No one tried to stop me or cheer me up. A lot of people, like I said, were ready to kiss Kane's feet. I don't know what it was for. Yes, he's definitely rich, and he's even been seen in the company of the city's head of state more than once. But even if some people were afraid of Kane, or almost exalted him, there were also those who treated him with indifference, considering him an ordinary visitor, who sometimes appeared and did not stay in our town for a long time. But the other part of the people were already respectful of Eddie. His family ranked high among the residents and was also on the council. And me? Even the girls I thought of as buddies saw me as a rival, a competitor. And that day, the opportunity to compete for my ex-fiancé opened up for them. At least dream about it.
