Taking a visit to her boutique Poppy was impressed at how her employee had kept everything going in her absence. The place was well organized and the income was doing better than expected.
"Wow, Liza. The shop looks amazing and we are turning a great profit. You've done such a great job."
"Well, Mr. Gambino helped. He brought in a couple of employees to help me out. So, tell me again. You weren't really kidnapped? You were with Roman D'Amico this whole time? What about Luke?"
"Well, it's personal. But yes, Roman and I… actually... I didn't even know if there is a Roman and I. Luke and I are just friends now."
As the young woman folded a blouse she looked concerned. "You're not dating either of them?"
"No. It's complicated."
"Ms. Ricci, I hope you don't mind me saying, but you're nothing like people say. I expected you to be mean and bossy. It's like the person I see is different from the woman people say you are."
