Biting her tongue, Sarah retorted, “Look, Jake's been working his tail off lately, and as his girlfriend, it's only natural I take care of him." Sarah claimed she had set the table with a feast fit for Jake, waiting for him to cback.

They'll definitely have plenty of future dinners together, and I will surely join them."

He likes those fancy crafts, right? I can help you make one." Bria's lips curled into a sneer. "Do you think I'm skind of idiot?” she spat. “I can just whip out my credit card and buy one. Hell, I could probably find someone to knockup a copy. Why the hell would I crawl to you for help?" Kallie remained unfazed and continued. “Because deep down, you care about your reputation. If there was another option, you would have taken it already." Despite Bria's frail appearance, Kallie saw a flicker of fierce determination in her eyes. Bria wouldn't be pushed around easily; her pride was clearly on the line.
