"Sir, can I invite a friend to join?" Fergus thought of Shelly.
Fergus was no fool and knew that Shelly was not interested in him, but since they were from the same hometown, he genuinely hoped she would find a good match someday.
"I''m not sure. Are you nning on inviting single friends or married ones?" the manager asked.
"A single friend. If it''s not allowed, then forget it. My friend might not want toe anyway." Fergus did not want toplicate things.
"I''ll ask Eliam."
The manager called Eliam and ryed Fergus''s question. Eliam asked in return, "Did he mention who he wanted to bring?"
"He didn''t. I don''t know any of his friends either!"
Eliam guessed that Fergus wanted to bring Shelly and said, "Tell him that, if he wants to bring someone, it can only be one friend. And keep it low-key. Otherwise, everyone will want to bring a friend, and the hotel banquet hall might not be able to amodate us all."
The manager conveyed Eliam''s response to Fergus, and Fergus immediately messaged Shelly.
[Shelly, ourpany is having a meet-cute gathering this weekend with Tate Industries and Sterling Group. It''s a free event. Do you want to join me? After all, you''re single, too. I just asked the supervisor, and he said I can bring one single friend.]
Upon seeing the message, Shelly rejected it without hesitation. [I''m not going. I''m not even part of thosepanies. It would be too awkward for me to go.]
[Maybe others will also bring friends! Just apany me, okay? Consider it as expanding your horizons. The event is free, so it''s like getting a free dinner!] Fergus argued.
[Fergus, be honest. Are you afraid of attending alone?] she typed.
[Haha. You caught me.]
[Let me check if I have any other ns this weekend. If I don''t, I''ll apany you.] Shelly wrote.
[Great.]
Shelly put down her phone, not thinking too much about this matter.
Her n for the weekend had been to go register for driving lessons.dt would be best to obtain her driver''s license by the end of the yea and then to buy a budget car.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
She had to buy a house and a car, and the financial pressure she felt was quite significant.
In the blink of an eye, the weekend arrived.
Audrey had recovered swiftly after three days of medication.
ording to her original n, Shelly went to the driving school early in the morning to register.
The staff at the driving school gave her a few books and her instructor''s contact information.
Upon returning home, Shelly began studying for the theoretical exam.
At noon, Fergus called her and asked if she had made her decision, and Shelly was momentarily confused, not knowing what he was referring to.<nfd675>

"I told you about the gathering between Dream Maker, Sterling Group, and Tate Industries, right? Are you free tonight? Let''s go together," Fergus said. "Oh... Can''t you go alone? I don''t really want to go," Shelly said.
Just then, her mother walked over and looked at her in confusion.
Shelly covered the speaker and whispered, "It''s from Fergus. Hispany is organizing a meet-cute event for all their single employees. He wants me to go with him but I don''t really want to go."
Shelly''s mother chuckled. "It''s not like you have anything to do tonight. Just go! Maybe you will meet someone you like."
Upon hearing her mother''s advice, Shelly said to Fergus, "Where will the gathering be held? I will goter at night."
"I wille pick you up," Fergus said
before letting her in on a rumor he overheard. "I heard that there are
far
more single men in the gathering than women, so I think my chance of finding a girlfriend there is slim, but
you might find someone!"
