Chapter 52

While waiting for the bus, Eileen had her hands in her pockets, with a nonchalant and gloomy Egbert standing beside her. She glanced at the timid-looking Aurora and Hubery on her other side.

She said to Egbert, “You dont have anything to say?”

Egbert lowered his head to look at her and replied softly, What do you want to hear?”

Eileen took a step back, giving room to Aurora and Hubery. “It’s not about what I want to hear, it’s what they want.”

Egbert frowned.

Seeing Egbert didn’t react, she boldly reached out and grabbed the hem of his clothes, giving it a little shake.
