"Sister Renee, after being abroad for so long, what made you suddenly think of coming back to the country? Is there someone here you can't bear to be apart from?" The speaker was someone who used to get along well with Adam Sinclair, and he was well aware of how much Adam used to like Renee, so he blurted it out while they were eating.
Renee jokingly chided him, "Why, are you not welcoming me back?"
The man waved his hand, sneaking a glance at Adam, who was eating with his head down, and said, "No, no, how could I not welcome Sister Renee? As soon as Sister Renee called me, I came running, didn't even mind my Old Man at home. Of course, you're welcome."
Renee noticed his subtle action, propping her chin up with one hand, her elegant and delicate face carrying a slightly captivating smile as she chuckled, "I'm teasing you, and you actually took it seriously. You're really easy to tease~"
"Oh, oh, why is someone so nervous~"
"There's something going on."
