"Must be thinking of someone."
Alfred Garland was playing a mobile game on the side, engrossed in the very popular PUBG game, which Edric Yancey also enjoyed playing. Sometimes, he would join Edric in the game. Today, with Edric absent, he played alone to pass the time. In a critical moment of the game, he answered Caryn Zachmann without lifting his head.
Seeing him engrossed in the game, Caryn's delicate eyebrows knitted slightly, and her eyes, like pools of autumn water, paid more attention to the words he had unintentionally uttered.
"Thinking of whom?"
"Of course, it's..." Alfred almost blurted out 'of course it's Ms. Quinlan', but as the words were about to escape his lips, he turned back to sanity and saw the expectant look in Caryn's eyes. Realizing his slip, he quickly corrected himself, saying, "Eh... I don't know anything about Amadeus's affairs, I was just saying. Miss Caryn, you shouldn't take my words to heart."
