"This is a challenge, Elise. You need to bring him or we won't stop at all. We need the confirmation."
Elise bit her lip but then nodded. "Of course, I'll bring my boyfriend to the gala. You'll meet him by then."
Actually, it was none of anyone's business even if she was dating Marc Sanderman. Who cared if she did! It was human's rights to date anyone they fancied.
However, Elise didn't like confrontation and she was tired of the ongoing gossips in the office. She just wanted to work and make honest money so she could stand up on her own two feet.
It's good that now she had Loriel who was kind to her and had been helping her, but for how long? What happened if things went south between them?
"What is he like, Elise?" This time around, the people were actually interested in the person that she was dating.
