“Alright.” Winifred hooked her arm through Sienna’s, shooting Julian a displeased look as she purposefully pulled Sienna a little further away from him
Julian, without betraying any emotion, slowed his steps and trailed behind them
Back at the villa, Winifred noticed Julian following them and asked with a frown, “Don’t tell me you’re coming in with us.”

Sean nodded. His cousin was the absolute best–gentle, refined, polite, always so humble and gracious. Honestly, he was the perfect guy in every possible way. He’d looked up to him ever since he was a kid.
