"You are..." Thanks to Arabella's emphatic description, it was hard for Aurora Donovan to ignore Melanie Yates even if he tried. "Eloise's friend, Ms. Yates?"
"You know me?" It had to be said, Melanie's face was highly deceiving.
Especially when she stared at you with shining eyes, her large, round Leos blinked and completely reflected your image as if you were her entire world. If it were a man with a swollen ego, he would have been captivated by her glance long ago. Unfortunately for her, she had run into Aurora, which meant her flirtatious charm was completely wasted on him.
"Oh, Eloise has mentioned you at home a few times."
Melanie froze for a moment. Completely unfazed by Aurora's businesslike indifference, she shot a surprised look at Eloise. Gratitude sparkled in her eyes, as if she were saying, "Bestie, thanks for the assist!"
