Yelena avoided her friend's strong gaze and instantly broke free from her grip. She continued with her dinner as if she was not spoken to.
Of course, she was okay with letting her friend know about her relationship but... Colonel Arias curious gaze made her nervous. She knows that he was an important person in her best friend life but... everything happened too sudden!
"Yelena, don't try to avoid my question. Don't you see that I'm curious to death now?!"
Just for a split second, Yelena had forgotten that her friend was always a curious cat. Why did she even hope that she would be able to keep quiet?
She put down the spoon and look at Ella with an appealing face. "Is that really necessary now?"
"Yes," Ella responded firmly. "You know that I won't stop until I hear what I want. Who is that man from the countryside?"
Ella didn't get to see the face of the man as his sunglasses covered most of his face.
