章 61: Surprised

"H-have w-we met before?" I blurted the words aloud before I realized what I was doing. I shouldn't have asked but there's a part of me curious to find the truth.

A pair of exquisite blue eyes stared back at me and I caught my breath as he steadied his gaze to mine. He's got the most amazing shade of blue eyes I've ever seen. For a moment I found myself staring straight into a shade of beautiful lagoon.

"I assure you, we never met before Madam." He was polite, his face showed not a bit of emotion but when I looked into the depth of his eyes, I caught a glimpse of sadness he wasn't able to conceal in time.

"Are you sure?" I wasn't convinced yet. There was a different answer I wish to hear coming from him.

"I'm certain Madam. We haven't met before." He replied. 

Despite the seemingly honest remark, I have this feeling he wasn't entirely telling the truth. 

I shook my head. Probably I was simply mistaken. Why would he lie anyway?
