Stoddard took the seat to Roseanne's left, immediately pouring her a glass of iced tea. "It's sweltering tonight, easy to get overheated. Have stea first. Oh, and you've got to try the pickles-they're a fantastic appetizer. Want some?"

Liz watched the scene unfold with lips pressed tighter and tighter.

e Stoddard, and even you, all you see is Roseanne. She's perfect in every way, always outstanding!" "Roseanne, Roseanne, Roseanne! I'm sick of hearing that name. I just wanted things to go back to the way they were. Is that so wrong?" Liz had been relatively calm, but as she spoke, her pent-up emotions burst forth like a dam breaking, uncontrollable and fierce.

Seeing her like a wounded animal, Sammy's heart softened, and he blurted out, "Liz, I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?" Like RICH WOMEN? X These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich. women will persue you.
