Douglas cautiously glanced at Alston.
Naomi was his cousin. They were the same age, both aimless, and had attended the same school. She had a crush on Alston since childhood.
"Alston, don’t you remember? Naomi was sent abroad eleven years ago because you said you didn’t want to see her around anymore. That’s why my uncle..." Douglas observed the confusion on Alston’s face and continued, "To this day, unless you say otherwise, my family doesn’t dare to let Naomi return."
"And what else?"
"What else?" Douglas hesitated before forcing a laugh. "Alston, even if you gave me a thousand lives, I wouldn’t dare pry into the details of your relationship with Cecilia!"
Alston shot a sidelong glance at Douglas.
