"Let's not talk about James. I want to know why you asked me out today," Summer said. "I wanted to know if you were the one who convinced James and Eleanor to set me up on a blind date with Kelly." "Yes, I did," Summer admitted honestly. Zach would find out the truth sooner or later. As such, it would be better to acknowledge that openly. However, Zach looked bitter. "Why did you do that?" "I wanted to find a blind date for my friend, and you were a suitable candidate." "Then, do you know about my past?" "Yes." Summer knew about Zach's last relationship. He'd stopped dating after he'd suffered heartbreak. It seemed that he couldn't forget his previous relationship. Since they were on that topic, Summer decided to counsel him. "You aren't willing to date because you can't forget Felicia. This is a good opportunity to try dating again. "My friend, Kelly, is pretty and caring. She's definitely your ideal type. Why don't you make use of this opportunity?"After
Zach forced himself to calm down because he didn't want to be affected by Summer's words. "I can't agree to this, Summer. Even if I date your friend, I still won't like her. This is a waste of time for everyone." "Have you met Kelly? If you haven't met her yet, how would you know that it won't work out?" Summer asked patiently. She thought that Zach was a good person. He was loyal to his friends, loved his family members, and was wealthy and handsome. He was even better than James in certain aspects. As such, Summer couldn't let the matter rest. She couldn't give someone else the opportunity to date him and wanted to introduce him to Kelly. However, Zach simply ignored Summer and closed his eyes silently. He looked very irritated. But Summer didn't care. She would still say what she wanted to. "You're in a terrible situation now, Zach. You're closing off your heart to others. If you aren't willing to take this step, you'll stay single forever," Summer said loudly.
Yolanda frowned uncomfortably. It seemed that she was reluctant to discuss the subject. Zach must have told her many bad things about Summer. Since Summer had already figured that out, she didn't probe further and waved her hands dismissively. Then, she asked, "Why did you want to talk to me?""May I call you Summie? You can call me Yola," Yolanda asked gently. This gave Summer the impression that Yolanda was a friendly and gentle person.Yolanda continued, "Summie, I've got nothing much to say to you. I just hope that you won't make things difficult for Zach again.""Make things difficult for Zach?" Summer felt extremely wronged. When had she made things difficult for him?"You're forcing Zach to go on a blind date, but he isn't ready to date in this state.""He's already so old. Why isn't he prepared to date again? Is he going to wait until he's 50 years old before he starts dating again?" Summer retorted.At the same time, she realized that Yolanda and Zach had an interest
Summer remained seated as she fell into thought. Suddenly, she realized that Yolanda seemed to have feelings for Zach.But she wasn't certain about it; it was just her intuition. So, she asked, "Yola, what kind of person do you think Zach is?" "He's a good man. Not only is he gentle and caring, but he also doesn't put on airs, even though he's from a wealthy family," Yolanda answered without hesitation. Summer had expected such an answer. She inquired, "Do you like Zach?"Yolanda's answer wasn't that straightforward this time. She paused, then blushed. She looked very reserved and thought for a while before she said, "Yes. I like him as a friend.""Do you like him romantically? Do you love him?"After hearing that, Yolanda placed her hands on the sides of her seat and tensed up. She looked very anxious. Perhaps she'd realized that something was off with her own expression, so she tried to look relaxed. "No. Summie, you must have misunderstood me. Why would I love him? Be
"Yola has been close friends with Zach since they were young. When they were still teenagers, Zach would often take us out to drink coffee and eat snacks.""Us?" Summer listened carefully. This meant that, apart from James and Zach, other people knew Yolanda. James replied, "Yes. Yola is our friend. Keith and Bradly know her as well. However, she's different from us. She comes from an ordinary family background. "But we liked her because she was kind, caring, and gentle. Since everyone liked to drink coffee, she decided to open a café."Then, he slowly told Summer about Yolanda and his friends. Whenever they had any problems in the past, all of them would meet to talk about them. They would also often drive to the beach and play. They even went overseas behind their parents' backs. It seemed that the heirs of the four major prestigious families were very close to Yolanda. After Summer heard that, she felt envious because their friendship seemed like the plot of Boys Over Flo
If it was the second possibility, it would be alright. However, Summer felt that the first probability seemed more likely. Zach was clearly annoyed and wanted to settle the issue quickly.Either way, Summer called Kelly and told her about it after talking with James. Meanwhile, Kelly was very excited. She kept asking Summer if it was real and asked the latter to come to her house to dress her up the day after the next.Summer agreed to do so. She decided to go over to Kelly's house to talk to her on the day of the blind date. After all, it was very important and concerned Kelly's happiness. As such, Summer cared a lot about it. However, she was still bothered about Yolanda's and Zach's relationship. Therefore, she called Eleanor and invited her over to the Quigley residence to talk about it the next day. …At noon the next day, Eleanor told Caroline that she was teaching Summer embroidery. Then, she met Summer in the study. Summer went straight to the point. "What do you kno
In the end, Eleanor could only reply, "Fine. I'll tell you everything."She told Summer about Yolanda and Zach's relationship. In the past, they had a situationship that had never been made official before. It wasn't even true love. Their relationship had been very lukewarm, and they couldn't even be considered lovers. Yolanda and Zach had known each other since they were young. However, they had only liked each other platonically when they were young. After that, Zach had dated Felicia for a long time. During that relationship, he'd suffered a lot. Whenever he'd been upset, he'd shared it with Yolanda. Therefore, she stayed beside him as a friend. However, their friendship hadn't lasted for long. When Zach had been 18 years old, he'd broken up with Felicia for the first time, which had a great impact on him.During that time, he'd invited Yolanda on a trip overseas as he dealt with his heartbreak. The two of them had played in Eblicea. They skied, went to Fravia to look at t
Eleanor explained, "If, like you said, Zach was unwilling to give up on Felicia because he was so stubborn, why would he waste so much time trying to reconcile with her? He continued to pursue her, even though she had new boyfriends.""That makes sense." Summer agreed. Zach was the heir of one of the four major prestigious families, so he was very mature. He wouldn't be so childish and waste so much time just because he felt aggrieved. Eleanor wanted to protect Zach. She replied firmly, "Zach is very faithful. In the past, he was sad for a long time whenever his pets died. You can't wrongly accuse him, Summer."Summer wanted to shout, "Oh, heavens. When did I wrongly accuse Zach?" But she decided to move on from the topic because she had to consider something carefully. Yolanda liked Zach, but how did he feel about her?As such, she asked Eleanor the same question, but the latter had no answer for that."I think Zach likes Yola as a friend. After all, though they keep in cont
