If anything he did not want to talk about this matter.

He felt a lump in his throat and he thought clearing his throat would make him feel better but it proved otherwise.

His mouth watered instead, he did not know why he felt thirsty all of sudden. He gulped.

At that moment, Chamberlain really wanted to say it hasn't been that long but he held back.

He did not know how to respond to her.

"Do I disgust you?"

He hurriedly answered, "Of course not!"
