The atmosphere in the car was so quiet it was almost frightening. After a long while, Asher Land finally spoke.
"You said you were out to see Eva Miller late at night, so why is Oliver Johnson here too?"
His tone seemed to carry a hint of interrogation.
"He asked Eva to arrange a meeting with me," Sophie Smith replied honestly. "He knows I wouldn't see him, so he had to ask Eva for help. Eva's feelings for him are quite complex now..."
As she spoke, she gently caressed her abdomen with her fingers. Asher noticed her subtle gesture and thought that the child in her belly might have been bothering her again.
"Are you okay?"
"Hmm?" Sophie wasn't sure if he was asking about the baby in her belly. She paused, then continued, "I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me. I won't do anything silly."
She was so certain, it was as if she was about to raise both hands to swear it to the heavens.
Hearing her say this, he naturally felt much relieved.
