Her stomach numbled. Disinterested in engaging with William, she grabbed a sandwich from the table and started eating.

Why did it seem Eke William was starting to act like Charles lately? Charles sent flowers, so william followed suit, Charles was smooth-talking, so Wilm started cracking jokes, Charles brought her breakfast, and now William was taking her out to eat These paralel seemed far-fetched and even ridiculous.

But William had always been lood, seeing himself as superior, arrogantly confident-how could he possibly be mimicking someone else? He was too unique. Even if someone tried to copy him, it would be an insult, let alone the other way around. Emelie couldn't shake this peculiar feeling.
