Elyse expressed surprise. "Rebekah confessed her love? Did Freddy accept her?"

"Freddy..." Darren's tone carried a mix of emotions. "His intentions were unclear. He didn't outright reject her. Instead, he mentioned needing time to consider, which pleased Rebekah." Perplexed, Darren inquired, "Didn't he harbor dislike toward her? Why didn't he reject her?" Elyse was left speechless, the revelation too startling for an immediate response.

After deliberation, she cautiously suggested, "Perhaps Freddy sought to spare Rebekah public embarrassment? He may have wished to show her some respect, especially in a public setting." Darren remained unconvinced. Having spent ample time gaming with Freddy, he understood Freddy to be resolute and decisive.

To Darren, Freddy's actions hinted at ulterior motives, though he refrained from speculating further.

"You can reach out to Freddy for clarification. We all inquired earlier this afternoon, yet he remained tight-lipped." Darren's mischievous notion sparked.

Elyse's astonishment was palpable. "He didn't tell information from you when you asked him. Do

you suppose he'd divulge anything if I inquired?"

Darren's voice dropped his grin sly. "Perhaps he'd open up to you. Remember when he harbored

feelings for you?"

Elyse felt deeply embarrassed. It seemed like ages ago. How could Darren still recall it?
