• Outside the building, Mason was practically bouncing with excitement as he threw an arm over Liza’s shoulders. “Sister Liza, why on earth did you suddenly agree to collaborate with Stone Corporation? You don’t have to feel pressured just because of me. Seriously, you’re not obligated to say yes!”

The moment they stepped outside, their eyes fell on the scene ahead: Mason leaning closely toward Liza, his arm draped comfortably around her shoulders, chatting away non-stop.
