Shane Caldwell gritted his teeth and said, "You can like Vera Xavier, and I can like her too! Maybe I don't seem as outstanding as you right now, but one day, I will be! So, I absolutely will not give up on Vera Xavier!"

Nathaniel Nathan was a bit surprised by his reaction. In Nathaniel's eyes, this version of Shane Caldwell was simply idiotic, pathetic, and laughable. He had come to help Vera Xavier get rid of a romantic suitor, but now it seemed this particular suitor wasn't even worth his notice.
