Forbidden Passion

Chapter 159 What's Going on with You Two?

Upon their return to the chic boutique, Phoebe and Theodore seemed to carry an aura that inevitably drew the gaze of others. Phoebe took a seat next to Cindy, catching a glimpse of Theodore settling behind her. A sudden tug on her sleeve drew her attention to Cindy, who leaned in and whispered, "What's going on with you two?"

Cindy observed her friend, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"What are you really here for? The exhibition or me?"
