Marco answered, and a subordinate started speaking in a respectful tone.
“Grady came by to see Loraine just now. The two of them went to Forest
Restaurant together.”
Marco sat upright, sobering immediately.
“Keep an eye on them,” he ordered. “I’ll be there soon.”
Grabbing his coat, Marco rushed out of the bar.
ter and Jimmie watched him leave, dumbfounded, then looked at each other. They both had the
same thought.
“The only person able to make Marco act that irrationally is Loraine. I guess it’s something to do with
her again.” Jimmie sighed.
Clicking his tongue, ter replied, “We have to help him. Otherwise when will he be able to win her

Jimmie didn’t reply. He Looked down at his watch and stood up, saying,

“I have to go. There’s something I need to do. You can think about it by yourself.”
Then Jimmie, too, rushed out of the bar.
“What? Why did they all leave?” ter was left sitting alone in the private room. He sipped his wine,
shook his head, and sighed. “Those two are so unreliable. Looks like I’ll have to find a way to help
Marco. I’ve got a long way to go!”
Immersed in his fantasy of being the one to help Marco win Loraine’s heart, terpletely forgot
that she hated him.
In Forest Restaurant, Grady and Loraine shared a table.
Grady looked disappointed. His eyescked their usual luster.
“Loraine, I’m sorry for what happened on the Inte. My mother was keeping a close eye on me, so I
couldn’t rify it for you. It wasn’t easy for me toe out today. I’m sorry I got you into trouble.”
Noticing Grady’s anguish, Loraine shook her head andforted him. “It doesn’t matter. It’s all over.”
Grady smiled bitterly. Although it was overt, his rtionship with
Loraine became awkward.
They looked at each wordlessly, falling into silence.
A waiter approached and lit some scented candles, then brought over arge bouquet of exotic flowers
and ced them in a vase in the center of the table.
