Escaping The Mafia King

Varys did not answer to Hector. He could not. What would he even say?

That he had suddenly started to crave seeing an unknown girl that he had seen just once and wanted Hector to spill everything about her?

Never going to happen.

So instead, he slammed his fist hard on the glass table in frustration. The fork that was in his fist jumped on the table and fell down on the floor with a loud clattering sound.

He pushed his chair back angrily and started to walk away.

"What the hell is your problem, Varys?" Hector fumed at Varys.

Varys stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at his otherwise calm and polite brother who barely ever got angry.

"What is your problem?" Varys said through clenched teeth. He was already feeling frustrated and Hector's anger just added fuel to that frustration.

Hector also pushed back his chair, stood up and snapped,

"My problem is that why bringing guests here angers you so much? I just brought one girl here and you are bursting in flames at me without any reason like a maniac."

Varys' gritted his teeth, "What does it matter to you why I do not like guests? Why did you even bring her here if you knew that I would get angry?"

"Because she is a nice girl and I like her!" Hector shouted, "We needed to discuss about the college admissions that are due just next week. And I am allowed to bring my friends here whenever I want. This is my home too!"

Varys instantly calmed down. The word 'friends' hit him like an arrow made of flowers. So just friends..?

"Oh alright." He said nonchalantly in an as calm tone as he could manage without showing Hector his excitement,

"Then why don't you bring here anymore? You should have told me."

Hector's mouth literally dropped open at Varys' words. The man who does not like to let even his own close friends enter inside the home is allowing Hector to bring Hope back again?
