Christian noticeably brightened when he saw how amenable Wendy was this time.

"Do you like it?" he asked again.

She had no words for his actions. He was living a lie, nothing more.

Wendy could not help but laugh at his words.

Christian was displeased with Wendy's reaction. He frowned and asked her, "What's so funny?"
