Turning his head around, Neil found that Edith was in the living room. At one glance, he was able to see that she has been sitting alone in the dark. A look of surprise appeared on his face.
Was she waiting for him?
Neil watched her stood up and walked over towards him. She stopped in front of him and he was able to see her face under the dimmed light. "Why are you not asleep yet?"
Hearing his tone of voice, Edith realized that Neil was in a bad mood. Suddenly, she hesitated and wonder if she should leave him alone.
"Mrs. Mo asked me to wait for you," Edith said. "Earlier, Mrs. Mo took Hazel to stay at their place next door. She heard that you went to a business dinner and was worried that you are going to come home drunk. "
