Chapter 1005

Monica was way too proud to just tag along-no way was she going to give in that easily.

Trying to sound all cool and unaffected, Monica said, "What's so great about Phoenix anyway? And even if I wanted to travel, it definitely wouldn't be with a certain someone." As she spoke, she practically hid behind her hand.

Anastasia shot Jason a look, basically begging him to say something-throw Monica a lifeline, please.

But nope, both of them just kept being stubborn. At this rate, how were they ever going to make up?

Jason, not exactly Mr. Comfort, just turned to Anastasia and kept the small talk going. "It's been, what, over a month? You look good."
