Chapter 430: Missed Opportunity

"What do you think could have happened to Charles? Why did he tun out like that?" Aphrodite asked from behind, with concern in her voice.

Grey shook his head briefly.

"I have no idea.I hope nothing has happened to Aurora because he was asking when the letter came in." Aphrodite nodded briefly.

"You are right."

When Grey turned around, he was shocked for a moment, Thomas had his arm around Aphrodite's waist, as if he was trying to console her.

Console her for what? It wasn't as if something bad had happened to Charles.

Grey cleared his throat meaningfully and walked back to the dining room.It took a while before Thomas and Aphrodite would join him.

"Can we just eat? I'm tired!" Grey groaned.

Aphrodite and Thomas eventually sat, not after Thomas had pulled out the chair for her.

Grey groaned inwardly, anger building up in him.

"Can we please just eat? Because I have a place to go." Aphrodite sighed.

"The last time I checked, you are supposed to be home. It's Saturday after all."

Grey murmured some inaudible and waited.

Eventually, they started eating.

"Aphrodite, why didn't you tell me that Thomas was your ex- boyfriend?"

"Oh," Aphrodite chuckled.

"Because it has been a long time.I don't think it's something I should tell you about."

Grey nodded briefly and looked at Thomas.

"Oh, you don't know that he planned to."

"Can I have wine?" Thomas said quickly, cutting him off.

"Yes, sure," Aphrodite got up to retrieve the wine.

Thomas looked at Grey.

Please, don't say that.It's supposed to be a surprise." Grey scoffed.
