Julie said with a smile, ‘Mr. Hernandez, you’re quite the joker, aren’t you? Ever since you announced your engagement to Ms. Bertha last month, you’ve been the talk of Whispering Pines.

To Julie’s accusations, Kieran just chuckled, “I’ve never admitted to any media that I was going to marry Bertha. How could you, Ms. Abraham, be swayed by rumors?”
