If she recalled correctly, he was the ridiculously energetic friend who had been hyping up the crowd at Sebastian's birthday bash.

But that night, the guy had been decked out in a blinding silver suit covered in rhinestones that caught every light, paired with an indescribably flamboyant hairstyle. It was a stark contrast to the polished, impeccably groomed young entrepreneur she saw today. Elara hadn't recognized his face at all; it was only the cadence of his voice that triggered her memory.

"Yeah, that's him," Sebastian admitted freely, seeing no reason to hide it.

Elara nodded and went back to sipping her soup, dropping the subject.

Sebastian wasn't exactly the type to gossip about his social circle anyway, so the conversation naturally faded out.

Sebastian picked up his spoon and joined the meal, masking a flare of internal frustration.

Had he been too subtle?

Did Elara really just brush past his deliberately intimate nickname without a second thought!

Sebastian internally reviewed his performance. Had his tone not been tender enough? Not suggestive enough?

Or had he played the role of the respectful, well-behaved family friend for so long that she was fundamentally incapable of viewing him as a grown man?

Suddenly, the world-class chicken soup tasted like ash in his mouth.

The label of a younger friend gave him an unbreakable excuse to stay by Elara's side. It allowed him privileges and closeness that an ordinary acquaintance could never dream of.

But it was a double-edged sword. That very label drew an invisible, impenetrable line between them. Even when he tried to step over it, she only ever saw a younger brother dropping by for a visit, rather than an exceptional, highly eligible man.

How utterly maddening.

Sebastian chewed his food mechanically, his mind churning.

Getting Elara to accept him wasn't his biggest hurdle right now; his biggest hurdle was getting Elara to even realize he was a viable option in the dating pool!
