They walked into the villa, and Jack, being the gentleman he was, guided Molly around. "I have a swimming instructor's certification. If you're up for it, I can accompany you for a swim." With a touch of arrogance, Molly replied, "My brother not only has a swimming instructor's certification but also a lifeguard one."

What she was implying was he was not as good as her brother.

Jack chuckled and agreed, "Absolutely, your brother's the best."

"Of course, my brother is a cop," Molly said, her pride shining through.

Jack noticed that Chad was like a mountain in Molly's heart. She only spoke more when Chad was brought up. This made him even more curious about Chad.

He took Molly to the billiard room, "Do you play pool?"

"My brother taught me, but I'm not very good. I accidentally hurt someone while playing once, and I've been too scared to play since."

Next, Jack took Molly to the bar, the private cinema, the gaming room, and so forth. Finally, he opened a bedroom on the third floor, "This is the master bedroom. You can rest here if you're tired." Molly frowned, "I thought I was going home tonight?"

Jack reassured the wary Molly with a smile, "If you want to go home, I'll take you. They might stay the night, so I picked a place with plenty of guest rooms. I've reserved the best master bedroom. It's especially for you." Molly glanced at him and nodded, "Thanks, but as the host of today, you should keep the master bedroom. I'll head home if I get tired."

Seeing her distance, Jack responded with a gentlemanly smile, "Alright."

Food was already prepared and placed on the table. Molly glanced over the party-goers, around fifteen or sixteen people.

Ms. Thornton, on the other hand, was trying to play matchmaker. "Mr. Jack, I didn't see you showing us around every room. It seems like Molly is special in your eyes."

Molly responded with a sharp retort, her smile never leaving her face. "It seems like you are jealous. If you're interested in Jack, you can tell me in private. I can help you guys connect. I wish you guys a quick trip to the altar." The people around them started laughing, "Ms. Thornton, you're not really into Mr. Jack, are you?"
