around, the woman whom she bumped into stood still like a statue. Angel read425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbODdjjqopV
her body language, and she realized that the person seemed to be in some kind425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a4inuI83y
of shock. She noticed the woman looking towards the table where her sister and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGNMME38yH
the others were. Moreover, she saw Carly look at the woman with the same425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1eDwQNF8G
surprised look.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xMEGAhS2Y
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdfjSiyIA3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VNJONUZs3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFngAsFd64J
Angel raised an eyebrow. She was just about to touch the woman’s shoulder to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarArw3Npf7
get her attention, but she thought better of it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj5nZOf0rl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatYMHiN2oF
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdjesJ2Dg3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjT76uobzu
“Hey, are you okay?” Angel asked.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVDTcUMyEZ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0oNNCvGiN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNQRVJjMFB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkNu04kdpo
Miranda jolted back to reality and turned to look at Angel. She nervously425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV4sfBwlJV
chuckled. “Uh, yes, I’m fine, thanks,” said Miranda. “I thought I saw someone I425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLRHor0s2O
knew, but I was mistaken. I should go now.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrcULeUq2g
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HCuiBHpsv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaoOlBv7Xh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeXUDqCOmC
Before Angel could say anything, Miranda quickly made her way out of the bar.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsPIO9DPs6
Those who were wondering what took Angel so long turned to the bar counter and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmdAOltPqi
saw the woman quickly walk away from Angel. Angel looked at the young woman,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5aGh2buRM
and she turned her attention back to the table, specifically on Carly. Carly425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7fGLHia4l
didn’t turn her head right away as she looked at her sister. She didn’t want to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUQkvkjjaU
look like she knew Miranda, and it was best to act natural. Angel went back to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUMhK8omie
the table.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtwNgJyuCg
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7drFh3VSK8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHINpuK6U3z
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSVktvvyZd
“What was that about?” Eric asked.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEdT2L9I02
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEpxEGYGv0
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSPOFtntIj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuufZJif4Su
“Oh, she thought she recognized someone, but she was mistaken,” said Angel as425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaORDGA9ua6
she sat back down on her seat, placing her glass on the table.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KfuPVbDgN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcOv0FKMeR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ290fGrJBeL
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9vse2COWv
“She must have meant me,” said Leo. Carly looked at him, surprised at his425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR4mg6vbzn
statement. “Remember the time we went to that candy store a few days ago?” He425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPPIBMBnRe
looked at Eric. “She was the one who bumped into that moving shelf.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp6LvtLMD9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjCTDea7ZY
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgQClKXUnl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX24nHPiS4
“Oh, I see,” said Angel. “But she said she didn’t recognize anyone.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIc9D9SIxKi
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFfl0gOxQA
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdokAV02Mrh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLfuIjOSx1
“Obviously she was nervous because of Leo again,” said Eric. “I bet the reason425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuweDU8Btm
she bumped into that shelf was because of your scary looks.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ46epaJoOB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX29haXeEM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWe9DXn3Iyl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmXxcHELMu
Angel shook her head. “Not this again,” she said.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWHXmQmCDM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL11PbuYpbM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWlR3JqvTO
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjs7XnrfyO
“Mind you,” Leo started to say, “when I went over to the bar, I actually talked425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBft1MwCfo7
to her. She didn’t seem nervous to me.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDyaDvZ0cb

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7b0GEDA3sE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZz6mF3M6wL
“She obviously fell for your good looks, not the scary one as Eric had put it,”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLyo5Ejcoj
said Marco.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75edJpQeNx

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzoX4fYsLF
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEf3NPX9f5
“You really are a bully, Eric,” said Oliver. “It’s not Leo’s fault that he is425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZeFSCY6jM
more handsome than you.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC7K1SmRmd
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxcm9T2NF9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbLFkjZB9w
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPkvKl4dex
Marcos and Angel laughed at Eric. Eric, on the other hand, felt like hitting425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqTqhW9HGt
his brother on the head. Carly had been silent the whole time as thoughts ran425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ596h4U2sqh
through her head. Miranda actually had a talk with Leo, and that scared her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqWdtJD15m
Could she have told Leo that she was also there at his bachelor party?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uASTR9u0k
Moreover, they met days ago at the candy store, and she finds herself here at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucTrhKISyb
the hotel. Why did Carly feel like she was suddenly in jeopardy?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kpJt5wXFs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmelhBhr85f
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIhMI5c7r7
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqmJOKd9S4
Angel wiped away the tears from her eyes, and she soon looked at Carly, who425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7zmIX3l53
looked lost in thought. She couldn’t help but wonder what her sister was425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTP7weyl2G
thinking about.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCb4IM4TaW

