I could tell she was thinking the wrong thing.
"I mean, I need bodyguards."
Yvonne replied perfunctorily, "I know. I get it."

Liam frowned and said, "Playing hard to get, are you?
"Monica mentioned that you've had a crush on me for a long time, which is why you're holding onto the house, trying to force my hand into marrying you."
