Luckily, I managed to persuade Hannah not to sulk with me anymore, because I had to throw away my pride to cancel the restaurant reservation I had prepared since yesterday afternoon if I had failed to persuade her.
"Richard…"
"Hmm?" I said this without even looking at her, with my eyes fixed on the street in front of us at this time. "What's wrong?"
"Are you sure that I don't have to pay for everything you bought me at the boutique we went to earlier?"
"If you still object to the clothes and accessories I bought for you at the boutique I frequented earlier, Hannah, you can consider that all of this is compensation from me for dragging you jogging with me without asking your opinion first."
Hannah fell silent at my response, to the point where I worried that I'd said something to offend her again.
Biting my lower lip, I tried to hide my worry at the response she would give me and slammed on my car's brake pedal as soon as I saw the traffic light turn red.
