“Angel just ruined everything for me,” said Leo as he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8RS5hfIVc
came to stand next to Eric by the bar counter.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmxIhcBtRy
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEuYa9HwMw
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcnTwl0rbD
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5MZJu1pPm
“What do you mean she’s ruined everything?” Eric asked.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKyL9hJvGH

“Carly and I were supposed to run away together, but it’s like she caught on to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGNYJ5tCMT
us.” Leo shook his head. “That’s why she stayed behind with Carly. She says she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl4IGDYowJ
doesn’t want Marco to suspect anything.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVSvC74phP

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtE4F2nCvh9
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo89mcMpGW5
Eric shrugged his shoulders. “Angel does have a point,” he said. “We don’t need319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cdHsAEQkx
Marco knowing that the two of you are dating. He might tell his father, who, in319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKgc07bDB1
turn, will tell your dad. Well, you know how this vicious cycle goes.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJhbZBgvgz
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv9imtbNKn
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoxeyopExY
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGkb4FP2NV
Leo sighed. “You do have a point.” He turned to his cousin. “Go on. I know you319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJPcSrQTnT
want to say it.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRTbUnNZ7x
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOA3obF2R9
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATm5GjLg9r
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FHd4moDhU
“Say what?” Eric asked without looking at Leo.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBpREq3Dqq
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFlxDApvZp
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFv8mSxOAq
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEcK4pYoHH
Leo sighed again, deeply this time. “That she has my best interest at heart.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpid7ktWfg
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1QJEVlprW
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyY1PGb5PL
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLrXAfiyGU
Eric looked at Leo, this time with a beaming smile on his face. “Of course,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynvH6TJ06h
because that’s just how she is.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gljWBsshh
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffBoaGQOF1
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln3QU3Otnd
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvc6nLhbb1
“Can you stop smiling like that?” Leo looked irritated. Eric’s smile shone319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgE6JOoh73
brightly like the sun. Leo felt blinded as he turned to look away. “You’ve had319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡft2wDHCp4y
your fun.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFs6VREhG0

“I just want to rub it in. Before we went into the garden, I was about to tell319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9ZMszRDQS
you the same thing, but it slipped my mind. It’s good that Angel thought way319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj48auLi90
ahead and talked to Carly about it.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmj3TcHp5OS
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnMluBjls6
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySXQ8wlzs3
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPsbeb4mnD
Leo felt dumb. None of that came to mind, and he felt like slapping himself for319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9TkPxeLWp
being so stupid and careless. He hoped Marco wasn’t paying enough attention at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUvqMudQFH
first for him to realize there was anything between him and Carly. It seems he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c8wQBjTMo
has Angel to thank, but Leo was too embarrassed to think of doing so.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5coU3r7Fke

“Do they serve milkshakes here?” Leo asked, trying to rid himself of his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAPSFvyeHw
thoughts.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9tGz1F2Oe

“Yeah, I already asked,” answered Eric. “They serve non-alcoholic drinks as319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD62dA5F2j

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcHj5kbwAH
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYd6Aj1rOe
Leo left the counter and found Carly where he had left her. She was slowly319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOfTpnHJTI
looking around, taking in the view of the place. There were bright bulbs319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdDhpAeLpm
hanging over the area, and she apparently stood out with her beautiful dress.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLRmj9Xrxt
If they weren’t around so many people, he wasn’t going to hesitate to kiss and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgfwo5UsNR
caress her. He smiled at her instead and gestured with his head to her, saying319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt6TQl04ap
that they should join Angel and the others.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0cVnuyd8Q

Trina and Kim stood by the fountain as they watched Leo approach the table319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS8JKZwEVg
where Angel, Oliver, and the Asian man sat. Carly joined him soon afterwards.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJvoq3o0Mn

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmgE5t3UiZ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcqeNI3tRx
“How long do you think we’ll stay here until he decides to see his lover?”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1AWrNSPfe
Trina asked as she sat at the edge of the pool basin of the fountain.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6aTDVNHjJ

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUq2FzHQeG
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx33nBFGRKL
“Oh, no, it’s not that. They are there enjoying themselves when I’m in need of319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OAsV0YDLR
a drink right now.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGADGp5L05F
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxxNx0noed
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvuDqxGRsP
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9ojmjMWhq
Kim rolled her eyes. “We can go there and take a seat, but we should sit out of319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaopd3pu3eJ
their sight.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfEXkQ36zv

“Good idea. Let’s wait for Eric at the counter. Leo looks like he’s checking to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbjcYFUHjG
see what everyone needs because he hasn’t sat down. They will easily see us if319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyctODAqQ6L
they aren’t at their table.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczRghRE97x

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP32XPISV0E
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuAJHtzqcA
Kim agreed with Trina. They continued to watch Leo as he made his way back to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCcq26XUva
the counter.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkoSGrk7Ia

Meanwhile, Miranda, who had been watching over the balcony, followed Leo’s319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXcugGAILL
movements. She kept telling herself that she needed to get down there. If she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WMXnIe1Xh
so much as stepped out of the room, no doubt Red Lion would have her head, and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZxukEsTYF
whatever the meeting was all about, she wasn’t going to be a part of it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJTmmGkuhH
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX27uSJRgt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWshXcevzLp
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLibMbFuVqC
She huffed. If that was the consequence, she was going to have to deal with it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsbdZhE6fg
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMCSHdZnMQ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvutyvUaaQ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZYA02Zsm3
Without giving much of a second thought, Miranda turned around and went back319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXWaw0bYWs
inside the room. The football game they were watching was on a half-time break,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg5xb8yQae
and the three men were there, talking aloud about the game. She approached319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6RiAcUN9L
them, and to get their attention, she loudly cleared her throat.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhYaHKS7Se
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJWA0wqj5K
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJnRSS38Yk
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG76yvTP187
The three men all stopped talking and turned to look at Miranda. For a moment,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0ULnRXweG
she gulped as her eyes landed on the terrifying face of Red Lion, who didn’t319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuB2c5iEFj
like the fact that she had disturbed them. She had to be quick with what she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3TjzXGFO1
wanted to say, as she was running on Red Lion’s patience.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOTMe5BXwO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQpykBPItC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYSsxXA7j5
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdyf5fEem7
“I’ll be stepping out for a bit,” Miranda announced.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGcXYSuMBu
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9g4owCPqK
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UA88aH3Dp
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUzwBi8vlL
There was a brief silence in the room as the three men continued to look at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Te7ujicax
Miranda, expressionless. Red Lion moved in his seat, and Miranda feared that he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe026htplFr
would speak first.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOGkLWoOen
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRctxYH4B28
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYcTgqPsXs
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoyLWEYZDx
“I don’t think going out is the best thing to do right now,” he said. “We’re319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbGPZJmyAd
waiting on someone, aren’t we?”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOXMslxBuU

