Perhaps she had too much to drink, Emma Smith actually had the courage to ask him a seemingly trivial question: "You seem to like Oliver a lot?"
Thankfully, she didn't drink too much to ask directly about him and his sister-in-law, but she asked about Oliver instead.
Robert Thomson nodded: "Yes, he's very cute."
"But, he's already four years old—" She must've been drunk, daring to dig deeper into this matter.
"Well, he is the result of my brother's relationship with her five years ago—" Robert was in a good mood today and didn't blame her for being nosy.
"But, I remember—five years ago, when she married your brother, he broke off the engagement. Afterward, he seemed to have a 'plane crash', what happened then?"
Robert put down his wine glass. Due to the Bloody Mary he had just drunk, his lips were tinged with red like a vampire's: "Do you want to know?"
She was intrigued and nodded as she looked at his eyes, seemingly dancing under the ancient city's waters reflection.
