When Emily Parker asked the question, she was stunned.
Wasn't she just asking something she already knew?
Hadn't Carlos long ago said that the one he loved was...
Carlos, who used to answer every question, stayed silent for quite a while.
He frowned, seemingly deep in thought.
Emily gazed at him expectantly, her heart pounding with uncertainty.
Even if she could be disappointed, she still wanted to hear Carlos's true feelings.
Finally, he spoke.
The phone rang, Emily picked it up, and saw it was "Rainny."
It was Rainny White.
Speak of the devil.
She thought of Rainny White at the new car launch today, holding those flowers.
Aware it might be difficult to explain on the spot, Emily declined the call.
Seeing Carlos show no signs of sobering up, Emily decided to make him a cup of hangover tea.
As soon as she left, Carlos muttered something.
"Emily."
After he mumbled, his furrowed brow suddenly relaxed.
In a bar, Sophie Parker poured Rainny White a drink.
