Edwin maintained his composure and replied, “At the moment, | have no such needs. If you feel compelled, you're free to seek companionship elsewhere to fulfill your needs.

In a sudden move, Vanessa wrapped her arms around Edwin's neck and planted a swift kiss on his cheek. Her initial intention had been to kiss his lips, but she held back, fearing that it might enrage Edwin completely.
Edwin was about to voice his displeasure when he noticed Laura approaching.
She was wearing a smoky grey dress.
Laura's attire featured a wide neckline that gracefully exposed her delicate neck, and her slim waist could easily be cradled with just one hand.
Her black hair was elegantly swept up, adorned with a magnolia flower.
Edwin found himself momentarily captivated by Laura's presence, thinking that she embodied the verse from a poem, “raven hair flowing like silk.” Dylan looked around.

“It's been a while, Mr. Evans! You're here with your girlfriend, | see. We'll be relying on your strong support for Laura's designs later.” Edwin's gaze fell on Dylan's hand around Laura's waist.
His eyes narrowed slightly as he responded in a measured tone, “Certainly.” Dylan chuckled as he and Laura settled into their seats, his arm casually draped around her.
He let go of her hand but leaned in to whisper something in her ear.
Laura, doing her best to avoid Edwin's gaze, found it challenging.
Edwin was close, just a seat away, separated by Dylan. She could even catch the familiar scent of his cologne.
