Chapter 163
Marian looked up and flashed Daniel a grin, “My name’s Marian. Please don’t call me anything else, not my cup of tea.”
With that, her smile quickly vanished as she dove back into her phone.
Daniel’s smile froze a tad.
Louis jumped in to smooth things over, “She’s got no memory of her childhood, man. The chick had it rough growing up outside, took us two years of sweet-talking to get her to even peek back home.”
Hearing this, Daniel felt even more for her and didn’t mind Marian’s lack of manners, keeping up his smile he asked, “Got a boyfriend yet, Marian?”
“Nah,” Marian glanced up briefly, “Swamped with studies, dude. No time for boy trouble.”
“This girl’s a bookworm, just graduated from Apex Engineering University, nailed a master’s in architecture.”
Louis couldn’t help puffing up with pride as he rattled off the university name, boasting, “Called it when she was a tot, said she was brainy material. Quiet, diligent, focused, and smart as a whip, knew she’d land in a top school and she did!”
Daniel had been to that uni with Louis back in the day but still couldn’t help marveling, “That’s seriously badass.”
He was genuinely stoked for Yolanda.
He’d been rooting for Yolanda since she was a kid.
Finally, Marian looked up again, “Thanks.”
Her smile this time held a genuine spark.
That bit of sincerity touched Daniel, and he couldn’t help but steer the convo back to matters of the heart, “Got anyone you fancy, Marian?”
“Nope,” Marian answered straight-up, without a trace of shyness or discomfort.
Louis seized the moment to bring up Brandon, “Brandon still flying solo?”
Patricia jumped in, “Yup, still on the market, Heard from Kent he’s thinking about trying his luck at matchmaking events.”
“Why bother with matchmaking?” Louis looked at Marian, “Both unattached, childhood friends, families know each other inside out, same age range, might as well play Cupid, right?”
“Wha?” Marian looked at Louis, surprised, “Is that really cool?”
Thinking she was just playing hard to get, Louis reassured her, “Just hang out, see if it clicks. No matchmaking, no wedding bells, no pressure.”
Daniel was all for Louis’ idea.
