Seemingly oblivious to Lukas's growing anger, Reese nodded calmly and took a bite of her steak. "Yes, he did, but I turned him down."

Lukas squeezed the dishes so hard that they rattled, his chest rising and falling with his growing anger.

Reese cast a casual glance at him, her voice laced with a hint of mockery, "Let's have dinner, shall we? I'm not with him anymore, okay? Can you please stop sulking?"