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOuTf3ESd2
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3S1pK1vLz
“Yeah, we are, but this person isn’t showing up anyway. You’ll let me know when319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3pOcKOICh
he gets here. I really need to step out.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoNZRosuKh
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJ0MEkpeGo
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GizoshAZf
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORlWgrEOvE
Red Lion continued to look at her. Walters now had a scared look on his face.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFW7b9c4Fu
He wished he could intervene, but things haven’t escalated between the two, so319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjATk8m5gR
it was hopeless to do so.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OUJiY71hB
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwPQQJR0Bl
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEqjNbZzlK
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh2VavuTMu
“Whatever,” said Red Lion as he leaned back on the couch. “You get back here in319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbBYko7Efg
thirty minutes. If our host gets here before you, you better hurry back when319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5VA40ktmb
Walters calls.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RHmQPOJDt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7paywQg5z
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDkOGY72NI
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorTq0SvG8c
Miranda felt relieved. She thought she wasn’t going to be let go so easily.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpLCYXeKJv
Moreover, the time Red Lion gave her was too little. However, she had to make319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3xMlyWVfG
use of this as much as possible, even if it meant seeing Leo down there for a319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHftn8MfQO
minute.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99199WIHTn
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHMWIBOdXj
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MBrbepugc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDW8CSMz2P
“I will,” said Miranda. She didn’t waste any time as she made her way for the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKb1ppgpvj
door.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhLLm6tFbc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXea1DjiKe5
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0MYBlTd2F
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9Kz36H5DZ
As soon as she walked out of the room, Hugo turned to Red Lion and asked, “Are319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj5UynuIsr
you sure letting her go out like that is a good idea? Our host can walk in at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs6rgSQF4R
any moment.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG8MPNMSQN

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF8r3hjr4h
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwlu8UXoK1
“True, but it’s better than her staying out on the balcony while we wait,” Red319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fLIRwOjEB
Lion answered. “If you ask me, I would step out too if it wasn’t for the football319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gFZMvz3qW
game. But I was serious about my threat, so she better be here before he does.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQDMAMRBdd
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9KzQZD8Rh
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMAQ5PITTy
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtiCSqVSgs
Walters didn’t say anything as he briefly looked at Red Lion before looking up319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSiMvNynem
at the TV. Red Lion wasn’t kidding when he said he was in a good mood, Walters319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6mN8BNWXF
thought to himself. Knowing Red Lion, he wasn’t going to let Miranda walk out319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R9ecWAbUY
of here. Something must have really put Red Lion into a good mood today, or319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxyyHRwgen
else he wouldn’t have done what he did.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMKKAcUfGb

Leo and Eric came to join the others at the table with their drinks, and Eric,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7HKd6j0ce
on the other hand, carried a plate full of nachos and cheese. Oliver was so319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvtHfOl95X
delighted to see the plate of snacks that he couldn’t wait to eat them. Angel319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrwKT5RMmh
had to warn him not to eat too much, or else he might have a bad tummy ache the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepwvKOutGc

“I wouldn’t waste my breath warning the guy,” said Eric as he sat down on the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLcFy4OIZb
empty chair next to Angel after serving her a soda. “It’s a Friday, and he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQrM5Posfd

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuTu5PGWAJ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCZTJVMPMV
Oliver, who sat on Angel’s other side, didn’t answer him as he took his mango319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9iGS4a8LV
milkshake and put the straw in his mouth. Angel, on the other hand, looked at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EFlO9PYl4
Eric and shook her head.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAxEEhJlcM

Leo placed his glass of beer and Carly’s cocktail before taking his seat in319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpsIB6oo5S
between them. He also served Marco a bottle of the cider that he wanted. Marco319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZdB5HS5xB
thanked him as Leo sat down.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBANaK0jGae

“Hey, Marco,” said Angel as she turned to look at him, looking over Oliver, who319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LXJhAq5Dd

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyaHDLfLH8
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmrF8iCGQW
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3J0DJF1b3
“Oh, yes, I’ve come here several times,” answered Marco. “I usually come here319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaGIkiu1XT
with dad on business trips. Inheriting the family business can be tiring,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATn1r6twGH
especially when they’re showing you the ropes. You just have to be there, even319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgQwAqIfpx

“Wait, does that mean I might inherit mum’s business of running the massage319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD7ZH9fQFM

Everyone at the table grew quiet as they looked at Oliver. At the same time,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5eLyP950l
they all burst into laughter.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9rWi2wi1c
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdv0AEQNei
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjfePDQTBo

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu2P7AcLAY

“I still have a whole life ahead of me,” said Oliver as he shrugged his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyi2MHEAtS6

All the grown-ups at the table looked at the young boy, somewhat surprised at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXosTizBst
his answer. They all stayed that way for a brief moment before Leo stretched319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosIO1rLT93
out his hand to get a nacho.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad3zU1MaaO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaKhV6ILBg
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0PzTlKltm
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPTjpc3ROg
“Good enough response for me,” he said. He put the nacho in his mouth319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtO7Ri72ce

“Just like Leo said, a very wise response,” said Marco as he looked at Oliver319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvd58jYu85
admirably. “Hopefully, you do inherit, and we will become business partners in319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCthbXTEUS4

Leo slowly stopped chewing as he looked at Marco. He didn’t know if answering319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOvufu0B6x
Marco would be a good idea, but he only gestured with his head to acknowledge319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWtp0H7GdT
the statement.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsS5bOtMp6

Angel was sipping on her drink when her eyes wandered away from the area in the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1THJfVFGtn
bar and to the fountain. She had a feeling Trina and Kim had been standing319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylIH1oYmPE
there for a while. When she found there were only a couple looking at the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiDhDqdbfw
fountain, she started to worry. Could they have given up and left? Kim didn’t319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarlalFoXX1
seem like the kind of person who would give up on anything, Angel thought.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl63j20vNW
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTdqWsWyMO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf2OBAT8l8
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvASTyGNQjs
She was lucky enough to see Kim and Trina approach the open bar, and she had a319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSpn5QKbha
clear view of them. Leo sat with his back facing them, but she feared Eric and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFmXCKX0Sa
Oliver would see them. Angel had to think of something to turn their eyes319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1hwZfWYZI
elsewhere. What should she do?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqvMYS1TXE

