Obin couldn't help but smirk at Paul's response, the tension in the room momentarily broken by the unexpected exchange. However, the situation was far from resolved, and Anne knew that she needed to intervene before more information was divulged.
Obin started to say, "Come tonight if you can. It's yo..." but Anne swiftly interrupted him, her urgency evident in her voice.
"We will definitely go, Mr. Obin," she replied hastily, her words carrying a note of finality.
Anne's quick response was an attempt to deflect any further questions and maintain control over the situation. She couldn't afford for Paul to reveal any more than he already had, especially in his current state of inebriation.
Anne's heart raced as she realized the potential consequences of Paul overhearing their conversation. She knew that her son's unpredictable behavior, particularly when he was inebriated, could lead to chaos.
