something... different with Mr.
Rodgers? Maybe she’s pursuing what she truly desires now.” Outside the Hazelnut TCoffee Shop, Elizabeth

I'm really just focusing on my career at the moment.”
“Fine, fine, we'll drop it.
Today's about celebrating your freedom,” Camille responded, her smile radiant and disarming.
