The man's words were utterly uncompromising, as cold as ice.
Jessica Sullivan's smile froze on her face. She had been delighted to finally meet a friend of Jace Pierce, thinking she could finally get his contact information. But now, her mood plummeted from a sunny spring to the dead of winter!
She almost blurted out, "Why?"
Maverick Knight showed no expression, lacking patience, "Because you're too ugly."
Jessica Sullivan: "..."
Aurora Blaine could almost picture the scene when Jace Pierce rejected Jessica Sullivan. It made her want to laugh, and indeed, she couldn't hold it in.
Moreover, Maverick Knight's straightforwardness could leave one speechless; Aurora had experienced it before.
Jessica Sullivan, already shaken, saw Aurora Blaine laughing and gritted her teeth, "Is it you?"
Did she think Aurora told Maverick Knight not to share the contact info? Aurora hadn't said a word, right? So unreasonable?
Aurora Blaine found the blame thoroughly absurd.
