Stephania was quick to quip, "Are you implying that I'm a jinx?"

Molly found herself intrigued by Stephania's unconventional thinking. "You're quite interesting, Stephania. I'm starting to like you."

Sure enough, Jack showed up at Chade Inc. the next day. Molly went to the basement to avoid him.

On the third day, Jack brazenly entered Chade Inc. Molly was irate. She pulled out a pocket knife she carried around and shouted in the busy lobby, "Alright, Jack, you claim to love me. Prove it.
