Halle ignored the fake killing intent in Ayla’s eyes and smiled like a cat. “Why would I tell you? You told me yourself that you were not interested in Draven. If I said it, you would just overthink.” Her gaze turned teasing. “Besides, you and Draven get along pretty well. He even picked fish bones for you himself. To me, that is total husband behavior. I thought you would get it.”

“He does that for James too.” That was why Ayla had always treated Draven’s kindness as something he did for friends. It was not until Melody showed up that she noticed the difference.

Halle rolled her eyes hard. “Ms. Keaton, are you made of wood?”

After that reminder, Ayla finally recalled many small details. She really had been slow.

A rare look of confusion crossed Ayla’s face. “I am pretending to be his girlfriend to fool Kayla. What do I do next?”

Halle was shocked by the words pretend girlfriend, then complained. “If it were me, the moment Draven asked for a fake date, I would have known he liked me.”

“There was context,” Ayla said. “There was misleading information and a lot of gray areas.”

“Fine. Forget the past. Let’s talk about now.” Halle blinked and looked at Ayla, whom she adored, then thought of Draven’s background and looks. The two of them really matched.

She spoke naturally, trying to bring them together. “If you like him, then be with him. If you do not like him, just act like you do not know and keep spending time with him. Spend enough time together and feelings might grow. Then you can be together.”

“Either way, that ends with being together.”

“That’s because it is Draven. If it were someone se, I might not even like him, let alone tell my best friend to pick trash.”

“So you rate him that highly? You think Draven worth it?” Ayla asked.

“Don’t ask me. Ask yourself. If Draven were not worth it, you probably could not even be friends with him.”

Halle smiled even more knowingly. “The fact that you two got this far was also your choice, right?”

Ayla fell silent. The answer was obvious.

Draven was worth it.

Halle laughed. “You cannot decide right now because it all came too suddenly. You were not ready. It is simple. Keep spending time with him. If you feel nothing, say it clearly. If you like him, turning fake dating into real dating would be great. Until there is a result, you are still fake dating anyway. You cannot break it off right away, right?”

“That makes sense,” Ayla said. “Okay.”

That was that.

There was no better way to face Draven’s feelings.

This overseas business trip let Ayla and Halle see the most cutting edge AI exhibition. They also recruited an engineer for ZeitTech. After a very full schedule, they landed in Aqualith.

Last time Ayla came here, she was with Draven, and a lot happened.

This time, nothing happened.

Everything went smoothly.

After work was done, colleagues in Aqualith suggested going out for fun. Ayla and Halle still had time, so they agreed and followed them to a flashy entertainment venue.

The place was famous and popular with many wealthy ladies in Aqualith.

That night, a well known socialite was hosting a birthday party. It was not fully booked, so there were still seats available.

Halfway through the night, Ayla unexpectedly ran into Winnie.

She was the famous model often seen by Shawn’s side. Ayla had once misunderstood something between Winnie and Draven, and old memories resurfaced.

Only then did Ayla understand that Draven’s anger back then was not just a simple misunderstanding. He did not want her to think he could like other women.

Draven’s thoughts were truly delicate.

Winnie greeted her warmly. “Ms. Keaton, congratulations on your rebirth.”

The executive who came with Ayla and Halle was named Jackson Pierce. He was the Asia Pacific CEO of an overseas tech company.

He recognized Winnie as someone connected to Shawn and could not help but look at Ayla with interest.

He met Halle at a high society gala. They communicated well and had overlapping business. interests, so they exchanged contacts. They talked a lot that day. Even though Halle did most of the talking, Ayla’s brief but clear professional insights still impressed him. She was clearly. top-tier talent.

Jackson was already curious about Ayla. He did not expect her to have connections even he could not reach, the Jackmans.

Winnie gave Ayla a big hug and looked her over. Wow, you look amazing.”

Winnie was genuinely happy about Ayla’s divorce.

Ayla did not talk much, but that did not mean she lacked social skills. She responded warmly.

After all, Winnie had wished her a smooth divorce on the very day it happened.

Halle glanced at Ayla.

Such a flirt.

She squeezed in right away and started chatting enthusiastically with Winnie.
