She said. “Of course, in my heart Mr Scott is better if both of you pursued me. I would definitely choose you, Mr. Scott

“What Nanette asked
“Nothing” Manley leaned against the sofa, gazing lazily out of the window. His side profile was stunning
Nanette couldn’t help but feel her heart race and finally spoke up softly. “Mr Scoff

She couldn’t help it, wanting to solidify their relationship Manley kept initiating their dates and even took her to a dessert shop that girls would adore, he must like her, night?
Manley laughed. What did you tell your dad”

Manley chuckled softly, his tone gentle, ‘Didn’t you say your mom doesn’t want you to date right now? You’re supposed to be a future star, and dating prematurely is taboo.”

She forced a smile “Yeah”
When they went to pay the bill, the store manager quickly came and said, “Mr. Scott, you don’t need to pay Everything will be on the house for our boss’s friends”
