But to Yvonne, Thomas was like a brother. Her feelings for him had long been solidified in that category, and that was never going to change.
She had accepted his invitation today intending to make things clear, but Thomas didn't give her the chance.
She greeted his friends politely and gracefully, joining them for a game of tennis and then a round of golf.
Initially, their praise for Yvonne was mostly out of respect for Thomas.
But she was a skilled golfer and an excellent tennis player. She was beautiful, confident, and radiant, practically glowing with energy.
Before long, their compliments became noticeably more sincere.
"Ms. Jones is the most charming woman I've ever met. No wonder Mr. Taylor is so smitten," a well-known producer in the industry teased with a smile.
"Yvonne is truly exceptional. I'll have to keep trying my best to win her over," Thomas replied with a warm, open smile.
Yvonne remained silent, pretending not to hear.
In this situation, flatly rejecting Thomas would be a slap in his face, a truly tactless move.
After golf and tennis, someone suggested a bit of target practice.
So Thomas led them to the shooting range.
As the group approached, they were surprised to run into Oscar and Yolanda.
The Thompson family's private estate wasn't a place just anyone could enter. But as Bennett's girlfriend, Yolanda had access.
Oscar was accompanying her, and the two were laughing and talking together. It was clear that Oscar was quite good at keeping Ms. Walker happy.
"Yolanda, Mr. Rogers, I didn't expect to see you two here," Thomas said, slightly surprised.