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3av1SP7eK2
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aah9V2822
She turned to Oliver, and he seemed distracted as he was eating the nachos319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxmR0RmgMi
hungrily. Turning to Eric, she found him somewhat staring at her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdakx2U3sC4

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx1EIR1qWI
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mVojaO13V
“Oh, nothing,” he said, somewhat looking a little embarrassed that he was319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRdc9jkVLh

Angel noticed Kim and Trina enter the bar area through the corner of her eye.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUUzl50xCB
She couldn’t turn to look at them. That would only get Eric to look, and he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmp75yMejF
would spot them eventually. She had to keep eye contact with him for as long as319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtuNy3oQQT

“Nah, I think it was,” said Eric. “I’m betting that you didn’t have to try on319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP1OOnzYbk

Leo felt like throwing up in his drink as he had a clear sight of Eric flirting319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qIDZO3VEG
with Angel. He wished he could tell them to get a room, but he knew better than319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiGDFn3jma
to say it when he was flirting with Carly some time ago.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMJLQDCSKm

Angel saw through the corner of her eye that Kim and Trina had entered the bar319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLBf29qSrc
area and were now looking around for a table on the other side. It was best for319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgr1axOhBjn
them to get a table where they couldn’t be seen. As soon as they were out of319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyV87MdrUx
sight, Angel couldn’t help but feel relieved. She went on ahead to pick a319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQJ9z4TYRP
nacho, dip it in cheese, and eat it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfctcJcoOxI

“If we weren’t on opposite sides, I would thank Angel for distracting him. I319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEtkbaHhpT

Kim didn’t argue there. She somewhat agreed with Trina. She looked toward the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxfoDvtLqk
bar. Luckily enough, it was circular in shape with a bar shelve in the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BDTU96Tfq
circumference, blocking the view of the other side. Therefore, she could see319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xewx4cNnQ
neither them nor them doing the same. Moreover, she could easily go over to the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5leKdNzgM
counter for a drink.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnghX2Ov8ON

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs00KI3KRR
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxoC1IUuqP
“We should really think things through, Kim,” said Trina as she looked over at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFRW28yl5m
the bar, realizing that the others were out of sight. “Is staying here really319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRHkri25yn
worth it? I doubt if he is going to meet his lover with the company that he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzKuUE4Zzz

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiDrcvkHuh
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdZER24Ei6

“I’m not leaving without you,” said Trina. “And besides, when we came in here,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDPldsF17d
I saw Eric flirting with Angel. I wonder if he really does like her.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVJT0Zci7P

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw50ffiEjq

A sudden laugh came out of Kim’s mouth. Tears almost filled her eyes. “You’re319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR3Ru5Q5He

“Well, I’m not like you,” said Trina as she folded her arms. “You’re making319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZnWnxH4xc

Trina raised an eyebrow. “Will you? I know you, Kim. Leo has been the only man319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkIk8fntvF
you’ve been in love with since we were kids, and him breaking up with you and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENE93EywpF
calling off the wedding was a heavy toll. I don’t think you’ll be able to let319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EXb1X3Fqz

Trina swallowed, thinking over her words before she spoke them out. “All I’m319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66K7LfkqJG
saying is that it’s time to let Leo go. Thinking about him and his new lover319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznj7Srgvi9
isn’t going to do you any good.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUFLCkGcpG

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPrdCfrCEu
Kim sighed. She stretched out her hand over the table and beckoned to Trina to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi3QXpjzFm
give her hers. Trina did likewise, and Kim held her friend’s hand tightly.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A55SIRUvM

Trina quickly stood up and left the table. Kim looked on at her best friend and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC32vG1QpN
knew she had pissed her off. She wished she could assure Trina that she was319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuDQNcvNYt

Miranda rushed out of the elevator and ran into the garden like a mad woman.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP4PJeREm0
Along the way, she pushed people aside. To some, she apologized, but to others,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55CxfOdrIt
she didn’t even give them a second thought.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXugPnPjz4P
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Tyt2TFFO9
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmEadbiOE0
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa12yfLHSF
There was only one way to the garden, and that was through the western wing319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrqMUUuGKj
since the doors to the east wing weren’t open, said a woman she had met in the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubQrT3WCoe
elevator who was going downstairs and who had lived in the hotel for a long319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JjJkfWRxV
time. Thankful for the information, Miranda had to rush. She only had a few319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13grtEnVLy

She had just bypassed the fountain, heading towards the open bar, but then she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEEPHjmmOL
stopped herself short. She had to see where Leo was sitting first; he might as319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uyB9qGHeF
well have Carly seated right beside him, and Carly would no doubt see her if319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjemsijypKK
she wasn’t too careful.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsRTqmGFWj
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaAC93M6uP
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiCWFnOadj

She didn’t have to look any further, as she saw Leo at the table with Carly319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfJVe4irIc
beside him along with other people. Leo was holding the floor for the time319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK5YrD0Kxp
being, and Miranda noticed how everyone laughed at what he said. Carly, who sat319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFN4mEa5M8
next to him, looked admirably at him. Miranda huffed. If only she could figure319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr0lScOBJ3

Miranda walked over to the counter and sat on the stool. Immediately, the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR3QnA8btS
bartender attended to her, and she ordered a martini. The bartender went on319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5q4UzVBIt
ahead to make her drink as Miranda slightly turned around on her chair to look319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVYT5froGI
at the table behind her. She had a clear view of Leo, and a smile came across319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx35SCRsZdf

He and I had a competition to see who could drink more tequila. He passed out319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwwD529Zwo

Marco, Leo, and Eric now turned their eyes on Angel with curious looks. Her319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU4ddTwlsU
cheeks flushed in embarrassment as she looked down at the table. She pressed319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa94je5huu
her lips together before looking at everyone, including Oliver.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yvnFPI2jE

The adults turned to look at Oliver, surprised. Oliver also looked back at them319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkYAtRVa7n
as though he were judging them for giving him such a look.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qVpQ26kOG

Angel and Carly burst into laughter. Marco and Leo chuckled, while Eric looked319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp3Zzxtddt

“Well, no, I’m being really genuine here. Angel carries a certain level of319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9DRNKmm0m
elegance that I can describe as classy. I don’t know, but there’s much more to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U3byCM4Ii

Everyone was silent except for Oliver, who loudly sucked at his smoothie319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1lwZfxVHd
through the straw. Angel found herself looking at Marco with her cheeks feeling319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnRtBAQO9X
like hot coals slapped across her face. Marco turned from Leo to Angel, and the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFVoJkGX7W
corner of his lips rose to a smile. This time, his smile was gentle and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjXdIld2yD

