“We already have, haven’t we?” Ryan smirked at me, all fake smiles, flashing his ring finger. “Hey, I’m married now. I’m not gonna stand in your way. Love’s all about feelings anyway. Uncle Ryan’s into you? Not surprised.”

I let out a laugh and nodded. “Just for fun, huh? If you take it seriously, it’s boring anyway.”

Edward, sensing the silent war between Ryan and me, jumped in, “Okay, food’s here. Let’s just eat.”
