Chapter 52

Outside the car, Edgar's tone stayed calm. "I have no intention of marrying you. It's something our families want, not us. If you are against the engagement, so am I. So there's really no point in these kinds of questions." Ava shrugged casually. "Keep that attitude, seriously. ‘Cause I've never liked you, and I'm not about to marry someone I don't care for." She flipped her hair a bit and added, "Oh, almost forgot-Louise and I are friends. Watching you act all smug and experienced inside the store was honestly hilarious." She lifted her chin with a smug little smile, hit the gas, and sped off. Behind her, Edgar stood still, eyes narrowing as he watched the car vanish into the distance. He hadn't expected Ava to be close with Louise. No wonder she was clearly annoyed with him the moment they first met. ***** Meanwhile, things at the Bennett Corporation were going smoothly after securing the UL partnership. Once word got out, several media outlets reached out asking to interview Louise.