Leo swallowed, as he didn’t know how to respond to Marco’s statement. He saw319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlHlPoxFAB
Marco shift his attention to Angel. As much as Marco was somewhat right from319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYvZ5NcrMK
Leo’s perspective, he did his best to try and not take it to heart. For some319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugWYIPYaVZ
reason, he couldn’t stand the way Marco looked at her, and it bothered him a319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWZUCgzBRf
little. He started to wonder if Marco really liked Angel.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXXz7Do2A9

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCYekLwOf8

Eric felt like taking Angel by the hand and dragging her away from Marco. He319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVl0vVG30w
shifted uncomfortably in his chair, and he thought of bringing something up to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRgb5VKJUv

Carly couldn’t help but stare at Angel. What Marco said resonated with her, and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5SyD9tovq
as she stared at her sister, she could see it clearly. She always felt there319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgAs9Ht2cH
was something about Angel that she couldn’t put her finger on, and it seems319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9seVAuAJJm
Marco hit the nail right on the head. Carly has not always looked up at her319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRH2NhLADm
sister because she was older, but she always carried with her a certain essence319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeyzvhufbp
that Carly’s been following blindly for years. She knew she could never be like319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCORqmiQNMo
Angel, but that essence always showed brightly, and Carly always admired Angel319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd31WwNR563

Leo picked up the empty bowl and started to make his way to the bar counter.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVEcikqTCy
Oliver started to say something to keep everyone busy. When Leo was just a few319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsGzp07V8D
feet away from the bar, it was then that Angel jerked upright in her seat as319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0kOzyi4OT
though she had woken up from a bad dream.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UOyrtaT60

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMj1OMrnip
“I’m good, thanks,” Angel replied, assuring Eric with a smile. She turned to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBjkkyPvoL
Leo, who was heading to the counter. Kim was obviously on the other side, so319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxSqqPODZM
Leo wouldn’t see them. She was worrying over nothing.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS2YRpiSlT

Miranda quickly turned back in her seat to face the beer and wine bottles on319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH8QHZZ4zP
the shelf behind the bar counter as she saw Leo approach. She swallowed as she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF0qgH2HsI
felt her hands start to shake. A debate arose in her head. Should she say319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfY282K9n4
something to him when he comes over? Why should she? It’s not like he can319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVjdbU7FAT
remember that they met at the candy store. I am just being silly, she said to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmpcYL153f
herself.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8ZgACeqSw

Leo finally reached the counter, and he happened to stand next to Miranda. When319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEa3Vuczo5
Miranda saw him through the corner of her eye, she felt frightened like a mouse319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWEWU5ky91
that scurries away when it sees the enemy. However, she tried to sit still in319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWeYEWDmfc
her seat so as not to draw any attention to herself. She looked down at the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOppFjUrBG
glass in front of her and slowly took it. She tried to control the trembling in319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38vQLtgPzm
her hand and hoped that she wouldn’t spill the drink over or that Leo wouldn’t319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHb8Do0jjTj
notice her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhrmgJh4n6

Leo ordered another plate of nachos, and his eyes diverted to the side. His319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBJdCzPSWB
eyes fell on the woman beside him. He had a funny feeling that she looked319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZdEYtk1I4
familiar, but he didn’t know if he should ask. Still, it was better to mind his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf91iIewB4D

Miranda felt his eyes on her, and automatically, her head turned to the side to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75azxuiN4U
look at Leo. After realizing what she had done, her eyes went wide with319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLZ1f8B78Q
surprise.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Oc2CafQSK

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGSmaueOIe
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRomf5GJ4d0

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLMhIofkfY

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KlCUo0vPM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5lNxolUTC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rxLLVXRo8
Leo gave her a friendly smile and nodded his head, showing that he understood.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvz58GErLC
His gesture made Miranda almost want to shoot out of her stool like a rocket.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazLIMAkCHR
Her heart fluttered, and she wanted to hold on to that beautiful feeling319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0OixMM6No

The bartender came back with the plate refilled with nachos and cheese. Leo319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lOw3tmVBD
took it and thanked the bartender. He turned to Miranda, and she knew that319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCDwgd5CCI
their conversation ended here.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifb4ukXggx

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN9CppzXPk
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2P8EWPKwq
“Thanks,” said Miranda. She didn’t know what to say next as Leo took his leave.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEY5Vl99Xp
The thought of being just a stranger to him didn’t sit well with Miranda. She319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL33SJ7VuF
wanted to be close to him. How will she be able to do that?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCoDRcy3zL
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGNeczgd3W
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOtctVaEgq
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3eQu0nSTE
Her eyes fell to the table Leo was heading to, and she saw Carly talking with319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hPi2hdoUh
so much glee. She didn’t seem to have a care in the world, and it hurt Miranda319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHuBXPIrOz
that she should be the one close to Leo and not her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG8MBicI0v
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKBiNZixeg

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDHGouht19
Carly turned her eyes to Leo, who was approaching the table, and she couldn’t319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCr0UrHJLr
help but smile at him. Miranda was smart enough to turn her head so that Carly319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr540Mlvsx5
wouldn’t see her. Miranda knew her time was up, and she was guessing that she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fhimN4Uxc
might have overstayed at the bar. It was time to go back upstairs. She thought319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNdl2g094I
of looking back at Leo, but it wasn’t worth the risk. It was best for her to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDp4RHxnE11
leave, but after she finished her martini.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTTLyXIX6y

A few seconds before that, Trina came back to the table with two bottles of319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtX3TgiUko
cider. She sat herself down and placed one bottle in front of Kim.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTunNDgd9IG
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQkIlHlRSv

“Sounds like a good idea,” said Trina. “Even if we were to see him walking out,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg92SvIwZXU
it would be impossible for us to see where he would go.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c9IVvHvwV

