Balancing work and family is the key to success. And you, it's time to think about marrying Joyce. Both your parents have met each other, so what are you waiting for?"

Grayson chuckled and looked at Ryan. "Seize this opportunity. Don't make Chloe worry about you."

"You too. Don't act like nothing's going on." I directed this at Grayson.
