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. Cut off a finger to show your love. If you do it, I'll be your girlfriend. If you don't, I'll call the cops if you bother me again!" The surrounding crowd quieted down to watch the spectacle unfold.

Jack was taken aback. The Molly he remembered was gentle, intelligent, and elegant, not this fiery, unpredictable, and arrogant woman. "Molly, stop this nonsense."

"I mean it, Jack. Either show me a severed finger, or stay away from me forever!"

After saying that, Molly stormed out of the lobby leaving Jack standing in awkward silence.
