Matthew replied, "Yeah. You guys should go back and get changed. We'll have lunch together later before catching my cousin's performance."

"What happened in the end? Did she give in?"

"No," Charlotte replied, shaking her head. "She's as stubborn as a mule and wouldn't budge. She's even refused to eat for the past two days since her family wouldn't stop forcing her."
