Blake remembered, but his memory was still fuzzy. He simply nodded and replied, “I remember. Can I
help you?” He didn’t intend to be overly friendly with someone he didn’t. really know.
“I… “Tahlia thought she looked quite good and was known as a beauty in Bodgow, but why did it mean
nothing to Blake?
“I need to leave soon. Please enjoy your time here, Miss Tahlia.” Blake thought Pearl should almost be
ready.
Tahlia clenched her jaw, psyched herself up, and asked, “I’d like you to be my plus one for tonight’s
wine tasting. Would you like to come with me?”

care about Willow being bullied-she wanted to become Blake’s girlfriend.
“I’m sorry, I already have a plus one.”
Tahlia froze. Who managed to get to him before she did? She couldn’t recall anyone else ever getting
Blake to agree to be their plus one, or it would have been a topic of conversation in their group chat.
Before Tahlia could inquire further, Pearl emerged from the powder room. Her dress accentuated her
curves, and her hair and makeup made her stand out in the crowd.
Tahlia was mesmerized by Pearl’s appearance. She had never seen such a beautiful woman in
Bodgow.
“This is my plus one. I’m sorry,” Blake announced proudly, pleased with how stunning Pearl looked.
“Blakey, don’t let this woman fool you. She’s dressed so provocatively. How could she be a good
woman…” Tahlia began to voice her disapproval. She seethed with jealousy, unable to fathom the

Pearl almost burst out laughing. Why were all the women in Bodgow so domineering but stupid?
“I don’t see Blake defending you. If I’m just an arm candy, then you’re like a stray dog on the roadside,
ignored even when you wag your tail around,” Pearl retorted, her words sharp but devoid of profanity.
Tahlia stomped her foot in frustration, unable to clap back. “You just wait. I won’t let you get away with
this!” She hurled a threat before turning to Blake with a sorrowful expression. ”
Blakey, look at her. She’s so rude.”
“She’s my cousin. Who are you?” Blake said.
“Cousin?” Tahlia’s face twitched, but she quickly put on a cordial smile. “Oh, you’re cousins. I’m sorry, I
thought you were…
Pearl noticed that Tahlia wasn’t done with her pretense, so she scoffed, “Are you going to say you’re
sorry, claim it was all a misunderstanding, and then ask for my forgiveness while offering a gift as a
sign of apology?”
