All eyes fell onto Bill.
Grasping some more air, Arabella couldn’t fight the nervousness she felt with Bill’s confession.
‘Married?’
‘To whom?’
‘What’s with him?’
‘What is he trying to do?’
‘Why is he telling that to them now?’
‘No… Bill is putting her again into a difficult situation.’
Arabella’s thoughts made her feel restless.
She just hoped she was wrong.
“I had once.” Bill sounded again with an emphasis in every word then he looked at Arabella with an unreadable expression.
Arabella looked at him confused and pleading to spare her tonight.
Their eyes met for a while like they didn’t have any companion at the table.
