0071 Designer Trash

“Boss, are you alright?” James asked, and Evie’s attention returned to him.

“Yeah. Why did you ask?”

James did not reply immediately. His pair of blue-gray eyes studied her for a while as if not believing her but could not comment on it.

“You just seem distracted so I asked,” he said afterwards.

“Ah, I just remembered I promised mom I will not return home late and have dinner with them. Eli will be coming back tonight.”

James looked surprised.

“Boss, you really made up with your stepmother and call her mom now?”

Evie looked at him. James had nothing else on his face and in his tone except for pure curiosity. She smiled.

“Is that shocking?”

James shook his head. “Not really. But it’s unbelievable considering how stubborn you are about hating her before.”
