Caden’s Approach
Eventually, Caden reached out to Elara directly, asking for her help in quickly resolving their financial matters. “We need to get this sorted out,” he said, attempting a tone of friendly civility.
Elara kept her expression unreadable. “Of course,” she replied. “Let’s figure this out together.”
Inside, she readied herself. She knew this negotiation was coming, and his sudden eagerness was telling.
She listened carefully, noting every subtle sign of urgency and unease. Each word from Caden added another piece to her puzzle.
