"But…" said Heather, frowning and looking puzzled, "Isn't Allen Christopher, your half-brother? Your grandfather's birthday party has nothing to do with him. Why does he want to attend it? Isn't he too shameless, Alex?"
Alexander didn't respond. Heather looked at him in surprise. As Alexander stared at her with deep eyes, she asked in puzzlement, "Alex, what's wrong with you?"
The struggle and hesitation in his eyes gradually faded. He fixed his eyes on her with a determined look. "Heather, I have something very important to tell you."
She was more bewildered. "Huh? What about your grandfather's birthday party..."
"It's not urgent," he said in a serious tone. "Heather, haven't you always been curious about how we met?"
She looked at him in amazement. Why did Alexander suddenly mention it?
