ASTRID glanced at Reas and he almost couldn't hold back his laugh when he saw the constipated expression on the other's face. Really, was it so bad to see Lauren again? He thought he would be happier. But knowing this guy, he probably wouldn't show it even if he was.
Reas hadn't recovered yet from unexpectedly seeing Lauren when he noticed that his brother was actually holding in his laughter! He glared at Astrid.
"Is this your 'surprise'?" he asked in a hushed tone, gritting his teeth.
"Yes, isn't it wonderful?" Astrid responded in a teasing tone. "Don't feel happy?"
Wonderful, my ass. Instead of making his mood better, it felt more like Astrid was trying to infuriate him. Before he could give this brother of his a piece of his mind, the other had already called Lauren.
"Lauren!"
