Despite their inner turmoil, they didn't dare voice their grievances or let their true feelings show. Domenic managed a strained smile and said, "Nothing major. The three of us ate something we shouldn't have and now we've got stomachaches." Marc and Terry added, "Yes. Our stomachs are upset."
Connor gave them a dismissive look and walked into the building, still hand in hand with Marissa. Domenic, all exhaled in relief.

She's always upset when she loses, and I can't sleep." Just then, Connor and Marissa entered. Arabella quickly stepped forward and eagerly asked, "Sweetie, did you win? Did you give that bastard a lesson?"
