Bab 610: A separation moved up.

Scarlet slipped into the seat next to Esong as Esong's were wandering around the dining room. Since everyone was already gathered there for a meal, she figured that he was searching for her. 

There was a running joke between her and Fey that Esong could not live without her. Scarlet often laughed it off but she had a feeling it was not a joke. His eyes were always searching for in every room. Just like now, she assumed. 

"Is it me you seek?" she whispered into his ear?

He turned his head and smiled, along with an honest nodding of his head. He made no move to deny it at all. 

"Ho! you are not even subtle at all." she punched him on the arm, lightly. 

Deep down, she actually loved it and it warmed her that he loved her so much. 

"I am giving this meal thirty minutes then me and you are getting out of here for a personal day." he whispered to her. 

"No work?" she asked.

"No work." he answered definitively.
