?<strong>Chapter 412:</strong>


    Elyse, feeling powerless, asked, “Do you happen to know that man’s name? If you’re interested in him, I can help you pursue him.”


    Fiona let out a sigh and replied, “I asked him, but he refused to disclose his name. He said he just saved me for no reason.”


    Pausing for a moment, she added admiringly, “He was undeniably awesome.”


    Elyse’s lips twitched, unsure of how to respond.


    Fiona admitted with frustration, “I should’ve been more assertive yesterday. Now I don’t even know his name. Finding him again might prove difficult.”


    “There could be an opportunity in the future. Perhaps he works nearby,” Elyse reassured her.


    Fiona nodded. “You’re right.”


    Then Elyse resumed ying the violin and urged, “Fiona, let’s keep practicing. If Gavines back and sees we’ve been cking off, he’ll make us practice for a longer time.”


    Fiona nodded. “Let’s begin. We can’t afford to be caught in the wrong.”


    Theo sat in his office, attentively listening to the manager’s report. Suddenly, his assistant, Jaime Cruz, rushed in and whispered something urgently into his ear.


    Furrowing his brow, Theo raised his hand, interrupting the manager mid-sentence. “Alright, proceed as discussed. You may leave first.”


    Step into fiction with galnovels .


    The manager nodded and exited the room.


    Turning to Jaime, Theo asked, “Is it true that Elyse will be participating in thatpetition tomorrow?”


    Jaime replied, “Yes, I’ve looked into it. She will bepeting, and I’ve made arrangements for someone to secure front-row tickets. We’ll have them.”


    Theo nodded thoughtfully before expressing his confusion, “Then why did you appear so concerned when you entered? Isn’t acquiring front-row tickets a positive development?”


    Jaime’s expression turned bitter. “Well, just as I entered, I received word that your mother wants you to apany Miss Jimenez. Apparently, she’s been in a foul moodtely.”


    Theo scoffed, “Asking me to coax Freda? Hasn’t she given up yet? Why force a connection with the Jimenez family through marriage?”


    Jaime sighed helplessly, “I wish I knew. But your mother insisted that you mustply, or else she’ll have you transferred abroad, only allowing you to return after five years.”


    Theo sneered once more, his eyes brimming with disdain. Since Theo was Zandra’s only son, it was out of the question for her to hand thepany over to anyone else. However, she didn’t want him to pursue Elyse, so she decided to transfer him abroad.


    Theo acknowledged that it was a clever strategy. At least it would force him to take matters seriously.


    After a moment of quick thinking, he instructed, “Go ahead and secure the tickets for tomorrow.”


    Jaime was taken aback. “Mr. Ward, do you intend to take Miss Jimenez to watch Ms. Lloyd’s performance?”


    Theo replied casually, “Freda seems to be in a sour mood, doesn’t she? Perhaps inviting her to enjoy music will lift her spirits.”


    Though Jaime wanted to point out the potential cruelty of the gesture towards Freda, he decided to remain silent.


    Despite feeling sorry for Freda, Jaime had no choice but to obediently purchase the tickets, knowing full well that Theo was deeply in love with Elyse.


    Jaime nodded promptly. “Understood, Mr. Ward. I’ll ensure the task ispleted.”


    Two hourster, Freda, enjoying a facial with her friend in the beauty salon, received Theo’s message. Delighted, she eximed, “See? Theo invited me to enjoy some music. He must have feelings for me.”


    Freda’s friend, Alena Walsh, nced at the message and remarked, “Enjoy music? Could it be his ex-girlfriend’s performance?”
