My eyes dropped down to my lap when I no longer had the courage in me to meet Hayden’s eyes. The truth was that Ethan said many things. That didn’t mean that I believed in every single little thing that he said. The thing that I couldn’t bring up to Hayden was Ethan’s claim that he had a role in my parent’s death. I wasn’t sure if it was true but even if it was and the previous boss of Silva found my father through Hayden, I wasn’t sure if Hayden was to blame.
Precisely because I was unsure about my own feelings and thoughts, I didn’t want to bring that up to Hayden. If we had more time together, would Hayden come around to tell me about that by himself?
“Well? Why are you suddenly tongue-tied?” Hayden asked.
“He didn’t say anything much. Just like I told you before, he wants Torex and Silva to form a partnership…” I replied.
“So, he decided to ask you about that instead of talking to me?” Hayden surmised followed by a disgusted chuckle.
“I guess…” I mumbled softly.