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCBKzBqhcE
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2P05XCKR5T
As the two women stood at the table, Trina stopped Kim by placing her hand on319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCDSI7Wru1
Kim’s shoulder.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61MgsGc3gA
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKmBhBGIcc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttrDZ9OdHB
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0hWUhNs6t
“I know you’re tired of me saying this,” said Trina, “but doing this is a bad319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD912oZS9Oc
idea. We should get out while we can.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMFxJ2cV8X
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxZfN35tdv
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYlQJYNGKN
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEstMxQqaB
Kim scoffed. “I gave you my word earlier, didn’t I? There is no need to repeat319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyyMlueenY
the conversation. Let’s go.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJtfMNUZGL
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsrTShqW56
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLtTrSPEPD
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvUBJjpHkU
Trina’s hand fell away from Kim’s shoulder as Kim started to make her way to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpynwsXx0Rz
the other side of the bar. Trina followed her, and coming back the way they319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdcvXeltCN
came, they stopped at the counter. From the angle at which they stood, they319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T4PSbq48v
were able to see Leo’s table.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhXP4d3T3r
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9phtYk4SNC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hnvG5H0eO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXPTRycEUK
The two of them sat on the stools, facing each other. Trina had her back facing319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtRehrdP4e
Leo’s table, shielding Kim from plain sight if the worst happened.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT8bMnFqyb
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cbJs0f9kN
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bUwxBlb3h
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1pwsTALRL
“I can’t see so much, so you’ll be telling me what’s going on,” said Trina.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4krprJtG5m
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS92zGryK7
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPccclrz30L
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iR1ByooFE
“You’re overthinking things,” said Kim. “You can take a peek and still won’t be319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRJ4jUDJVo
seen. Oh, look, Leo is coming over.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB8oJ5sraE
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A68RVimrP
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXloiriiyn
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMZGWMVynH
Trina turned her head slightly to see Leo approach the other side of the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMvV26YmYj
counter. He wasn’t looking in their direction, so they were at ease as they319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxnIy0GnsY
looked on. They saw him ask the bar tender for another refill of nachos. He319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGFE77Bzi9
soon looked at the woman beside him, and Kim held Trina’s hand on the bar319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQwYTE5m3t
counter in anticipation.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLhPFovCzD
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh86UPOiF1
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkwxhAPewh
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaEeB9sHu0
“Could it be her?” Kim asked, almost squeezing Trina’s hand.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0ZQmC8Fvw
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPnwTmbLU3
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj62r0boLQ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpDYEQG2kI
Trina looked at the woman beside Leo as she turned to look at him. She shook319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAjd6apioi
her head. “I don’t think so,” said Trina.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7p1ON6l5P
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4EVXMrazg
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVQ9cytXTd
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbxNFDj6k2
They watched as Leo talked with the woman briefly, and as soon as he took the bowl319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvD392vQET
of nachos, he addressed the woman and went back to his table. Trina shook her319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0yNzVm1Tn
head.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOB96WAPfm
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2ceJRwgtK
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFVRHHhjHj
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZCs50gApF
“She’s not the one,” said Trina. “They looked like they knew each other, but319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGG2PYlGvx
not at that intimate level.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRm1UIsWBO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjkxGCmRXB
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFXaJNysyl
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrYRyhKfXp
“Are you sure?” Kim asked. “Because he was smiling at her.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKMVmtQfiP
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFIJOviZLZ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXIPfM3Z3X
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCreIxAsnm
Trina rolled her eyes before turning them at her friend. “Does every smile he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXwcCcNoru
gives everyone mean that he is flirting with them?” she asked. “He looks like319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGuy3FDjzi
he was being friendly to me.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXg2lF0tgx
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oJhr7Joaq
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fzGVTzfl0

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDmRnqUm3E
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPVJEhIoj6
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vsyPkKn49
Trina raised an eyebrow at her. Kim knew she was taking things a little far and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8WpPqHQyd
looked the other way, taking a sip from her bottle and feeling embarrassed.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡic8c7uO6DL
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlilNhFEgs3
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJwNEgRvEp
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6qMhJgjc0
Angel stared at her empty glass of soda, concluding that she needed to refill.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtbl9w5HIl
She excused herself from the table and started to make her way to the bar319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlBaLLZViM
counter.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg51zNTn3BI
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2ehU2Yaoa
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMqGuW8Q7y
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybNy249BUj
Miranda finished her martini in one huge gulp. She placed the glass on the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUzZUMDAUX
counter, leaving the bill under the glass. After she stepped down from her319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHENg6GXBt
stool, she turned around and came shoulder to shoulder with someone.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlmfsLqHHt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SZvNkKjEo
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBrAiWrAMF
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdaTIuUlK7
“Oh, sorry about that,” said a beautiful woman in a stunning red velvet dress.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNp5W87Ddi
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuHKw5QH7d
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg236Shwln
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoZZSREMSn
Miranda almost panicked, for she thought the person she had bumped into was319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvoOZPURsD
someone familiar. However, looking closely, she realized that it was Angel,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OhFCAkqYu
Carly’s older sister. Miranda knew Angel didn’t know about her, but Miranda319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uSystcFmB
knew who she was. In the past, when she and Carly used to work together, Carly319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZiYgoWzUF
had shown Angel’s pictures to her a few times. Miranda acknowledged that the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TlHfsXqk9
sisters had looks that could kill, but there was something about Angel’s beauty319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSrel2eLes
that was different from Carly’s.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5TLABik44
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeY1IoTHLX
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaOmdrvE0f
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx94I4dWCE
“Oh, it’s nothing,” said Miranda.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ktghlETBf
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Gm2UOykl1
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6K930QSnE
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8YIebeM6T
Angel smiled at her before turning her attention to the bartender. Miranda319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkhqCaYlXF
turned around to head out of the bar when she froze in her tracks. She felt319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpW7wRcaI6
caught in a trap as she looked ahead. This is bad.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHsa64KcUS
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wOkAhPgAT
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoypoKPni3h
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rq3nytY82
Carly’s eyes fell on Miranda as she looked over to the bar to check on her319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOHimuyToS
sister. Miranda happened to be right in her line of vision. Carly’s eyes319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelpY7dVN9q
widened with fear as thoughts started to run through her head. What was Miranda319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDR6I37L16
doing here?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgPR3qsYqI
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bZqFksnUB
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPpPvJ7oOy
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWDsMGgEDt
Angel thanked the bartender after refilling her glass, and when she turned319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zYQqb3W7U
around, the woman whom she bumped into stood still like a statue. Angel read319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSJsmUFKSJ
her body language, and she realized that the person seemed to be in some kind319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l8VFWqY8s
of shock. She noticed the woman looking towards the table where her sister and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjYQtCHCId
the others were. Moreover, she saw Carly look at the woman with the same319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh5mAthq8a
surprised look.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOmDlkrRgZ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtZGGisSv0
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuTMof2III
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yB6lrkzS0
Angel raised an eyebrow. She was just about to touch the woman’s shoulder to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1ym3HTVQc
get her attention, but she thought better of it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyymlIHP76G
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiz5aIr2yti
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgXhwCmk3K
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq1lMjwDR4
“Hey, are you okay?” Angel asked.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97ZFbycl2e
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPcDw7QbxU
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0olhDIZF6E
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92Ops927Y7
Miranda jolted back to reality and turned to look at Angel. She nervously319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkujwZc6AW6
chuckled. “Uh, yes, I’m fine, thanks,” said Miranda. “I thought I saw someone I319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ejCT6OXOx
knew, but I was mistaken. I should go now.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUu9Y4Ca5z
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3Hkj8IDLH
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEhR6I1Wme
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujWoNebdBK
Before Angel could say anything, Miranda quickly made her way out of the bar.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6K6UIeEPqL
Those who were wondering what took Angel so long turned to the bar counter and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hOd3t9mMn
saw the woman quickly walk away from Angel. Angel looked at the young woman,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX67CGKOx8
and she turned her attention back to the table, specifically on Carly. Carly319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eyC7nHL9k
didn’t turn her head right away as she looked at her sister. She didn’t want to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvClkjbNq7V
look like she knew Miranda, and it was best to act natural. Angel went back to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRDnFl4pR5
the table.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph23dRw0qD
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYZtHotoaa
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJBfq7RUZN
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNADPuGx6oF
“What was that about?” Eric asked.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO87Zz5eISX
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJnqPqRR07
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWc0bdan7r
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeg6fDZuB3
“Oh, she thought she recognized someone, but she was mistaken,” said Angel as319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOmoOz65kP
she sat back down on her seat, placing her glass on the table.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6dc6I1LJ7
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVI33z0DYX
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCFMYTLBbc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFrzH0O8wT
“She must have meant me,” said Leo. Carly looked at him, surprised at his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQszt64Po6
statement. “Remember the time we went to that candy store a few days ago?” He319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlqNxLDeER
looked at Eric. “She was the one who bumped into that moving shelf.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oW64U83qD
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDdzdSTvxM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmkKe8ZEkl
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKZAL2E294

