Lowell barely looked up as he gathered the scattered papers on his desk. His tone was casual, almost amused. "He changed his mind because the second he..." Calmed down, he realized how ridiculously stupid it would be to help you manipulate Shaun into sleeping with you." A tense silence stretched between them. Then, slowly, Dolores's lips curled into a knowing smile. “You really are seeing someone Mom and Dad wouldn't approve of, aren't you?" "Nope." Dolores took a slow, deliberate step forward, the sharp click of her heels punctuating the silence. She lifted Lowell's chin with a single finger. She purred, "You might have them fooled, but you can't fool me." Lowell raised his head and locked eyes with Dolores, her smile laced with mischief. He replied sharply, "Dolores, mind your own affairs. Push me, and you'll regret it." Dolores quirked an eyebrow and teased, "Are you hinting you've got a girlfriend? What sort of woman has caught your eye?" Lowell's laugh was cold and biting. "That's none of your concern. Best of luck with your plan of snaring Shaun." With those words, he gathered his documents and left the office. He departed hastily, burdened with a meeting and no tto indulge her nonsense.

The sound of Tracy's humming floated through the door, and her melody chased away the shadows in his heart. He entered the room and wrapped her in an embrace.
He nestled his face in her neck, inhaling deeply, and asked, "What has made you so joyful today?" "I was just pondering how close we are to our special day," Tracy hummed in response.
Lowell, caught off guard, exclaimed, “Really? It seemed much further away!" Tracy's smile was tinged with sympathy. "I hate to see you wait. It won't be long now until we can share our joy openly with everyone." His heart sank at her words, a shadow cast over his fleeting joy. How would he break the news to his parents? They had dreams of him marrying into wealth to boost the family's fortunes. In his family's eyes, love was secondary to wealth—a bitter truth, as the two seldom mingled.
