Chapter 260:

Freda received Theo’s call and quickly arranged a meeting place before ending the conversation. Theo, wearing a mask, arrived at the designated spot. Freda was already there, dressed in a light-colored floral-patterned dress, her hair neatly done up, and her makeup subtly applied.

For a moment, Theo mistook her for Elyse. Elyse liked dressing up that way, but it didn’t quite fit Freda. Elyse, with her gentle and easygoing nature, suited such soft styles. Freda, on the other hand, was vibrant and chatty, her usual look more bold and captivating. This subdued style didn’t reflect her true personality.

Looking at Freda, Theo said indifferently, “Miss Jimenez, this outfit doesn’t seem like you. Please change to your usual style.”

Freda felt a wave of embarrassment. She had researched Elyse’s favorite styles and dressed accordingly to impress Theo. However, Theo noticed it immediately and pointed it out directly. Embarrassed and annoyed, Freda forced a smile and asked, “You used to call me Freda. Why have you suddenly started calling me Miss Jimenez?”

After a brief silence, Theo decided to be honest. “I’ve reconsidered everything. I think it’s best we end things and go back to how things were before.”

Surprised, Freda inquired, “Why? Didn’t we agree to date more and see how things go?”
