“Oh, you interested?” Elise shot him a sunny smile and immediately withdrew it, expressionlessly saying, “See for yourself, then.”
With that, she turned away and seemed to have no intention to continue. That’s what you get for threatening me with Claude!
Rendered speechless, Kenneth furiously rolled his eyes. All of a sudden, he had an idea. Casually, he rested one leg on the other, uttering, “Since you asked for it, fine, I’ll be your plus-one. You don’t have to thank me, alright.”
“Who thanked you!” Elise yelled, irked. When she blurted those words, she realized his implication and stared at him with her pretty, round eyes. “No, I mean, who asked for a plus-one? Don’t get ahead of yourself!”
“Hmm…” Kenneth let out a long hum and revealed a helpless look. “Don’t worry. I won’t embarrass you. Besides, I’m already here. If words were to spread that I let you walk into the dog-eat-dog occasion alone, how is Kenneth Bailey going to survive in society?”