“You, Oliver, have really cracked me up today,” said Marco as he continued to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMmHlGWWAa
laugh. “I can’t wait for us to hang out like this again.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ezpEOJ6KB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz2X3wATqw
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mKZxLKiCp

brother’s face.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3KJX9wW41
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42eeSvZi6y
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTRm1zOJxN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXPtIq6hb6
“Yeah, Oliver has really cracked me up too,” said Angel as she turned to smile425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPfy0pirdi
at Oliver.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwx9ZpwTvW

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWrLA6apLr

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchccRPlgt9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJo53WTIR1v
“Don’t you think it’s also getting late?” Angel asked the others. “We better be425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshlArpxGNM
heading out too.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFfwOelCZ6
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPs7lIiayR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdpV53i7S1
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHJ661iSAJ
Leo gave Angel a look. He still didn’t get the chance to be alone with Carly.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu31XngPJEA
When Marco said he was leaving, he thought he had the opportunity. He turned to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqE8IdZsib
look at Carly beside him, and she seemed to look lost in her own world.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTenSTUZ0PM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTy7wqBm08
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfZ1fJtNce

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYYfZvOlSy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2K9HB7weB
“Uh, wait a minute,” said Leo. “Some of us would like to spend a little time425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjx82sq5nV0
here.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3i1bFGxDR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWl89yFPLI
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd3XeGk79h
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ6PGzh5Gf
Angel threw Leo a look, knowing what he was playing at. She wanted to leave425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ0vU4UYML
because the possibility of Leo seeing Kim and Trina was high, and she didn’t425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zZ2AQ6wbT
want to risk it. Moreover, if Kim does see Leo spending his time alone with425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXsYQl6zBk
Carly, she will realize without a doubt that Carly is Leo’s lover. If only she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyxkTpvg0n
could tell Leo without making him so upset, she thought to herself.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhadAFyAw6x
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQT5KDzDW5
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimQRneMtBP
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsEjVKrHuJ
“Leo’s right,” said Eric, looking over at Leo. “I would like to stay here for a425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7JkWMsXEC
little longer.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMMsC0mdLe
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT9eImu8am
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoayTL997F
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFC0eUsBOZ
Angel sighed, but not the kind that anyone would notice. It looks like she lost425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThbq74N6j2
this one. She just has to find a way to work around it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkeBeSy2yn

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VEXNzAiuv
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdqQBsSEHA
“Well, then I’ll leave you to enjoy yourselves,” said Marco as he stood up from425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnnZEeNT54
his seat. “Before I forget,” he said as he turned to Angel. “I would love to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uLM9dsnlD
get your number, Angel.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KbN9Jvhxq
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWaMGL9aCn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4d5zFBPzT
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eUK9zBMEX
Angel almost forgot about that, and she blushed immediately when Marco asked her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW9Nx0hjZf
She watched him pull out his phone. He turned his eyes on her, giving her his425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CM4tgWKiQ
full attention. Angel hesitated for a bit before giving out her number, and he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8oTSsWNtE
typed it down on his phone. Eric and Leo looked on, wondering why Marco looked425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ396AbfAdwY
so eager to get her number. Carly wasn’t paying much attention, so she couldn’t425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSu7tSUtWe

difficult.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vSZu6skX5

Marco wished everyone a good night, and everyone responded back. Even Carly,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCBHeJJnVL
who looked absent-minded, said goodnight. Before leaving, Marco gave Angel a425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyAusKn6ok
wink, telling her to expect a message from him anytime soon. Angel only smiled,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht02oiIZC8
feeling embarrassed that he said that in front of everyone.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFrmoKUZ6d

much at all for a while.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIaLuS1wq8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6ifUlFs3g

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTUmNZXosx
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdV8JAtjeZ
Everyone turned to look at Carly. She tried to hide it with a smile, telling425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStXEVWllhr
Leo that she was alright. Angel couldn’t point out why her sister looked low,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgiexQukB5
but she knew she could use this to her advantage.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9BJgIbGNT

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ6ws5oBbg
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYinigoKjrU
Carly looked at Angel, and a small smile appeared on her face. She definitely425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3GDN9qkkK
needed to leave. The fact that Miranda was here messed with her head a lot, and425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxm3aICuNEI
she felt like being as far away from the hotel as possible. Considering that,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAiQ9vptfN
Miranda might still be around.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyg8imjVOo
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wDB46uT5R
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Tuz5BMOFh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfJR8tvHaF
“Angel is right,” said Carly. “I’m feeling rather overwhelmed. We’ve had a long425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTwaAjVy1L
day, and I didn’t get enough rest.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuSL0dbeOE

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYZ8xhq9La
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uQScr2YqY
Leo looked a little disappointed, but now that he saw Carly more clearly, she425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44LlhT4uO7
didn’t look too well at all. It looks like his plans for tonight might as well425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCN3mwTtP6
go down the drain. If Carly was feeling too tired, it was understandable that425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehoYSj473K
she wasn’t going to enjoy his company alone with him either.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVICTn2a3ab

