The buzz online was heating up. Despite being swamped with work. Finley still caught wind from his buddy Martin Oliver that Elaine had made the trend with a mystenous man and their chemistry looked anything but orduury.

His eyebrows knotted tightly.

"Oh

oh no. Martin chimed in, holding has phone and addressing Finley, "Did Elaine lose it over how close you are getting to Bianca? First, she gets in a man's car, and now she's flirting in plain sight. She's obviously trying to get under your skin. Finley, maybe you should apologize to her. Snapping at each other like this isn't going anywhere.

"And, dude, a woman's bound to get jealous when she sees you close with your ex. You and Bianca have been way too touchy-feely lately. Even I can't stand it and I'm your bro

He was fully aware of Elaine's obsession and possessiveness toward him and was quite confident about himself

It was always women chasing him, especially Elaine.

Hearing Finley's explanation, Martin didn't have much to say.

Finley picked up that day's newspaper, somehow, the more he read, the more annoyed he got

He wouldn't admit-not even to himself-that the cause of his irritation was Flaine

What he didn't know was that Elaine had already started discussing marriage with Kingsley.

As for her verbal engagement with Finley, it had tacitly been annulled long agn-when he was entangled with Bianca.

Since Finley didn't care for her and his heart leaned toward Bianca, she'd just let him be...
