York let out a low chuckle, his eyes scanning the neon-lit street before turning back to his friends. "That time at the hotel, you really pulled me out of a tight spot. I'm someone who believes in repaying favors. Even though you and Murray called it quits, I owe you one, and I intend to pay it back."

He had been outside the bar, puffing away on a couple of cigarettes for a good twenty minutes. Had it never crossed Roseanne's mind to just give him a call directly?

Cliff had made it clear; he was the one with the connections!

And not just any connections, but top-notch ones!

Why couldn't Roseanne see it?

Was she looking down on him?

York couldn't help but curl his lip in disdain, "Looking for a reliable editor, right? I'll hook you up in a bit."

Roseanne wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth, nor was she the type to play the saint.

When opportunity was knocking at her door, only a fool would turn it away!

"Thanks."

"Just returning a favor."

After hanging up, York immediately went on to find the editor's contact on WhatsApp, ready to connect him with Roseanne.

Suddenly, he realized-

He didn't have Roseanne's WhatsApp!

He dialed her number, "So, uh... let's connect on WhatsApp. Don't worry, I'm not some creep like Corley, hitting on my buddy's ex. If it makes you uncomfortable, I'll just send you the contact info, and you can delete me afterward." Roseanne replied, "Accepted."
