Aaron smiled threateningly, causing a chill to go up Marcus’ spine. For a moment, he thought he was going to fire him.

“Okay, then. Goodbye, Mister Aaron! We’re going now,” said Annie, breaking the silence as she pulled Marcus to the shopping mall near the restaurant.

Aaron remained standing where he was, lost in thought for a few minutes before getting into his car.

Annie snapped back to the present and looked at him sheepishly. “Sorry, Marcus. I didn’t mean to cause you any trouble…”

Marcus quickly shook his head. “No, I don’t mean that. I’m just worried that he’s trying to steal you from me. I mean, I’ll surely lose in a fight against him.”
