Chapter 4 - Chapter 3: Where's My Oscar? 

Stepping into the small but cozy cafe, Ray said playfully:

"My lovely Jill, have you given any more thought to my proposal? Leave your old man and run away with me?"

"Sorry, kid, I'm flattered by the attention, but I have absolutely no desire to end up in prison in my old age. Besides, I don't think your mom would be too thrilled to find out her daughter-in-law is several times older than she is. And my old man suits me just fine," Jill replied.

"Boss, your words are breaking my heart," Ray said, clutching his chest.

Hearing clapping behind him, he spun around to face his unexpected audience with surprising agility for his size and took a bow.

The handsome, tall blond standing on the left—dubbed "Prince Charming" by the cafe staff on Ray's initiative—remarked:

"Not bad, but you overdid it a bit at the end."

The towering man in the middle, well over two meters tall, looked at Ray and said:

"You're entirely too full of life, trying to seduce my wife."

"Take it easy, old man. You all just saw your wife shoot me down. Besides, we all know I lack the skills to satisfy all of your wife's needs. And considering she managed to resist my stunning looks and charm, you can rest assured of her fidelity," Ray replied.

His words left not only the delicate girl with the pretty face on the right blushing, but Frank and Jill reddened as well, while "Prince Charming" simply smiled.

Quickly composing herself, Jill said:

"That was fun, but it's time we got to work."
