Laney gritted her teeth and said firmly, “Greg, I don‘t like you that way.I only think of you as a friend.”

Greg ran his fingers through his wet hair and murmured, “So, you don‘t hate me? Are you saying I just need to try harder?”

Laney left the supermarket with nothing but anger.She was inexplicably annoyed.

Just a few days ago, Garrett tried talking her out of getting into a relationship with someone else.
