"Chloe, I can tell you''re sincere. Otherwise, why would we promise to treat you to a meal? You won''t look down on us no matter what we eat, even if it''s just pickles. That''s the Chloe we know." Theo spoke with a hint of excitement.


    "Of course not! Haven''t you seen me during the early days of my startup? In today''s market, it''s all aboutworking. That''s how you get things done. What''s there to look down on?" I replied in a rxed tone. Theo''s sincerity had won me over.


    "You''re someone who speaks the truth and gets things done. That''s precisely what we appreciate about you. In the hearts of our ssmates, you''ve always been like a goddess."


    I smiled contentedly. "Really?"


    "Yes! It''s a pity things turned out this way between you and Matthew. If only it had worked out differently," he said with a touch of regret. "Among our ssmates, you two getting together, and this being the result... well!"


    Theo seemed hesitant, as if afraid to touch on a sensitive topic.


    "In fact, I used to keep in touch with Matthew. Back then, a few of us guys would often hang out together and share our thoughts. Butter, when Matthew rose to sess, he distanced himself from us.


    "So, the chances of seeing you diminished, but we''ve always kept an eye on your situation. We didn''t expect things to get soplicated between you two. Well, actually, that''s not too bad. He doesn''t deserve you."

    I knew I had hurt Ryan, who had been by my side during those times.


    "I''m not trying to gossip, but that''s what everyone says."


    Theo spread his hands, looking at me as he continued, "Back then, when we learned about your situation, we were all furious. You might not know, but we even

    As Theo spoke, he chuckled to himself, looking at me. "Maybe I''ve said too much? Haha..." "No, that''s what ssmates should be like. I didn''t expect that I had such a supportive group." It gave me a sense of warmth.


    "Yeah, let''s get together. I''m going to the capital tomorrow and might not return for two days. So, whenever you guys want to meet, just pick a time that works after I return." en.swhovels


    "Okay, I won''t keep you any longer. Chloe, don''t worry about Beatrice''s situation. I''ll take care of it for you! If possible, when I see her, I''ll let her know you miss her and wanther toe see you," Theo assured me.


    "I''d love to see her too, as long as we find her." I quickly expressed my thoughts.
