Catherine frowned. She placed the supplements she brought on the bedside table. "Chester is a good friend, but if he's to be a husband or a boyfriend, I think anyone who falls in love with him will be unlucky. He's not a person who’ll remain loyal to any woman."
Freya said, "But hasn't he already decided to marry Cindy?"
"Do you think... Cindy can handle him?" Catherine raised her eyebrows. "If she could, Chester wouldn't be marrying her."
"Don't worry, I never had the thought of being together with him." Eliza raised her head and smiled weakly. "I understand that he just has a temporary interest in m e. Nothing will come out of this even after he gets to have me. Moreover, I don't like him at all."
"Don't worry. I believe Eliza is a cool-headed person. I didn't understand why Chester kept targeting you during the meal last time, but now I understand.
Chester must've been annoyed because he couldn't get you," Freya said with a smile.
Eliza grinned and switched the topic. "I didn't expect you guys to come and visit me. Actually, I—" "We're friends," Freya interrupted her, "I don't know
why, but I thought you felt very familiar the first time I saw you. I think this is what it means to hit it off with someone. Chester did say bad things about you, but making friends is a thing that has to be done through a person's own interactions. No one is more clear than themselves whether that friend is worth making or not."
"Thank you." Eliza's gaze was gentle.
If she had to say who could make her feel a sense of familiarity, it would only be the two people in front of her.
They were her friends in the past too.
"If there are any problems, you can look for us for help anytime," Catherine said, "Shaun is an outstanding lawyer. He has a friend who runs a great law firm. If this case needs to be filed as a lawsuit, you can look for me anytime."
