Sean was stunned for a moment. She was putting on a ladylike act?

"Old Mrs. Graham obviously prefers gentle people, so I put on an act just to meet you. Whether we're compatible or not is not something that can be judged by elders at a glance. We have to spend time together to truly understand each other!" Irene blurted out in one breath.

Sean nodded. "You're right. I may be a bit reserved. Perhaps I should be more talkative."

"I can't eat all of this. I'm sorry." Irene apologized uncomfortably.