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12Z95U6rNm
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliLyyH2ynH
“Obviously she was nervous because of Leo again,” said Eric. “I bet the reason319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYG78QTrXN
she bumped into that shelf was because of your scary looks.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFMDzokJBW
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk01NpUUjR
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmo5odL7My
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWifUd9MHS
Angel shook her head. “Not this again,” she said.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmui2bJ3Mu
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOZ3gSlAVC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOiGXoCehv
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BkSIMowsB
“Mind you,” Leo started to say, “when I went over to the bar, I actually talked319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiCju2utnG
to her. She didn’t seem nervous to me.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUx2Bz1LlU
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqHbdOmLTj
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7zRxWPtRb
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2MwZNXHws
“She obviously fell for your good looks, not the scary one as Eric had put it,”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjikrDFOf2W
said Marco.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQO5Ik3Fix

more handsome than you.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUEvxhbA8t

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGczNwePiE
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRbrCigmKG
Marcos and Angel laughed at Eric. Eric, on the other hand, felt like hitting319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6NNutOToq
his brother on the head. Carly had been silent the whole time as thoughts ran319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckAa7rchFq
through her head. Miranda actually had a talk with Leo, and that scared her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPwz8Y6yJF
Could she have told Leo that she was also there at his bachelor party?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOUJ3WS7Wm
Moreover, they met days ago at the candy store, and she finds herself here at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirscpscjHT
the hotel. Why did Carly feel like she was suddenly in jeopardy?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6BSRRXXDt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgyttOfsK8
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh6DdeU3EM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5Xax6L2sN
Angel wiped away the tears from her eyes, and she soon looked at Carly, who319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pOUe47nuQ
looked lost in thought. She couldn’t help but wonder what her sister was319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYTbBiDxwv
thinking about.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHON8BdAi6

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcdf54oj0D
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLzNPPPH0d
“Yeah, Oliver has really cracked me up too,” said Angel as she turned to smile319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VrqER93Od
at Oliver.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RuYarjLnm

heading out too.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8POCCKTV7u
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEQ5KbBdCu
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fuYIehytR
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY953PHkQNH
Leo gave Angel a look. He still didn’t get the chance to be alone with Carly.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmIqwef5d1
When Marco said he was leaving, he thought he had the opportunity. He turned to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBLXHFV9KI
look at Carly beside him, and she seemed to look lost in her own world.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVo1PzChgH

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUZz7LrpIm
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbXcBYszw0
“Uh, wait a minute,” said Leo. “Some of us would like to spend a little time319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAau0OAXwCi
here.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaBT0txegB
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBZknko29r
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqib64S0ulS
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ADPMZ8uHT
Angel threw Leo a look, knowing what he was playing at. She wanted to leave319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlGFW5qSyC
because the possibility of Leo seeing Kim and Trina was high, and she didn’t319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkP42w9Wum
want to risk it. Moreover, if Kim does see Leo spending his time alone with319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorJ0fvaQSZ
Carly, she will realize without a doubt that Carly is Leo’s lover. If only she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9dgQEmwyo
could tell Leo without making him so upset, she thought to herself.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYvXiJejQL
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXDxJC6YK6
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp9jNy83jV
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlHCxqAMFJ
“Leo’s right,” said Eric, looking over at Leo. “I would like to stay here for a319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH1LDGIT7v

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5h35IOXmn
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjGX6ww0D6
Angel sighed, but not the kind that anyone would notice. It looks like she lost319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J4oHLFUHy
this one. She just has to find a way to work around it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIONBTFnXY

“Well, then I’ll leave you to enjoy yourselves,” said Marco as he stood up from319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXZ1QBKIzw
his seat. “Before I forget,” he said as he turned to Angel. “I would love to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0kEcjISPn

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK66pcAFfT
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa724EX7yQP
Angel almost forgot about that, and she blushed immediately when Marco asked her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdFECWikpx
She watched him pull out his phone. He turned his eyes on her, giving her his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nuWvzcCY2
full attention. Angel hesitated for a bit before giving out her number, and he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGbkUAvlLP
typed it down on his phone. Eric and Leo looked on, wondering why Marco looked319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdHY1NJsnY
so eager to get her number. Carly wasn’t paying much attention, so she couldn’t319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvKcBuZRzd

“I really enjoyed my time with you,” said Marco, pocketing his phone away. “We319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBB39FDZzbW
should do this sometime soon.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjUOO0IF6N
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lPsmLKBAC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5ciHe8vDB
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfN1WHHqyI
“Sure,” said Eric, putting up a smile for Marco, which proved to be very319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSD7SzcAKY
difficult.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIviX6xC7MS

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5O2JpAE2x
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNZ8cmzAY6
Marco wished everyone a good night, and everyone responded back. Even Carly,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQX1hW7dfp
who looked absent-minded, said goodnight. Before leaving, Marco gave Angel a319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UnJ3yvRAy
wink, telling her to expect a message from him anytime soon. Angel only smiled,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWx7P3hNb3
feeling embarrassed that he said that in front of everyone.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QYpq2DJ29

