Then I guess I really don't have anything to worry about. I believe Virgil will be happy to hear this news," said Rita, crossing her arms and giving the appearance of agreeing to no longer get involved in the matter.
However, Sherman knew she would not give up that easily.
"Letremind you one more time, Miss Rita: don't try to secretly investigate that developer. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you if anything happens," warned Sherman seriously, and Rita could not help but nod obediently.

Sherman remained seated, unable to suppress a soft chuckle. It had been a long tsince he had seen someone take the initiative to leave before him. Only Rita would dare to do such a thing. Just as she was about to leave, Rita suddenly turned back with a smile.
"What?" Sherman was a bit puzzled.
"You may not be aware, but when you're feeling guilty, you always unconsciously rub your fingertips. Glad to have made this discovery. Goodbye." Rita left without looking back, leaving Sherman alone to ponder the meaning of her parting words.
Rita left the cafe feeling refreshed. Even though Sherman's response was not pleasant to hear, she believed she had received her answer.
At least she knew that when this man helped her, it was sincere, not because of any cooperation with her family's company or to save face for her father.
As she sat in her car, she accidentally caught sight of her flushed cheeks in the rearview mirror. Her face was so hot that it could fry an egg. Rita buried her head in the steering wheel, unable to contain her laughter.
Before this, she had not been in a rush to get married, but if she could find someone she truly cared for, marriage was not totally out of the question. With a smile on her face, Rita drove away.

"Hello?" Claire's voice was still as sweet as ever, completely different from the image she presented to the outside world.
Sherman put on a gentle smile. "What's up? Why are you callingall of a sudden?" "Nothing much. Can't I call you? Anyway, there's a new movie out recently starring my favorite actor. Will you go withto watch it?"
Claire's excitement was evident in her voice, but Sherman hesitated With your current popularity, won't you be recognized if we go out?" The content. is on novelenglish.net!
Claire pursed her lips. "I'm not that famous. The interview from last thasn't even been released yet. Even if I walk down the street now, no one will recognize me. So will you go withor not?"
Listening to Claire's voice, Sherman could imagine her pouting. In the end, he nodded. "Alright, I go with you. But don't ccrying toif any unflattering photos of us are taken."
