"Ahem…" Loriel hit Marc's back and gave him a serious side-eye. "The lady has introduced herself. Don't be rude."
Marc batted his eyes and realization immediately dawned on him. He smiled sheepishly and shook Elise's hand. "Oh, hello, Miss. My name is Marc Sanderman. Nice to meet you."
Marc was surprised to see no reaction whatsoever from Elise when he introduced his name.
Didn't this woman know him? His name was all over the news in recent years as the most eligible bachelor, the most sought-after executive, New York's No.1 Dream Husband, and many other nicknames he was pleased to hear.
It looked like his name meant nothing to her.
Okay, this woman was truly Loriel's match, Marc thought to himself. She must not read the news. Did she hate reading the news too, just like Loriel?
"Welcome," said Loriel curtly. He closed the door and walked back to the kitchen. Marc nodded and then stepped inside the penthouse.
