Alex remarked without mincing words.
"I had a feeling you would say that. I had already told her father that but he seemed insistent so I decided to help him."
Roberts replied with a sigh.
"Hello, stop talking like I am not standing right here.... Ugh, you know what, I don't even care, do whatever you want... I'm out of here."
Diana remarked in annoyance as she turned to leave.
"Diana, wait... Hear me out."
Roberts remarked but Diana didn't even bother turning to face him.
"Hmm..."
Alex stared at the retreating figure of Diana with a thought before proceeding to speak up.
"Ms. Diana."
