The man looked at Veronica and asked, "And who is this lady with you, Miss Catherine?"
Catherine introduced her friend, "She is my friend, Veronica."
Veronica stepped forward with a friendly smile, "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr…"
"The pleasure is mine. Please call me Vincent, mademoiselle," Vincent bowed to her.
Although she was prettier, Vincent's eyes were on the blonde woman beside him.
His grey eyes smiled at Catherine and his hands were still grabbing her hands. "Miss Catherine, I've never seen such pretty hair as yours. My eyes have been cleansed by your beauty."
Sebastian wanted to cough blood. 'What is with him? Why is he acting like this? And why am I so offended? Argh!'
Feeling irritated, he glared at Catherine and Vincent's joined hands. 'Why isn't she saying anything?'
He glanced at Catherine and he nearly slipped from the tree. 'Why the hell is she smiling?'
