When Richard returned home, Robin had prepared some delicious dishes for him, but everything seemed tasteless for Richard.
Richard's stomach was not empty now, but he felt that his heart was empty and something was missing.
"Mr. Carter, do you want more food?" Robin had stared at Richard for a long time. Richard's plate was empty, but he was scooping the air into his mouth, as if the food were too delicious.
"I'm full. Please take them away." Richard finally found that his plate was completely empty now.
After dinner, Richard sat on the sofa and watched TV. He didn't know what was on TV, and he kept seeing Amy's face on the TV screen.
Watching TV didn't work for him. He stood up and went wandering into the garden, but soon he felt bored, too.
What happened to him? He never had this experience.
"Kevin, are you free? Let's go and have a drink." Feeling uneasy at home, Richard invited Kevin out for a drink.
"Okay. The same place. I'll be right there." Kevin felt very bored at home, so they went to the bar.
"Richard, have you explained everything to Amy? Did she forgive you?" Last time, Richard left in such a hurry that he said nothing to Kevin.
Later on, Richard made it clear to Kevin, and Kevin was still worried about him. Richard had been away for two months, and it would be absurd if Amy wasn't angry.
"I had explained it to her. She has forgiven me." Richard was quite happy. His Amy was really a good girl. He had prepared a lot of statements and witnesses, but she believed in him before he mentioned them. He was very touched. Amy's trust was so precious.
"Forgiven you? Since you left with Allison to have her leg operation, now you must keep your deal with Allison. Amy is such a good yet stubborn girl. You can’t let her down." Kevin started to know Amy well.
"I won’t let her down. I've made it clear to Allison before she had the operation that I did that only because I wanted to repay what I owed her. After the operation, I have nothing to do with her." Richard left Amy when she needed him the most only to repay his debt.
Richard didn't expect that this was a trap set by Allison.
When Kevin heard Richard's words, he said nothing. Richard was a man of his word. Since he had made it clear to Allison, he would keep his promise.
They drank a few more glasses of alcohol and felt very bored.
"Why don't we go and find them? It's not safe for three girls to eat out." Richard couldn't wait to see Amy.
"I'm also worried. Let's go." Kevin echoed. After Kevin heard that Amy, Hilary and Hannah went to celebrate, he had been thinking about coming to them.
Since they found the best excuse, they put down their glasses and went to find Amy and the others.
