"Al, let's get some breath?"
The moment Jones showed up, Sofia quickly stood up, grabbed Clara, and left. Both of them, like Luna, believed that Jones had a thing for me and even encouraged me behind my back to accept him. They thought it would not only piss off Damon, but also would get me a good man.
But of course, I flatly refused I didn't want to exploit Jones's feelings
The more genuine people are to me, the less I want to take advantage of them.
"Dr. Jones you're looking dashing today"" I complimented him sincerely
"How am I dashing?" Jones sat down beside me, asking with a smile.
In a teasing tone, I said, "So dashing that half of the young women in the room are sneaking peeks at you. Haven't you noticed? Or are you shortsighted?" Jones glanced around the room. Indeed, there were many young women, all beautiful and affluent.
His gaze remained steady, then he turned to me, "What about you? Have you been sneaking peeks at me too?"
