"Oh, gosh." Yates couldn't help but chuckle, "Looks like Gilbert is all grown up now. First, wanting to buy gifts for a girl who's not Caroline, and next, getting enchanted by the star dancer at Neon Nights Bar. Oh Gilbert, you've come a long way."

As usual, Sherilyn would only dance once tonight. The calls for an encore outside were relentless, and she felt embarrassed.

But Colin didn't mind at all. "You only danced once, but do you know how much money you've made for Neon Nights Bar in just those few minutes? You deserve every penny, especially with the tip jar scheme kicking off soon."
