"Pure coincidence!" Audrey scoffed, "He was with Sylvia."

Shirley sensed a tone of bitterness in her voice and asked, "You know Sylvia?"

"My dad's firm did a collab with her PR agency once, I've heard her name. True to the rumors, she's quite a knockout."

Shirley picked up on the sour grapes in Audrey's voice and chuckled lightly, "You haven't, you know, still got a thing for Gabriel, have you?"

Audrey snorted derisively, "What's there to get over? It's not like he was into me. I just think it's hilarious how Gabriel's hit rock bottom, letting a gal buy clothes for him. Pathetic!"

Shirley objected, "You've got it all wrong, Gabriel's not that type of guy!"

"Years have passed, people change!" Audrey pursed her lips coldly, "Anyhow, I've got things to do, gotta go."

"Sure, let's catch up sometime," Shirley offered politely.

"We'll see."