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsHJvGwiZv

Leo turned to Carly, and it was then that he noticed that she hadn’t talked319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uL0rxoO4q
much at all for a while.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1aCQEGbQy
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0drYpqocy
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsVSz7RfdF
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjE2eA8A9TT

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWheonindBM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOpvZjpy0v
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoIdTtPyX4
Everyone turned to look at Carly. She tried to hide it with a smile, telling319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWrcbmGho7
Leo that she was alright. Angel couldn’t point out why her sister looked low,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1TZbVah7z
but she knew she could use this to her advantage.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCATCR0BNgD

“You look tired, Carly,” said Angel. “Maybe we should call it a night and head319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1PFvfn5TL
home.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA2cCZS9B5
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufn0bbPx3Z
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFiL5PhofX
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtM7Evcumw
Carly looked at Angel, and a small smile appeared on her face. She definitely319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORvEuPB4US
needed to leave. The fact that Miranda was here messed with her head a lot, and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNuzOnK4cl
she felt like being as far away from the hotel as possible. Considering that,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMlqvSXmJY
Miranda might still be around.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHE7uT8K0i7
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwfSqy0jBU
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtBGt9u8dg
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnn9pKNKOs
“Angel is right,” said Carly. “I’m feeling rather overwhelmed. We’ve had a long319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0Ffj1Iw4y
day, and I didn’t get enough rest.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlasYEKrzza

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVYC2kv8VC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9auYCSk8sM
Leo looked a little disappointed, but now that he saw Carly more clearly, she319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaNLuoKi03
didn’t look too well at all. It looks like his plans for tonight might as well319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylvrs0UXQr
go down the drain. If Carly was feeling too tired, it was understandable that319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDLA4VCbnA
she wasn’t going to enjoy his company alone with him either.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4glJ2O3alK

the bar area.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzmMNkylx7

Trina and Kim, who still sat observing Leo, noticed Eric stand up from his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLDihepk6C
seat. The others were still at the table, and it was only a moment later that319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZHs8nSMEa
they started to stand up.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5qkCnhxKu
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqUJ7MuGkK
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6dZNb9qIh
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgodKEWfsd

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbOMCC9oNB

319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpmsHNClkz
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10aOLAgnRZ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EcUpuWnPe
“He can’t do that with the others tagging along,” said Trina. “Let’s watch and319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBlOwj4EWA
see.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx1m3WEGtG
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoctxNcIupf
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9HkUZfPsG
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SFWPRs7m9
Angel and Oliver started to make their way to the entrance of the bar when319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkBNgj3zv7
Angel, through the corner of her eye, saw Kim and Trina. This was bad. From319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HpcejAKR3
where she stood, she feared Leo might also notice them. She slowed her pace319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0MHk74EiM
with Oliver and waited for Carly and Leo to catch up. If she was lucky, Leo319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JrFsOHXo6
might pass by without noticing Kim and Trina, but one can never be too sure.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR9tHhfzB6
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazelw6sGi5
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoviGNkWy3J
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLcYuRm0gu
Carly made her way to Angel and Oliver, with Leo following slowly behind her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH343w48Qn
Without much thought, his eyes found their way to the bar counter, and he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1CEWzngVD
noticed someone familiar at the other end. Only when the person turned in his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkpnaJ4efm
direction and their eyes fell on him did he realize who it was.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlT8LGX6IYA
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQf8ZbEu5J
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vrmHoxPab
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0ac9FTr2o
“Oh, my gosh,” said Kim as she held Trina’s shoulder in a tight grip. “He’s319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTnqd7Omfp
seen us.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFCAyx8fMx
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimfCsENujO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTpfgcA72v
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi1ETQmFkD
Trina choked on her own words that she couldn’t speak as he saw Leo staring319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3JZqmeqor
back. His eyes slowly started to flame with anger. Or was it fury?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxkn5kXfIi
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BYyPMWeRY
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl0QgSus4r
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJxDMhQans
“Trina, we better go,” said Kim.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwlX3gf9rg
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkJ1ymJrsc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsod8MQiSMb
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaI9P0wnjz
Leo couldn’t believe Trina and Kim were there by the counter, staring back at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ5Pi5dYyh
him. Did they happen to be here by coincidence, or did were they here because319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBgi1GICH7
of him? He noticed how scared they looked at him, as if they had been caught319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6HYjEsJDD
doing something wrong. That confirmed that they were following him. He decided319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ644O0xWPWs
he was going to give them a piece of his mind.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkCQq7aQs4
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK0zlS5q5m
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDNVKTGLLt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRVnmRfq6g
Just as he was about to make his way over to them, a gentle touch fell on his319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuvsTLZy0M
shoulder, stopping him from proceeding further. He looked to the side, and he319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zjnAnmasx
found Angel standing right beside him, her hand on his shoulder. She looked at319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtHgda0U8z
him with her soft brown eyes; they were stern yet so peaceful. There was319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv9fd5StQ6
something about her look and her presence beside him that made him slowly start319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fxfE9AIXU
to feel the anger in him dissipate like smoke.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcVn12uI0R
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPRJ48ulam
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3vOiQLCf7
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9EkhvuZ7D
She shook her head. “Not here,” she said to him in her normal tone of voice.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGI3LDF9eR
“Now is not the time to make a scene.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomDVMfiOFA
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k8pC4XYM3
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4L2osMAli
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFg2UDpDRq
Leo sighed, and he felt his muscles slowly start to relax. Angel was right; now319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDM8J9aHKQ
wasn’t the time to throw a tantrum. He looked back at Kim, who continued to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMQubay8U2
look at him, still with a scared look on her face.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8rbGwxN7s
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLKUKHZ7US
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0TlduMdHC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1sHwbsY8B
"Fine," he said to Angel as he looked at her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgRxexITQA
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRwT7igZFM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO42MroP3o
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xg23UwOOG
Angel gave a smile of relief. She turned to look at Trina and Kim, giving them319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0t6YapTkuj
a nod of her head. The two best friends looked relieved, but they knew that319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ148oMCP3Dt
this wasn’t over.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ftBkCKdh9
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuqT4rVgLw
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe4bmO7TMw
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMQNbBdg6b
Leo turned around to head out of the bar. Fortunately, Oliver and Carly were319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvEGGE4E2P
way ahead of him, so they didn't see his silent altercation with Kim and Trina.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNl2ttQWeW
He walked out of the bar with Angel following closely behind him.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClSwRyytxz
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJANzQEEWx
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnZs7mAKeI
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQq6MQTYtL
"Thanks for that back there," Leo said to her.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakDzpoEJze
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTojspVWOP
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX1bhRDiJN
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDANACUTDSi
"Well, getting yourself angry wasn't going to do you or me any319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZeF7dwsMM
favors," said Angel.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQZGdyyj4w
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyahTgI8nwy
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgAacUay74
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiM4Ehq76Yh
Leo turned to look at her through the corner of his eye. "How long have319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j6nKznyHx
they been there?"319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rrx7iRNwM
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l01oJJTu0
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21yL1UemNK
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9CNwb1etu
Angel found no point in lying to him. "I noticed them during our dinner. I319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcNXNqIHhA
didn't want to tell you in front of our guests."319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfx1bo6Qho
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqvDQlJmeZ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyCWOcP7PF
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnnkm2lxNw
Leo scoffed. "It's obvious that they were following me. I guess that’s the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9kI6bANaP
reason why you didn’t want me to be alone with Carly."319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGdyLvmgu7
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmH7yJgzPo
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh1IPjRm2q
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWN4aew0W7M
"I don't want them to find out about your relationship with her just yet,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxObUh40Mw
so you've got to be careful from now on."319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUI6JA9vJj4
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkx5nETjk3
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiHN4ak6Aw
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsbLcJiGiE
A smile appeared across Leo's face. The two might have their differences, but319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxQojX5MrR
it was clear to see that Angel did care about his relationship with her sister.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeb8pmPkEm
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IAxcexW9C
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoGjrxvMPO
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4jq3SRNnc
As they continued to walk down the stone path towards the fountain where Oliver319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR0CJraNVg
and Carly were, Leo tried to fight off the feeling of gratitude towards Angel.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA6ThnD89W
In the end, he decided to let the feeling settle in for one night, and one319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QBKKqDkBY
night only.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡao1XCMuIim
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtNXw2eygs
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDGASX95QL
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQGgpMI61Z
“That was a close one,” said Trina as she held her chest, breathing deeply.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7M37tDVsuJ
“For sure, I thought Leo was going to come charging at us.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuogHUVqZW
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaOCQ0e9cT
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbAh8jUjsn
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzVmei2zFV
Kim sighed in relief. “I hate to say this, but we really do have Angel to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrVyznWDMO
thank,” she said. “Though I feel Leo will confront us about it.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0XJ8HEYnu
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl8NBC2Mmd
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8r8u01xyX8
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXl3b6FZSMm
“Yeah, but Angel talked to him, and he calmed down in an instant.” Trina leaned319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSD6fr2lqUj
against the bar counter, looking for the bartender. “Leo barely listens to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TijryHKCV
anyone, but he somehow listened to her. It’s best to receive his wrath319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlZYk5Y6sa
privately rather than in an open place where he can embarrass us. I’m going to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpvptUgvrq
order a cocktail and drink to thank Angel for saving our sorry lives. Do you319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI8c6KiBSs
want one?”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRj7SK0oYOf
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVsOWCiulm
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGFxlHndEu
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt5G9SYsm7
Kim gave a nod to Trina, and while her friend tried to get the attention of the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLqiI1r2T3
bartender, she couldn’t help but look at Leo with Angel walking beside him as319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FAKKSynhf
they went further away from the bar. Memories of her and Leo started to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwkW9CaMWT
surface, and she couldn’t recall once when he ever listened to her when he was319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG3r8C7IYM
upset. Trina was right. Leo barely listens to anyone, except this time around,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HjrWFMLNd
when Angel spoke to him. Her eyes fell upon Angel, who, even in that red velvet319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzpOgXfNRD
dress, walked effortlessly with elegance beside Leo. Was there something about319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwibNMIiSC
Angel that Kim wasn’t aware of?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoaVqnrV1S

