He suggested, "Very well, but you must demonstrate to me that he holds no special place in your life." Gently touching her rosy cheeks, he added, "You know what needs to be done."
Her eyes widened with fear, "What do I have to do?"
"Just mete out the appropriate punishment for his audacity in considering himself your friend," he replied, his calm demeanor stark contrast to the weight of his words. Hearing this, her face drained of color.
