If Paul could hit it off with Melanie, Stephanie no.velxo would no longer be plagued with
worries.

gesture. She and Melanie chatted sometimes. xo Although Melanie knew Paul liked
Stephanie, she had not shown animosity towards her. Hence, Stephanie felt that she was a
good person.
As for Paul, he paled in comparison.

mistake.
Leonard was made uncomfortable by the way she kept looking at them. He got her to look
at him instead. "What are you looking at? Are you still thinking about your past lover?"
"Oh, what are you talking about? I was looking at Melanie." Stephanie glared at him. "Past
lover" sounded so terrible.
Leonard didn't let her keep staring at them. "Don't look anymore. Everyone's happy to see
them together. It's a good thing for us, too."

"It's fine. I can sober him up." Jenny shook her head. It was late, and she didn't want to

"Jenny." Gilbert was tipsy, and his eyes were glazed over. "I'm glad to see you happy."
"Thanks, Gilbert. No matter who I'm with, xo you will always be my brother. We will

"Don't worry. I'm brilliant. I'll definitely find no.velxo someone that I like." Gilbert smiled.