Trina and Kim, who still sat observing Leo, noticed Eric stand up from his425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29MNDobYyz
seat. The others were still at the table, and it was only a moment later that425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGsVu26we4
they started to stand up.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoTR6i7KpM

Angel and Oliver started to make their way to the entrance of the bar when425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJepV8LFou
Angel, through the corner of her eye, saw Kim and Trina. This was bad. From425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuNYXQesQJ
where she stood, she feared Leo might also notice them. She slowed her pace425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Vat7f1AFV
with Oliver and waited for Carly and Leo to catch up. If she was lucky, Leo425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZBjgmDUlA
might pass by without noticing Kim and Trina, but one can never be too sure.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bhI4SDur4
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZGOYLfyaa
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtKy6UQ6GH
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdh3bFcH8C
Carly made her way to Angel and Oliver, with Leo following slowly behind her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ687MYYFmbH
Without much thought, his eyes found their way to the bar counter, and he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIvJjk90Zn
noticed someone familiar at the other end. Only when the person turned in his425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHLnhQouLe
direction and their eyes fell on him did he realize who it was.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0reQwcNflH
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmBVWLKVFU
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTje4Lpgqn
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEc7o25eFX
“Oh, my gosh,” said Kim as she held Trina’s shoulder in a tight grip. “He’s425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzFod1Pn57
seen us.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQpMB4t1Vj

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4T7jGcbDz
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvPH5y67Ke
Trina choked on her own words that she couldn’t speak as he saw Leo staring425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutjZq0KAhO
back. His eyes slowly started to flame with anger. Or was it fury?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1fZ3Rxp1s
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXbXKfJGEr
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrebhIS5sKl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCieB5bhyM
“Trina, we better go,” said Kim.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwA7fVf3oR
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPotjpqNnS
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7ySRTINV1
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX6bx8NS5u
Leo couldn’t believe Trina and Kim were there by the counter, staring back at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIKWHO93Tl
him. Did they happen to be here by coincidence, or did were they here because425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIopfWwg0I
of him? He noticed how scared they looked at him, as if they had been caught425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyUA5Mqk7B
doing something wrong. That confirmed that they were following him. He decided425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDexmVZzf5i
he was going to give them a piece of his mind.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZZ8ymqKxN
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xxjDtcqus
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5b4DLXv2r
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgXkcocc0k
Just as he was about to make his way over to them, a gentle touch fell on his425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbumMm2uVni
shoulder, stopping him from proceeding further. He looked to the side, and he425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhpxzeI5gq
found Angel standing right beside him, her hand on his shoulder. She looked at425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtFB60EtAO
him with her soft brown eyes; they were stern yet so peaceful. There was425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKiM9K86Au
something about her look and her presence beside him that made him slowly start425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHAQ47SfI6
to feel the anger in him dissipate like smoke.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd638QCus1l
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrnaMTTew5
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJgXgMGXhu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fH4qerpFL
She shook her head. “Not here,” she said to him in her normal tone of voice.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvrLGrnV1n
“Now is not the time to make a scene.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXchoV70UBF
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0lHDnd7eC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4PhAaBULj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43a6xFZ5Zj
Leo sighed, and he felt his muscles slowly start to relax. Angel was right; now425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdij7sew2Oh
wasn’t the time to throw a tantrum. He looked back at Kim, who continued to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQvVxmOy9Y
look at him, still with a scared look on her face.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg38Aziufb
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJHWPdNqfS
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkV2WeWeGhE
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjNNTmGu9P
"Fine," he said to Angel as he looked at her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiFzWwhpOH
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡounuTzLBLu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwIWFapveM
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvI9dWc1tXx
Angel gave a smile of relief. She turned to look at Trina and Kim, giving them425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZtRQhrhO7
a nod of her head. The two best friends looked relieved, but they knew that425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOWGLP3TaF
this wasn’t over.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9IpdpLVQq
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqj65JKCZl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0iHZ0xzCy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2cRDtRFQ1
Leo turned around to head out of the bar. Fortunately, Oliver and Carly were425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh56TFtPW83
way ahead of him, so they didn't see his silent altercation with Kim and Trina.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIACzUA9fH
He walked out of the bar with Angel following closely behind him.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO6okGcS1r
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTxIxnlYqy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkx8UzdHPb
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctgjsPYxzv
"Thanks for that back there," Leo said to her.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6pwJIUAH8
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicrl6ccbEi
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12m8uwCxDk
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCADlDkuIGr
"Well, getting yourself angry wasn't going to do you or me any425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazc7ffwllU
favors," said Angel.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhce23ktqB
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXxxUfFKF9
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1RTUwqMbu
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKomEfnJvT
Leo turned to look at her through the corner of his eye. "How long have425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI49DHk1Rm9
they been there?"425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlK3cBPWRy
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QowihJJR2
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1yjrYEi94
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gIg6uALZV
Angel found no point in lying to him. "I noticed them during our dinner. I425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLh7QO3ibt
didn't want to tell you in front of our guests."425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPalQtHmBDm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxM2mFy0Uh
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrM1wRgKRs
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tSwK0X1IY
Leo scoffed. "It's obvious that they were following me. I guess that’s the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW01XXLJjK
reason why you didn’t want me to be alone with Carly."425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlQEJSsDgK
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsuHZDRh6w
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAd1krTzPC
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR5e0LAhBD
"I don't want them to find out about your relationship with her just yet,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6t9Y05rxl5
so you've got to be careful from now on."425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta2nNez2ef
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmCQhCwAFd
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5ceDY7En3
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIzjHJ0oy0
A smile appeared across Leo's face. The two might have their differences, but425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4yX709hRP
it was clear to see that Angel did care about his relationship with her sister.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAPw4KMaDL
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhl9eqRfLGY
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlaLjPBH9r
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKix5FJcDPb
As they continued to walk down the stone path towards the fountain where Oliver425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxYRwFa9hi
and Carly were, Leo tried to fight off the feeling of gratitude towards Angel.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8x9vn2lMHM
In the end, he decided to let the feeling settle in for one night, and one425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9eC3tGgDU
night only.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnTWELeF3n

