Chapter 1472:

A light of realization flickered across Freda’s face. “Oh, I see now!” However, her moment of clarity was short-lived as her shoulders sagged again, and a sigh of defeat escaped her. “But he’s just so elusive!” she lamented. “I can’t even get his number! How am I supposed to make any progress with him?”

Elyse offered a gentle smile, her voice soothing. “Take a breather, Freda. Gavin doesn’t strike me as the type to be easily charmed. Since you’ve decided to win him over, you’ve got to brace yourself for the challenge.”

Freda flopped onto the sofa, clutching a cushion as though it were her lifeline. Her face twisted in distress, her mind clearly running in circles. Suddenly, her eyes lit up with a spark of realization. “Do you think Gavin and I make a good match?” she blurted out, her tone hopeful yet uncertain.

Elyse stretched out lazily on the sofa, her expression indifferent. “Who knows? I’m not about to fill your head with false hope. What if he stays out of reach?”

Freda groaned, throwing her head back dramatically. “Ugh, he’s impossible! What’s it going to take for me to get his phone number?”

“Easy,” Elyse replied with a sigh, sounding more practical than sympathetic. “Just ask him outright. If he’s willing to share it, that’s a sign he might be interested. If not—well, at least you’ll know where you stand.”
