Love Magnet

Dex clenched his left fist in rage.

"Does this little birdie manage a boutique in town?" Dex asked, his voice laced with fury. He knew that the only person responsible for this gossip was Gail. She was the only person who saw him the night he visited her boutique with Phoenix.

"Come on brother, you don't have to be uptight. It doesn't matter who told me. What matters is that my brother was captured with a girl after a long time. I'm so eager to meet this girl who seems to have captured your frigid heart, even though Ashley remains my best choice for you. How about you bring her over when you're coming to the party? Mum and Dad will be attending and it's going to be a beautiful family get-together."

"Diana, I..."

Dex's phone started vibrating indicating that he had another incoming call.

"Phoenix!" Dex's eyes brightened and his sour countenance quickly turned into euphoria.

"Who is Phoenix?" Diana asked from the other end.