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFYZp6Qexn

Kim sighed in relief. “I hate to say this, but we really do have Angel to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQqqvCvPd1
thank,” she said. “Though I feel Leo will confront us about it.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnQVfqToJj
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJPgHHVrYJ
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3yotplSxl
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ4St48xtR
“Yeah, but Angel talked to him, and he calmed down in an instant.” Trina leaned425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZtwAG0nMo
against the bar counter, looking for the bartender. “Leo barely listens to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRqItC2Hpy
anyone, but he somehow listened to her. It’s best to receive his wrath425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlIfzQsFbf
privately rather than in an open place where he can embarrass us. I’m going to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNaMrzRZ8h
order a cocktail and drink to thank Angel for saving our sorry lives. Do you425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyOtjwFi0Q
want one?”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o44jkmRLt

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyaM6EPG3v

Kim gave a nod to Trina, and while her friend tried to get the attention of the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVztGVfNITl
bartender, she couldn’t help but look at Leo with Angel walking beside him as425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzcYnfBWWm
they went further away from the bar. Memories of her and Leo started to425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hcinKJKpm
surface, and she couldn’t recall once when he ever listened to her when he was425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXQJNiENfy
upset. Trina was right. Leo barely listens to anyone, except this time around,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAKkzADwIS
when Angel spoke to him. Her eyes fell upon Angel, who, even in that red velvet425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wzUo25IPN
dress, walked effortlessly with elegance beside Leo. Was there something about425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyswdcDCng9
Angel that Kim wasn’t aware of?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuISf7x2B8H

Miranda quickly stepped out of the elevator and ran down the hall back to the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq59pwOoi2
room where Red Lion and Mr. Walters were. She knew her thirty minutes were up,425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8rWFk5xGk
and she had been so distracted that she didn’t notice her phone vibrate in the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFyFCWKUXq
pocket of her jeans. When she checked in the elevator, she found three missed425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXCSXWkYsh
calls from Mr. Walters, and she knew she was in for it.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C141VpBuG

As soon as she reached the suite, the door flew open before she could even425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3knbKu9rwT
knock. She thought the first person she would see was Red Lion, but to her425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxTdh3mTtX
relief, it was Walters.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqhIWltZ6i
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH25r1kWfK
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnxuxqcVvh

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1etRT2udq7

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRj1k3rySm
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ881GERWD7T
“Yeah, but count yourself lucky,” said Walters as he stood aside to let Miranda425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S0dE6BCfa
through the door. “Red Lion was going to kill you if he wanted to.”425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAg0noENAp

Miranda slowly stepped into the room, looking towards the living room area. Red425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRB4JKmLYW
Lion's comrade sat on the couch. His eyes fixed on the TV screen that showed425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcyqR9ZfXE
the football game. Two more people sat on the other couch. They wore black425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW3GuohkTA
suits, and they were of Asian descent. The two looked like bodyguards. Were425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPFFDkqIjF
they here with the host who called for this meeting? Moreover, where was Red425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi6Youdx9p
Lion?425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAOTNlf2RE

425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRWHkMpJ94
425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJo5MOr63Y
When she entered the living room area, she heard voices coming from the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7NbCZZhJt
balcony. She saw Red Lion standing by the open doors of the balcony. Someone425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXgwsEMqRK
stood in front of him, talking to him. Miranda couldn’t see who it was as the425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqCQdIpz0E
person stood on the balcony, and the doors hid him from view.425Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sxrYyITcf
