As he was saying that, he passed his phone to Charlotte after unlocking it…

“Why did you change your phone number?” asked Charlotte. “Oh, I know… I bet a lot of girls must’ve had your old number,” she added.

“Hey, the past is in the past. I’m a different man now. I’ll only be yours in the future!” Chris promised solemnly.

“Hah! Only a fool would believe you.” Charlotte feigned a smile.

“I swear!” Chris raised his hand. “From now on, if I’m ever seen fooling around with other girls, then I shall be forever cursed with erectile dysfunction.”
