"True. Otherwise, why would they have divorced?" Yvonne said smoothly.

"My father and Brandon have already met. It seems they Y got along quite well," Chark continued. "Brandon must have mentioned it to you?" Noelle gave a slight nod I'm curious. What's your relationship with Brandon?" Clark asked.
"We're business partners."

"Maybe lunch, but you haven't had dinner yet," Clark countered with a grin.
