A little lunch - II

Evelyn nodded at him again and he raised an eyebrow at that. 

"Why do you know so much?" 

Flustered slightly, she replied, "Well, I just do that in respect." 

"Do you respect me," he leaned back on the chair, "what do you fear to respect me?" 

She gulped. "We- I think you know the answer." 

He smirked slightly, "do I?" He taunted. "What if I refuse to acknowledge that? How about you tell me the answer?" 

Evelyn licked her lips in nervousness. "You won't mind?" 

He shook his head. 

"I do fear you." She answered. "That is the immediate reaction when we see a don from another family." 

He nodded slowly. "We have never met before but our fathers were business associates. I have never seen you around." 

Evelyn smiled sadly at the reason. " When people started threatening me, my father told me back. After my mother I was the only person in his life that mattered and I think he took it hard."
