After ruminating for a moment, she tentatively asked, "Do you know that your niece likes you?"
"Hm?" The man did not react to her question initially and only raised a brow, but when he realized what she was asking him, he fell into silence.
"Do you know about it?" She pressed on.
Only then did he answer. "Yes!"
"You knew?!" Surprise colored her eyes. "It's not fondness; it's—"
"I know what you mean!"
His brows furrowed tightly. Does this stupid woman think I am as stupid as her?!
Of course, he knew about his niece's feelings for him!
She was, however, a little bewildered.
He knew about it and still gave that reaction?
Snorting unhappily, she grumbled, "There are so many women who like you!"
He gave her a sidelong glance at this. There seemed to be quite a number of men flocking around her, too!
