**Chapter 166**

“Why don’t you join me for dinner at my place? I could help you unravel the mystery of what he’s really thinking,” Evanna suggested, her playful eyebrow arched.

Metis felt a rush of warmth flood her cheeks, a blush that she couldn’t quite suppress. Even the inflection in her voice softened, as if the very idea of it sent butterflies fluttering in her stomach. “Do you really think you can do that?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Evanna leaned in closer, her eyes sparkling with mischief. Metis’s heart began to race. How had Evanna picked up on her feelings? Was it that transparent? If it was, then why on earth was Sebastian acting so oblivious? Could it be that he was employing some sort of playboy tactic to lead her on, to tease her with hope?

A whirlwind of thoughts flooded her mind, each one more tangled than the last.

“Absolutely, I can,” Evanna replied with a confident nod. “Honestly, I think you two are quite adorable together.”

Metis hesitated, a mixture of excitement and uncertainty swirling within her. Evanna’s keen observation only solidified her suspicion—Metis had developed a significant crush on Sebastian. “If you’d like, I could even have a word with Sebastian about how you feel. You both are such wonderful people; it makes me want to cheer for you to be together,” Evanna added, her voice filled with encouragement.

Metis nodded slightly, her heart fluttering at the thought.

Just then, my phone buzzed, cutting through their whispered conversation. It was Jeanine once more.

“Hello? Jeanine?” I answered, trying to keep my tone light.

“Mr. Grimwald? I apologize for bothering you again,” she said, her voice tinged with an awkwardness that made me raise an eyebrow.

We had just wrapped up our video conference a mere two minutes ago, and here she was, calling me again. She sounded almost self-conscious, as if she was unsure whether to interrupt me.
