“I’m quite sad that you only just called for me. Didn’t you miss me?”
“It seems like you’ve grown even cheekier since we last met. I heard you were a majestic general, but turns out the rumors weren’t true.”

“And you aren’t hurt anywhere?”
“There wasn’t a single part of my body that wasn’t hurting, but I’m fully healed now.”
“I didn’t hear about you sustaining any injuries.”

“My heart took the biggest blow. I heard you had another fiancé.”
“Adrianne dealt with him.”
