Before he could speak, on this side, Robert Thomson suddenly asked quietly by her ear, "Emma, do you... love me?"
She was startled, not knowing why he asked this question. After a while, she answered, "My feelings for you are the same as yours for me."
You liar! In Robert's heart, there was a quiet, cold laugh, but after the laugh, there was even more profound heartache and anger!
His expression dark, he held back the surging emotions and asked another question, "Then tell me, have you... been with other men?"
She was puzzled, glancing over at Robert Thomson. It seemed like a very long time since he had asked this question. Had he discovered something? Or was it...
Her heart skipped a beat as she looked into Robert's calm eyes, which were like a mirror, revealing no sign that he had seen through her.
But to this question, her answer was clear of conscience, "No. You are the first, and the only one."
Her slight hesitation fell into his eyes, enraging him even more!
