"Why are you asking me this?" Finnley was a little surprised, "What we did just now is just between friends, isn’t it?" After saying this, he felt a little guilty.
He had never seriously thought about his feelings for Mya.
But Jennifer was very clear that they were more than just friends. Finnley's eyes were on Mya all the time.
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Finnley's eyes fell on the cup of Earl Gray tea on the table. He picked up the cup and looked at it, thinking seriously, "Do you think..." He raised his eyes and continued to ask, "Do you think I like her?"
Jennifer smiled slightly, "A little bit, maybe you didn't even realize it, or...you just don't want to face it."
Her words hit Finnley.
As Mya's friend, Jennifer reminded him, "But I heard from Ivan that you have a fiancée."
Finnley paused from drinking the water. He raised his head and looked Jennifer straight in the eye.
Finnley's expression changed slightly. He answered with silence.
Jennifer didn't go further. "If you can make her happy, I will support you. She is young and naive. I'm just worried that she won’t handle it if your fiancée is a Catherine-like person. She will get hurt. You should solve the problem as soon as possible."
"I know." Finnley nodded. Then he took a sip of his tea. "Thank you for your kindness. Maybe she and I are just friends. I admit that I like her, but that’s it."
Jennifer heard his hesitation about this relationship from his words.
Finnley said sincerely, "If I'm to be with her, I'll take care of everything. I won’t let be a mistress. So don't worry. I do have a fiancée, but we..."
He hesitated. Jennifer didn't ask. It was personal.
Maybe he had his own plans.
In the yard outside the wooden house, Mya was eating grilled eggplant. She was still wearing the light-yellow coat Finnley bought.
