Count Hughes glanced at him and spoke up, "Little Crow."
Two words that made Anthony Charlie pause in his steps, for the first time he was a bit puzzled by what he heard, "Huh?"
With a look of disdain, Count Hughes glanced at him again and said, "She, she's got the wrong idea."
Got the wrong idea?
Wrong about what?
Anthony knew his friend better than anyone and, after reflecting for a moment, his face turned green.
Eve Thompson had misunderstood, thinking Count Hughes was the "him" from back then?
He tugged at the corner of his mouth.
No wonder that guy was acting so awkward and refused to acknowledge him.
So she had no idea about the relationship between them. And to think of it, Eve had always been saying some inexplicable things...
And he had confessed to her on the day Iris Thompson had an accident, saying things like 'it has always been you'...
Did she think that the person she liked was Iris Thompson?
Anthony suddenly held his forehead.
