A gentleman with pure intentions
When Jacky heard his name, something in her head snapped. It was like she was reliving a past that she had tried hard to forget.
"Nope. Maybe he had decided to leave early. You know?" Jacky blurted out with a slight bitterness in her tone as she was reminded by the last time they were in this similar situation.
She thought she had burned those memories out of her system, but apparently, she only buried them in her mind. Now, it had resurfaced again, pointing out to her the pain he caused her that day.
She quickly smiled, realizing her reaction. She reprimanded her thoughts, reminding herself not to be bothered by the past. She quickly shoved the feelings away, not wanting anything that could ruin the beauty of the night.
"I believe that Marcus went outside with Ethan. I think he was giving him some advice on how to run his company while you two are gone." Lance corrected Jacky's assumption.
