After leaving Leanna's house, Louis took a taxi to Daphne's neighborhood.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, several security guards warmly greeted him, "Louis, it's been a while since you last visited
your girlfriend. Did you have a fight?"

Louis stopped in his tracks, a faint smile forming on his lips. "No, I've just been busy lately."
"I see. Well, go ahead. Don't let us keep you. We wouldn't want to waste your time together."
Louis nodded slightly in acknowledgment and walked forward with long strides.
Inside the apartment, Daphne was applying a face mask while practicing yoga and talking to a friend on the phone.
The friend asked, "Hey, about that young guy, can you give me his contact information?"
Daphne was puzzled. "What young guy?"
"The one who appeared in the advertisement with you. He's at the top of the trending list today. Did you not see it?"

After briefly retweeting a post from 'Starry Night''s studio, she put her phone down.
To be honest, she didn't want to dwell on the hurtful comments.
After finishing the script, she didn't reach for her phone as she wanted to rest her eyes. Instead, she started moving her body.
The friend clicked their tongue. "How are you not interested to know more about something so big? That guy's so hot. Honestly,
have you ever felt like losing your self-control when it comes to him?"
Daphne sat in a plank position and replied irritably, "What nonsense are you talking about? You just said he's a young man. How
could I... have any thoughts about him?"

"Was that hesitation I just heard?"
"You heard wrong! I was just catching my breath!" Daphne huffed. "I don't feel like talking to you anymore. I'm going to focus on
my yoga."
With that, she quickly hung up the phone.
But without her friend's voice disturbing her, Daphne still couldn't muster up any enthusiasm or energy.
She decided to sit up and pick up her phone. After hesitating for a few seconds, she opened her Twitter.
The trending topic about her and Louis was still at the top.
