Ethan froze as he walked into the backyard. The couple who stood under the tree was very close as they whispered something he could not hear. From his position, Ethan could see their silhouette was as if they were hugging.
Although his wife had told him the news that their friend Edith was seeing President Mo, Ethan was still at a stage of disbelief. Neil Mo was famous for his cold and aloof attitude. While after being acquainted with Edith for years, Ethan thought that she was a cheery girl. Seeing that the two of them with different personalities get together seemed a little strange for him.
Ethan stared at the cake knife in his hand and let out a dry cough. Soon, the couple in front of him parted and Edith flashed an embarrassed smile.
"Well, Lily told me to bring out the cake knife," Ethan said. His gaze met with Neil and he slowly nodded. "Please, sit down. Lily went in to call the kids. We can eat soon."
