You will pay to keep me quiet and then you will give me the divorce in installments I'm not made of money.

The agency accounts are improving, I saw them for myself.

Note for all.

Don't sake have pity you brought him here just for this.

It's always best to do a little background research.

Whatever would he think of you? This simple mechanic man accepting his reign under false pretenses, even if it is a counterfeit, what cubic zirconium a fake diamond for a fake engagement? Remember.

Did you decide who's home to live in I? Think, madam, was a pretty good idea and did you celebrate after maha-mantra was unwell and we whatever you? We are the latest victims, any Cali, Hill breakings does she know, I, phoned him and left a message and no reply.

We think the same.

It's ever since she became engaged to you dramatically.

Do you think she has cold feet? Mara Musa is very deep.

That's why she's a good detective? Who knows what she's thinking have you got any idea where she could be I have and when you find her bring her back here and make her eat this soup daddy? It's me, precious I have done a foolish thing.

Did I have agreed to marry her good man when I am still married to a bad one.

Why would I do it? I will stay here.

It's as I thought she's unsure about me.

She is nothing but good to say about you and about normality, nothing but bed.

Yes, so why is she still playing his records, perhaps she's putting something behind him once and for all? It's because she has such strong feelings for him.

Strong feelings of hatred, strong feelings are strong feelings, but for me strong feelings of love.
