Ashton said, “I want to be your boyfriend.”

But the problem was she didn’t want that.

She didn’t want to give one, honestly. Even if this man’s insanely handsome face at such close range was truly heart–stirring, she still didn’t

want to give him a chance.

Briar was just about to politely decline when Brandon walked in from outside, cutting her off. “Mr. Wade, the director and others from the

crew are outside. They want to see you…”

Seeing how close the two were, Brandon choked on his words. They were way too familiar. It was the exact same one Xavion had every time he pretended to be all proper before losing control.

Brandon froze on the spot, not daring to turn around. “Yes, Mr. Wade.”
