The atmosphere suddenly became tense again. Everyone looked at Ace, waiting for his answer.
The man slowly took a sip of champagne and said meaningfully, "I used to be fearless, but now, what I fear most is my wife leaving me."
"Oh no, you really are a hopeless romantic. Show some backbone, Ace!"
Ethan waved his hand. He expected that answer. It did not surprise him at all.
Clara also could not help mocking Ace. "Can you two please stop taking every opportunity to show how much you're in love? It's making me sick. I don't even have the appetite for the leg of lamb anymore."
Joanna was calm though. Her beautiful lips curled into a shallow smile. She looked gentle and peaceful, but there was a trace of coldness in her eyes.
She crossed her legs and wrapped the blanket tighter around her, then said to Ace, "May I ask you a question?"
Ace shrugged and said calmly, "Go ahead."
