Before either woman could say anything, Lance asked dryly, “A wingman?
Woo him?”
Bettie swallowed and turned her head to glower at him.
“Is there any problem?”
Lance smiled at her toothily.
“You can woo him now if you want. I will be your wingman.”
Bettie shook her head quickly.
“That’s unnecessary...”

“I’ll call him right now and tell him that you want to woo him.”
Lance took out his phone and pretended to call Blayze.
“No!” Bettie rushed toward him with the intention of taking his phone away before he could call Blayze.
In her mad dash to stop him, she didn’t realize that Lance had stretched out his leg.
Bettie stumbled and would have fallen if Lance hadn’t wrapped his arms around her.
Shocked at her fall, Bettie looked up at Lance and the two of them were lost in each other’s gaze.
Sabrina coughed and suddenly announced, “Mr. Carter, Bettie and I will take a taxi home. Have a good day.”
The sound of Sabrina’s voice broke the spell Bettie had fallen under.
Turning red, she stumbled away from him and said hastily, “Bye!”
Lance was left staring at her departing back in shock.
“Why are you still here?” Bettie demanded a while later.
Lance arched a brow at her.
“You haven’t left either.”
“We are waiting for the taxi,” Bettie huffed and rolled her eyes at him.
“I’m also waiting for the taxi.”
Bettie had no witty reply to that statement, so she turned her face away from Lance and pretended he wasn’t there.
