What kind of relationship do they have? Promises, really?

Sherilyn got the irony, retorting, “I don’t get along with Caroline, and you still want to push this forward. That means I’ll inevitably run into her again. We’ll end up arguing, maybe even getting into a physical altercation like last time on set!”

She really didn’t get it. “Doesn’t that bother you?”

Who dates just to find trouble?

Bringing someone home only to end up fighting every day… Is he out of his mind, or does he have a penchant for punishment?

Gilbert’s lips curled into a smirk, his eyebrows lifting. “Oh, what, you’re worried about me?” Sherilyn was both furious and speechless.

“It’s still the same,” Gilbert said, his smile widening, indulging in his fantasies since, after all, dreaming was tax–free.
