No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 292

"Yeah, that’s a big love bite! You can bet the girl's got some killer strength to deal with Mr. Collins."

"Or maybe Mr. Collins has the magic touch, keeping the girl excited..."

I was at a loss for words.

These girls seemed pretty clued in, knowing more than a bit about the ways.

"You've got quite the eye for detail," I chuckled awkwardly.

"Mr. Collins wanted us to notice, walking around with his shirt half-open. As if we could look away even if we tried," one of the girls added, elbowing her friend, "Right?"

"Exactly. It wasn't just us. Every girl in the office, even the cleaning ladies, noticed it too."

I didn’t know what to say in response.

"Mr. Collins is usually reserved and barely leaves his office. Today was weird like he was parading around on purpose."

"Do you think he did it to show us?"

"Could be... Maybe he's..." the girl pondered.

"Mr. Collins is such a good man. The more he does this, the more I'm drawn to him."

"It's so loving."
