Their Opinion

A few minutes later as the conversation was dying down, Mark said he had something important to announce.

Seeing him take over, Alan and Sam were around. Coincidentally, they were the only ones still at the table as the others had gone off to dance.

They were just the two people he wanted to talk to.

"What happened? Are you venturing into a new business?" Sam inquired. "Can you let him speak?" Alan said while giving a glance. And just like that, another round of jokes started.

Mark face-palmed his forehead. But when he saw that there was no time to waste as the others were soon going to return to the table, he said out loud, "I have a daughter with Elena."

Instantly, the smiles that had been on Sam and Alan's faces disappeared as they slowly turned their attention to him. "You said, what?" Alan asked with raised brows. His eyes were almost about to pop out from their sockets. Sam was the one that was totally lost from all of this.