Miranda quickly stepped out of the elevator and ran down the hall back to the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5eQw2oTLN
room where Red Lion and Mr. Walters were. She knew her thirty minutes were up,319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhOjtaJdvb
and she had been so distracted that she didn’t notice her phone vibrate in the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLack34fQx4
pocket of her jeans. When she checked in the elevator, she found three missed319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQlUOipOvD
calls from Mr. Walters, and she knew she was in for it.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7AAj8FG9X
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8LwotYCct
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC4dKfp8ep
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo5iqzgUe2
As soon as she reached the suite, the door flew open before she could even319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD23Qxds6K
knock. She thought the first person she would see was Red Lion, but to her319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSp2dU7Pzu
relief, it was Walters.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIduVgL16t
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFLATtrvvc
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLMCsxxCJJ
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizTpa5DeUZ
“What took you so long?” he asked. “And why didn’t you answer my calls?”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjTpb6Vo04
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtkyuTGz73
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88xwYVl8Vo
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoeoiRGt3q
“I’m sorry,” said Miranda. “I got a little distracted. Is he here?”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49FNCxrUOH
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7aPnkqMSH
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI97rq4SKHi
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wi9lQ7GH5
“Yeah, but count yourself lucky,” said Walters as he stood aside to let Miranda319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXDTJRjjCg
through the door. “Red Lion was going to kill you if he wanted to.”319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3TDwO7r3K
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNT2VXAmiC
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOFV3ZEZrU
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDOctopJem
Miranda slowly stepped into the room, looking towards the living room area. Red319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wlmRTAD7J
Lion's comrade sat on the couch. His eyes fixed on the TV screen that showed319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQySGyAP3U
the football game. Two more people sat on the other couch. They wore black319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKM0c8Lna0
suits, and they were of Asian descent. The two looked like bodyguards. Were319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Nrkc9X4S1
they here with the host who called for this meeting? Moreover, where was Red319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzEggPJaQh
Lion?319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieQZRI1zwq
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK3pCplzNW
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gEJbfHy7u
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcd3PD8Omf
When she entered the living room area, she heard voices coming from the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VMoo62vYo
balcony. She saw Red Lion standing by the open doors of the balcony. Someone319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd9gRPVVRW
stood in front of him, talking to him. Miranda couldn’t see who it was as the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmokLedGVo
person stood on the balcony, and the doors hid him from view.319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljdu2HOHXt
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTsbPjfnJX
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiLwyejT0T
319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsxrlof6n3
Red Lion noticed Miranda's presence and turned to look at her. He surprisingly319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wekqSqgqH
smiled. She almost sighed in relief, for she really thought he was going to319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69Jz5iyqof
squeeze her throat for being late. He turned to the person who stood on the319Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32s3i1B0m7
