“Jerk?” Curtis merely raised an eyebrow at the accusation, taking the scandalous title in stride. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”

“Compliment? You wish! How dare you flirt with her right in front of me? Do you think I’m invisible?” Joy fumed, her anger reaching boiling point.

She was about to explode. Meanwhile, Curtis remained calm, a teasing smile playing on his lips as he turned to Leanne. “She accuses me of flirting. Tell me, Leanne, have I seduced you?”

“Isn’t it getting late? Shouldn’t you be heading back?”

Joy immediately shook her head.

Having witnessed Curtis’ charming tactics firsthand, she couldn’t leave Leanne alone with this man. Who knows what might happen if they were left alone?

“I’m not leaving. I’ll stay with you tonight!”

She gestured towards Curtis, suggesting, “Make him leave. I can take care of you.”
