Mark Reed pinched her nose. Although he was asking, there was a hint of threat in his words.
Valentine Teller pouted. Could she say he wasn't the best?
Who knows how he would punish her again? She rubbed her still sore butt. Did he have a tendency for abuse?
A smart girl knows when to avoid trouble, agree first and talk later.
Valentine forced a smile. "Yes, of course, you're the best. No one can compare to you..."
Annoying!
She added silently in her heart.
Really, nobody was more annoying than him, such an aggravating person!
One moment he wants to marry Madison Barton, the next he wants to marry her, and then he switches back to marrying Madison again. Now he wants her. Who knows, tomorrow he might say he's decided to marry Madison after all.
Who knows which one he really wants to marry?
No matter what she thought, she said it, and it was pleasing to Mark's ears.
He was always the best; it was just this silly girl who didn't appreciate it.
