The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 2716

Dahlia’s agent, Sienna, popped open a bottle of sparkling water and, after inserting at straw, took a sip. “I gotta say, you really sounded like you were taking a stand for the entire dance industry during that interview. You almost had this ice queen here melting and ready to give you a standing ovation.”

Dahlia glanced at her with a hint of amusement. “What? You think I was laying it on too

And did you see how fired up she got with what I said? She’ll be chomping at the bit to follow my story, which means I get double the exposure without lifting a finger.”

Sienna nodded thoughtfully. “Still, that last bit about your ideal mate-you think Mr. Harris will get his feathers ruffled when he hears it?”

Mention of Nolan softened Dahlia’s otherwise cy demeanor. She pouted playfully. “I want to make him jealous. He needs to realize I’ve got options. Men are lining up for a chance with me.”
