Catherine smiled bitterly. "Didn't the prime minister's wife introduce three excellent men to you? To be honest, those three guys weren't bad. They’re single, decent-looking men who come from good families and have a promising future. Yet, you didn't fancy any of them. Tell me. Where can I find better men for you? There may be very handsome guys, but they might not be reliable, while those with good personalities might not look good." 1
"Am I that picky?" Only then did Freya realize that problem.
"You're not picky." Catherine told her the truth, "It's just that when you have better options before, those who come after will pale in comparison. Do you understand that? With Ryan being a benchmark, your eye for men will only get stricter. But where can I find someone like Ryan who’s rich, handsome, from a prominent family, gentlemanly, elegant, humorous, romantic, wise, and calm? Even if I give Shaun to you, you might not fancy him."

Freya was speechless for some time. The corners of her mouth twitched, and she said, "If Shaun heard what you said, he’d be very sad."
"I'm only telling the truth." Catherine held her coffee and blew on it while smiling.
"Okay." Freya pouted. "Your Shaun is too reserved. I can't handle him."
"Exactly. You can't even accept men who are reserved.” Catherine laughed. "In that case, tell me where I can find other men for you?"
"Ryan isn't that good, okay?" Freya bit her lip discontentedly.
"Maybe. But whether he's good or not, you’re the one who knows best." Catherine pushed a cup of coffee over. "Do you want some?"
"No. My life is bitter enough. I don't want my mouth to be bitter too." Freya left with a frown, feeling distraught.
Catherine sighed once Freya had left.
It seemed that her best friend's love journey was rougher than hers. 2
