“That man in the black jacket seems a bit like… Ryan?”

Ashley looked closely, but Bradley had got in the car, and she could not longer make out his features clearly.

Miranda sighed regretfully, “I wanted to introduce you to Bradley, but his team had a sudden issue, and he had to leave.”

Ashley couldn’t help but laugh. “How does he compare to that race car driver, Bradley?”

After a moment of thought, Miranda replied, “Mr. Pliskin is still more handsome. Oh! And Mr. Kingsley could be a star as well. He’s like the definition of handsome!”

With the sunset nearing the horizon, Ashley replied, “It’s evening, yes, time for dinner.”.

Valentin said. “Remember to eat well.”

Ashley was speechless. “I’m not a child. I know that.”
