Levy’s girlfriend, a socialite whose reputation preceded her, eyed the garment with disdain. “This piec of mediocrity presumes to make amends? Dispose of it!” Her command was cut short as Levy, prioritizing practicality over pride, accepted the shirt and headed to the restroom to change.

Marcelo was the life of the party, drinking more than anyone else, but you couldn’t tell by looking at him.

He lounged on the couch with elegance, appearing as calm and dignified as always
