he said, a smirk evident in the timbre of his tone. I snorted, rolling my eyes in disbelief. "Oh, great. Another one who thinks I'm cute when I'm being feisty. You’re all so original," I retorted, trying to mask my intrigue with sarcasm. The annoyance I felt was tempered by the flicker of curiosity ignited by his unexpected compliment.

I rub my eyes with the back of my hand. Unbelievable! The prank has backfired, drenching me completely. However, of the room echoes with laughter—my sons are doubled over, and I can't help but join in. Amidst our shared mirth, it's clear that their companionship outweighs any inconvenience. These two troublemakers may seem worthless, but to me, they're priceless, worth more than any treasure this land can offer.

I said in an amused tone, and he frowned in annoyance. Sexy Guy is quite the charmer, my she-wolf said, amused by his reaction. "I didn't know you were vindictive," he said, and I didn't help but smile. "I'm not vindictive; I'm reciprocal with how people treat me," I replied graciously, and that made him laugh. "Did I treat you that badly yesterday?" "Am I treating you badly?" I asked him, pretending to be offended, and he smiled as he realized I was making fun of him.

He forced a smile on his face, the atmosphere between us was super awkward. "What made you think it has anything to do with you? Unless you did something behind my back. What did you do?" I playfully narrowed my eyes at him. Xander rolled his eyes at me. "You are imagining things. The only thing I do behind your back is admire that fine ass of yours." He teased me with a boyish grin. God my face flushed red imagining Xander admiring my butt. Damn, he knew how to mess with my head. "Now you are funny, but there is something I do want for my birthday," I mentioned, and he narrowed his eyes at me.

Which is why I’d only consider it for someone who’s been significantly helpful to the case. ‘So if I don’t play ball, I can kiss my money goodbye. That’s what you are saying.’ He leaned back, the barest twitch of a smirk appearing. ‘I believe the phrase is, “You scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours.”’ It didn’t take me long to decide. ‘What do you need me to do?’

Neha said, in an annoyed tone while he was still lost in looking at Sneha that he spoke without thinking. "The road is ahead but the destination is behind." He spoke with a tiny smile, lurking on his lips, making Neha clap her hand sarcastically with a wide smile. "What a caption you said for I*******m, nice one!" She sarcastically said and he came out of his la la land. "I mean, I was looking behind because we have to take a u-turn!" He slyly lied but it wasn't gonna work on Neha as she would now, enjoy teasing him like that.

How didn’t I notice his perfect teeth until now? “Thank you, M,” I gave him a nod, hugging my torso to keep the warmth. “M and M are back together, huh?” He used an old inside joke we made when we were kids, using our names and candy. “Who would have thought that the big city would make you even cuter?” Oh, God! A compliment already?

Sarcasm evident in my words *Just hurry up* *Fine* I replied and as I was about to keep my phone back into its rightful place I bumped into someone and my hot cocoa slipped from my hand unto the floor "We have to stop meeting like this cupcake" Only one human being in the world called me that. "Sorry about your hot cocoa though. At least it didn't spill all over your shirt" he said with an amused look on his charming face. Maybe if I ignore him he'll go away

Note the sarcasm. "Why don't you just retrieve the ring from your left trouser pocket, put in on then go back home to your wife and make more babies" I advice and he shamefully gets up from his seat and leaves the snack.

This. “Oh, lucky you, he just warned you. And stupid of hell are you both, to not listen. First, in bloody hell, we never asked for your "help". You call that help? Both of you predominantly abased, abashed, gasconaded, and impertinently intermeddled to people's business. Secondly do you even know the phrase "friendly competition", where the word "equality" and "fun" lies? I have way more to list down everything I can ever think of something my friends got that is way more something to be boastful about. Go to school again. Learn to read dictionaries and thesauruses,” I said. “Oof roasted.” Levine, Hux, and Mich chuckled.
