A Love Trap

Martin's face softened a little bit as he glanced at Belinda. "Are you sure? We just have to go out once?"

"I'm sure, I'm sure! And then, I'll listen to whatever you have to say."

"Fine. But you have to hold my hand and stay with me all the time, understood?"

"I know, I'm not a kid. Do you think I'll get lost?"

Martin didn't say anything. Belinda had not gone out in a long time, and he truly worried about her.

But on the other hand, seeing how happy she was, he didn't want to say anything that could upset her.

Jeremy hung up the phone and made sure there wasn't anything important he needed to do. After giving his assistant some instructions, he left the office.

He got into his car and made another call.

Angelina was surprised to receive Jeremy's call. This was the first time Jeremy contacted her ever since their last meeting, she thought he already ditched her.

"Where are you? Can I come see you?" Jeremy asked politely and gently.

Jeremy could hear Angelina talking to her friends to excuse herself. "I'm in school. Graduation is coming up, so I have to hurry and finish my thesis. But I have already finished my part," Angelina explained.

"Oh, then is it okay for me to come see you there?"

"Sure," affirmed Angelina.

"Great. Wait for me there then."

"Okay, Jeremy, see you soon," Angelina hung up the phone.
