This book was released back when I was trying to get traction on it a very long time ago. I’ve never made a single dime from this company, but they’d like to keep my book forever.

She giggled and, instead of handing me the bouquet, she gave it to her male best friend. Under the bright lights, they became the center of attention.

Even his fans tagged me in posts, mocking, [I told you not to get in the way of our couple, now look at you.] I simply posted on Twitter, [Respect and blessings. Please be locked together forever.]

I told everyone I wasn't taking part in this competition, and it made everyone panic.
