"Okay… listen… what if…"
Thalia immediately continued explaining her theory passionately, her hands moving up and down animatedly while trying to connect every clue together.
Meanwhile, William only sat there quietly staring at her.
Lovingly.
Honestly, he barely heard anything she was saying anymore.
Because his entire focus had already shifted toward how adorable she looked trying so seriously to explain her thoughts.
The way her brows furrowed.
The way her hands kept moving around dramatically.
Even the frustrated little pout appearing every few seconds somehow looked cute in his eyes.
"And that's why I think maybe someone is intentionally making you suspicious of Elijah," Thalia finally concluded seriously.
Silence.
Then William suddenly smiled softly.
Thalia blinked. "Did you even listen?"
William immediately nodded without shame.
"Mm."
Thalia narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Then what did I just say?"
