'For all I know, Autumn Shelby is nestled in Seth Quinn's arms right now, leaning close to his ear and listening to our conversation.'
Since they were waiting for her answer, she couldn't afford to lose face or give them the mistaken impression that she was trying to cling to Seth Quinn.
At that thought, Clara Grant didn't hesitate any longer. "There's no need for that. I'll pay for myself."
Seth Quinn was clearly delighted she had agreed to meet tomorrow. His voice grew a bit lighter, a smile in his tone as he said, "Alright then. I'll have Chase Childs pick you up tomorrow."
"Fine!" Clara Grant didn't hesitate or refuse this time. 'It's not like they'll be driving me around again in the future. Why be so difficult over this last time or two?'
'If I refused, it would just make Autumn Shelby think I'm petty and look down on me even more.'
"Well... we'll talk when we meet tomorrow," Seth Quinn added with a smile, pleased by her prompt agreement.
