Chapter 285: Chapter 285

The name Adelaide, for Morwenna, was like a bad taste in her mouth. It was rare for Morwenna to dislike someone this intensely.

In truth, Adelaide had once saved Stuart, and if Adelaide had simply pursued Stuart openly, Morwenna wouldn’t have had an issue with her. But Adelaide didn’t go after Stuart. Instead, she always found sneaky ways to bother Morwenna, which she really didn't appreciate.

Seeing Morwenna’s frown, Greta quickly said, “Don’t worry too much. That backstabber Adelaide won’t stir up much trouble. Stuart wouldn’t allow it since he was the one who sent her packing. She’s already on a flight back home. I have a friend who spotted Adelaide returning, so I came to give you a heads-up.”

Morwenna gratefully responded, “Thank you, Greta.”

Greta leaned in closer, her curiosity piqued, “Even though that backstabber’s return might not mean much, I do wonder what’s brewing. So, how are things between you and Stuart?”

Morwenna gaped, realizing Greta was here for the scoop. Nevertheless, she didn’t mind sharing with Greta. Their relationship wasn’t a secret to Greta, so it was fine.

Morwenna earnestly shared, “Stuart and I are doing well. It's just that now I’ve started school, I can’t just leave campus whenever I want, so we don’t see each other every day. But we call each other daily. My English isn’t very good, so... he reads me English stories...”

Greta was all ears, shaking her head after hearing the story, “No, no, that won’t do. With someone like Stuart, the physical closeness reflects how close he is to you emotionally. This polite distance isn’t enough.”

“Actually... it's not all just polite distance. He... he has kissed me.”

Greta’s eyes sparkled with the thrill of gossip, “Oh? Not bad, but still not enough. Honey, let me tell you, with men, if they like you, they go for it. Don’t wait for Stuart to make a move. You should take the initiative, seduce him, get close to him, keep him on his toes.”

“But I don’t know how.”

“There’s nothing to it, I’ll teach you...”

Greta leaned in even closer, nearly resting on Morwenna’s arm. But this time, Morwenna didn’t pull away.

They sat on the steps, with Greta playing the role of love guru, all while dishing out advice and getting the latest gossip on Adelaide’s return.

Adelaide, that schemer, could try all she wanted, but Stuart would never fall for it. Not worth worrying about.

After half an hour, Greta felt her tensed nerves relax. She used to wonder what kind of woman could win Stuart’s affection. Now, she pondered what kind of man could capture Morwenna’s heart. Stuart was indeed lucky, and Greta couldn’t help but feel envious!

As they wrapped up, Greta stood up, saying gracefully, “Alright, remember what I told you? You can try it out during your weekend leave. You should head back and rest, I’m heading out too.”

“Okay, I’ll remember. Take care, Greta.”

Greta’s grace lasted only a second before she let out a yelp, “Ouch, I think I stepped on a pebble.” She had almost forgotten she was still barefoot.

Morwenna hurried over to check. Greta’s foot was red but not injured. Looking at Greta’s high heels and then down at her own cartoon slippers, Morwenna couldn’t help but smile.
