Sofia was undoubtedly a striking beauty, but when she tried to leave her phone number and WhatsApp contact with William, he refused her with a sense of righteousness.
"I've said it before; if fate brings us together again, I'll be willing to teach you. But there's no need to exchange contact details."
Such moral uprightness, entirely unmoved by physical attraction.
If anyone else had said such words, Lila and Alice might have suspected them of playing hard to get.
Going by William's logic, it could make someone let their guard down, making it easier to orchestrate a 'chance' encounter later on, attributing it to fate, and teaching them the violin – wouldn't that be a way to win them over?
Yet, when William spoke these words, Lila believed him.
In terms of attractiveness, she was no less than Sofia, but William treated her akin to a servant and was often blunt in his speech.
