Jewel was no stranger to the feeling of envy, but she was grateful she had moved on; otherwise, she might have been green with jealousy over Sophia!
She chuckled softly and asked Jason in a whisper, "Are you absolutely sure Sophia doesn't have any romantic feelings for you?"
Jason nodded somberly, "None at all."
When she had a crush on Robin, she was extremely conscious of how he felt and how she appeared to him. But with Jason, she could show up in pajamas without even washing her face, cracking all sorts of jokes. It was a clear sign she wasn't in love.
Jewel shook her head slowly, "Sometimes, when two people have been close for so long, they start to overlook certain feelings. I think that's what's happening with Sophia!"
Jason's eyes deepened with curiosity, "Like what?"
"She might not even understand her own heart. That's when someone needs to help her see things clearly."
"Huh?" Jason was puzzled.
Jewel sighed, "Considering I once had feelings for you, I guess I'll help you out. I don't want you waiting around for another twenty years!"
Jason gave a wry smile, "How can you help with matters of the heart?"
"I have my ways, but I need your cooperation!" Jewel winked slyly.
"How so?"
With a light laugh, Jewel typed out a message on her phone and showed it to Jason, "Take a look!"
Jason frowned at the message and immediately objected, "No way!"
"Come on, sometimes a girl's heart needs a little nudge to see things clearly. I know better!" Jewel laughed, "If you keep waiting passively like this, you'll be waiting forever. Think about it, do you want to win her heart sooner rather than later?"
Jason took a big gulp of his drink, asking with a furrowed brow, "Are you sure this will work?"
"Absolutely!" Jewel assured him with a confident smile, "Aren't you curious about how Sophia really feels about you?"
Jason replied seriously, "Not bad!"
Jewel didn't have high hopes for a man who had never dated; this was already pretty good.
"Sophia, which model do you think suits this outfit best?" Finnian asked Sophia.
Sophia quickly lowered her gaze, offering a professional opinion, "Let's go with Model Number Two. Their shoulders are more squared, which will perfectly showcase the shoulder design of this outfit."
Misunderstanding the situation, one of Jewel's friends thought she was rekindling an old flame with Jason and immediately seized the opportunity to play a love song, egging them on, "Come on, why don't you and Jewel sing this song together?"
"Sure, I'm up for it!" Jewel said, giving Jason a knowing look.
Jason nodded faintly, "Alright."
The two sat on the couch, beginning their duet of the love song, their voices mingling in the air.
