Jake Cooper is a rich, handsome man but an asshole. He treats women like his quests and never fails to satisfy their thirsts. However, he is an arrogant person at work who values nothing more than himself.

Briana turned her head in his direction abruptly, hearing him say so. "Why-Why do you think I won't be?"
"I don't know. You just look.. distant", his face fell as the excitement in his eyes threatened to fade away.
"Oh Ricky, it's nothing like that!", she lied. "I wasn't prepared for all of this!", she said gesturing to their interlocked hands. "I mean, I had no clue you were planning the proposal all this while!", she said, covering his hands with hers.
"I know, I'm sorry!", he said holding tightly onto her hands. "I shouldn't have done this so soon! I mean a hint or something would have been better to know about your feelings, right?", he asked.
"Kind of, but at the end of the day, I'm happy to be with you!", she said.
"Oh really?"

Ricky and Briana turned around, only to find Jake standing right beside their table. He looked at Ricky and then at Briana. They were shocked to see their boss standing right next to them, making them rise to their feet unconsciously.
"Sit sit!", Jake said, as he went around to Briana's side.
They didn't dare to sit as Jake's calmness in situations like these meant the beginning of a huge storm. Jake went around the table, crossing Briana, over to Ricky. He held out his hand to congratulate them.
"Congratulations to the both of you!", he said.
Ricky shifted his gaze between Jake's hand and his face. Having no other option, he hesitantly accepted it.

"Th-thank you, sir..", Ricky stammered unaware that his boss was here all the while.
"I'm happy for the two of you as I already sensed something going on", he said, which sounded more like a taunt to Briana but Ricky..
