Chapter 1808:
“Much better,” he assured her, managing a smile. “Thank you for your concern.”
Aileen smiled at Clive and said, “I'm relieved you're safe.”
Erica could see the way Aileen looked at him—she definitely had a crush on Clive. Stepping back with Aileen, she
leaned in and whispered, “What's going on here? Are you into this older guy? Aren't you supposed to marry
another man?”
Aileen shifted uncomfortably, her voice quiet. “He won't even meet me. The marriage might not happen.”
Erica nodded, understanding the situation. “So, you turned down DeWitt because you weren't into him?”
She then glanced at Clive and added, “You like this successful, attractive guy?”
Aileen, worried Clive might overhear, shot her a cautious look. “Keep your voice down, so Clive doesn’t hear.”
Erica laughed, realizing Aileen wasn’t the traditional type—she had a thing for older, charming men. Somehow,
that put her at ease. “Did you get his number?” she asked.
Aileen shook her head. “I was too shy to ask. Wouldn't that seem too forward?”
Erica figured Aileen wouldn't make the first move, but that didn’t mean they couldn't find another way.

An idea sparked. “Do you see the man with glasses?”
Aileen nodded. “Yeah.”
Erica grinned. “Ask him for his contact info and say it's for me—that I'm interested in him. That way, you'll have
Clive’s friend’s number.” She didn’t actually want Jayden’s number. She'd seen him with Elyse, always together.
They were moving like a couple. Instead, she chose to approach the man with glasses.
Aileen’s face lit up. “That's a solid plan.”
Summoning her courage, she walked up to Peyton and said, “Hey, can | get your number? My friend's interested
in you.”
The reaction was instant. Everyone's expressions shifted, especially Jayden, who let out an uncharacteristically
loud laugh.
Peyton adjusted his glasses, a small smile tugging at his lips. “For your friend? Sure, I'll give it to you.”

Peyton handed over his number without hesitation and asked his friends, “Are you leaving?”
“Yeah, why not?” they replied. The three of them looked a bit out of place but didn’t linger, quickly following
Peyton.
