“Why are you looking at me like that, Mr. York?” Abby asked, noticing Evan’s lingering gaze. 
Evan opened his mouth to respond, but before he could say a word, Abby’s phone buzzed on the desk. She glanced at the caller ID—her mother. 
Abby sighed and picked up. “Mom, is something wrong?” 
It wasn’t like her parents to call during work hours unless it was urgent. 
“Are you free this weekend?” Mrs. Du asked directly. 
“What’s going on?” Abby replied cautiously. 
“Just tell me first if you’re free. I need you to do something.” 
“If it’s not mandatory, Mom, I’d rather not. I already have a client meeting scheduled this weekend,” Abby said, keeping her tone professional. 
Mrs. Du scoffed. “Meeting clients on the weekend? Is the Du Group in such dire need of business that you can’t even take a day off?” 
Abby winced at the subtle rebuke. She knew her work habits frustrated her mother. Most days, Abby was out the door before sunrise and back well after her parents had gone to bed. Even though they lived under the same roof, they rarely saw one another. 
“Mom, just tell me what you need. If it’s important, I’ll try to rearrange my schedule,” Abby said, a tinge of guilt creeping into her voice. 
Her mother didn’t ask for favors often, and refusing outright made Abby feel like she was letting her down. 
Mrs. Du’s voice softened. “It’ll only take one morning. My godson is flying back from abroad this weekend, and I want you to pick him up from the airport. He’s practically family—your brother, after all.” 
Abby’s brow furrowed. “Are you talking about Spencer?” 
Evan, who had been quietly observing, perked up at the mention of the name. His ears almost visibly twitched, like a rabbit sensing danger. 
“You only have one godbrother. Of course, I mean Spencer,” Mrs. Du confirmed. 
“And what about Victoria? Is she coming back too?” Abby asked. Victoria was her godsister, someone she’d grown up with but rarely saw since both Victoria and Spencer had been sent abroad for school. 
“No, just Spencer this time. His company is assigning him to oversee all their domestic operations, so he’ll be staying for a while.” Mrs. Du paused, then added with a playful tone, “You two haven’t seen each other in ages. It’s the perfect opportunity to catch up. He’s matured so much—steady, successful, handsome, and still single. A perfect match for you, don’t you think?” 
Abby’s eyebrows shot up. “Mom…” she began, already suspecting where this was heading. 
Her mother pressed on, ignoring the warning in Abby’s tone. “Your aunt and I have been thinking about this for a while. Spencer would make an excellent husband for you. He’s just as impressive as that York boy, maybe even more. But unlike Evan, Spencer’s always cared for you deeply. It wouldn’t take much for the two of you to move from friends to lovers. And who knows, maybe even marriage!” 
Abby’s suspicion was confirmed. Her mother was playing matchmaker. 
Evan, meanwhile, sat frozen, every word slicing through his composure like a knife. Abby’s mother clearly wasn’t subtle about her disdain for him—or her preference for Spencer.
