Chloe rolled her eyes. “Hmph, one’s for you. Hey, handsome, go on, take a seat next to the lady here!”

The escort settled down beside Matilda with an enthusiastic grin, taking her by surprise. She blurted out without thinking. “Easy there, big guy!”

Yvan’s handsome face turned pale with irritation, but he managed to stay seated, just like Bennett, craning his neck to see.

Bennett laughed even more. “Ah, they’re pretty dashing, though not quite on my level…”
