Harvey froze, then quickly waved his hands in dismissal. "No, no! I just saw how pretty you were...and I couldn't help myself."
He pointed to his red hoodie and Bonnie's red trench coat as he said this. "Look, pretty lady, we even have the same favorite colors. This must be fate!”
Bonnie glanced at the boy with a helpless look and said, "What do you know about colors? There are different shades of reds. Just because two things are red doesn’t mean they're the same, your-''
Before she could finish her sentence, however...
She realized that the shade of red on the boy's hoodie was identical to that of her trench coat!
She loved this shade of red and had specially requested to get this color made in different styles of clothing.
Never had she expected to see the exact same color on a young boy!
Despite being shocked, Bonnie could not help pursing her lips in disapproval. "This is just a coincidence."
"No, it's not. I love this color, and I had this hoodie made specially!" Harvey grinned at her and added," Pretty lady, have you ever seen Mr. Landry before? Do you think he’s handsome? Would you consider
becoming Mr. Landry’s wife? He’s not bad at all, why don't you take that into consideration?"
Bonnie shot him another helpless glance and replied," I'm a proud woman. Your dad will never match up to m e.” i
"Is that so?" All of a sudden, a cold male voice rang out from behind her.
Bonnie furrowed her brows and glanced in the direction of the voice.
Behind her, a tall, slender man was leaning against the trunk of a maple tree, staring at her impassively." Ms. Craig is indeed a proud woman."
As he said this, he gave her a once over and added," Well, even if you begged me, I still wouldn't date a woman like you."
