"Mari? What are you doing here?" he asked with a frown.
Mari scowled at him, "What do you mean? What am I doing here? At this time of the day, I should be on my way to my office and not here in yours, but here I am because you chose to ghost me and not take my calls. What exactly is your problem?"
Jamal opened his mouth to respond, but Mari raised a finger before he could. "Tell me something, Jamal. Are you in love with me? You can be honest. I can take it."
Jamal eyed her with a look of disgust in his face. "Why would you think such nonsense?"
