As if he had been waiting forever for Ezra to start talking, and as if he could read what was on his mind. Raphael broke the silence first, causing Ezra to jolt slightly.
"Do you want me to come to Mr. Alois' daughter's birthday party?"
That surprised me. This guy is really something, he didn't even look at me and yet he could read minds.
"Yeah, Samuel and Naomi said that Uncle Marshall and Mr. Alois are close friends... So it wouldn't be ethical if there's no representative attending the birthday party."
"Hm," Raphael hummed, looking deep in thought. "So, what does it have to do with me?"
Blinking rapidly, Ezra knew Raphael would react like this, he could already anticipate such an answer, but could this man show more sympathy towards his father? Considering he's Uncle Marshall's only son.
