Chapter 27

• Brian, I and his father were the only ones at the dinner. I was perplexed, yet confused to think that the dinner was meant for the three of us alone. But it was. My stare couldn’t stop combing around for the rest of the Fanny’s.
• I expected to have Opula, Kate and Eva at dinner too, but my expectations were disappointed. From the looks on their faces, I could tell the girls were jealous and angry. I wondered what could have made the billionaire host such a quarrelsome dinner.
• Fanny gave a lop-sided grin. “I can see your good work on Brian,” Fanny said, smiling and pouring his wine, “He looks fresher and cool now. Thank you very much Melissa,” he added warmly, and smiled at Brain without getting his compliment.
