“Maria, you know I’ve never actually treated you like a little sister. The truth is, I’ve always liked you, Davon

said.

Marianna’s heart soared when she heard that. But then something else crossed her mind, and she frowned. her lips forming a little pout.

You like me? I honestly thought you were into Kayla. She’s gorgeous, loaded, and super well–connected. Plus, she could totally help your career someday. Wouldn’t you be better off with someone like her?” Maria said, unable to hide the jealousy in her voice.

At the mention of Kayla, Davon immediately thought about how weird she’d been acting lately.

Back in the day, Kayla was always circling around him, constantly checking on him, bringing him snacks, and making sure he got whatever he wanted.

But recently, Kayla had completely flipped. She didn’t give him the time of day anymore. Instead, she kept embarrassing him in public and even had the nerve to hit him. It was like she’d become a totally different

person.

Davon’s expression darkened with disgust. “Why even bring her up? All she’s got going for her is money. She’s spoiled, bossy, always pushing people around, and way too mouthy.

“You’re nothing like that. You’re sweet, kind, hardworking, and always trying to better yourself. That’s what a girl should be like. She can’t even compare to you. Honestly? I can’t stand her.”

A flash of smugness flickered in Marianna’s eyes. ‘No matter how high and mighty Kayla thinks she is, Davon only has eyes for me, not her,‘ she thought smugly. ‘She’s destined to be a loser who’ll never get what she

wants.

Marianna was in such a good mood that she didn’t mind throwing Davon a little reward. Her small hand playfully grazed his palm. She could feel him tense up immediately, and his grip on her hand tightened.

Marianna played innocent. “Am I really as amazing as you say? Are you just trying to sweet–talk me?”

The ticklish sensation in his palm made Davon’s heart race. Heat flooded through him, and for a second, he wanted to just pull her close and kiss her senseless. But he held back, worried she might not like it.

Davon swallowed hard and locked eyes with her. “Of course! You’re even more amazing than I could ever say.”

Marianna watched his face turn bright red, but he still didn’t make a move. ‘Seriously? Is he just gonna talk about it forever? she thought with mild contempt. ‘What kind of guy can’t even make the first move?”

This teasing distance between them was driving Maria crazy. She felt restless, wishing he’d finally do something.

Forget it, Maria thought. If he wants me but won’t act on it, then I’ll just have to give him a push.

A sly smile spread across Marianna’s lips. “You’re really good with words. Then how about-”
