Carol barely managed to squeeze out a "Thank you" from her throat.
Pouring herself a cup of tea, she flashed an innocent and kind smile, "Mr. Hanson's niece and nephew are quite good-looking, are they his direct relatives?"
Xavier Flemmings said, "No, they're the kids of my dad's friend."
Carol realized, "Oh, then your families must be very close."
Norah Lamont chuckled, "Yes, Mr. Hanson is really good at taking care of people."
Carol tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, with a shy smile, "Is that so?"
Norah continued, "He once had one hundred and twenty-nine girlfriends who all said the same."
Xavier, "......"
Carol was stunned, "Mr. Hanson dated that many girlfriends? You must be joking!"
Norah turned to Xavier, "Are you joking?"
Xavier glared at her, "No, and you’re off by a hundred!"
This time, Norah was the one taken aback, ignoring him to continue talking to Carol, "How many boyfriends have you had, Mrs. Carol?"
Carol awkwardly said, "Well, that's kind of personal, isn't it?"
Henson Lamont said, "There's nothing wrong with sharing. My uncle's been open about it, you should be too!"
Carol laughed modestly, holding up a finger, "Just one."
"Ah?" Norah expressed her sympathy, "Then you're missing out!"
"Not really, the past is the past, and the future holds new beginnings." Carol looked at Xavier, her smile genuine.
Norah pursed her lips, "Carol, that's beautifully said!"
Carol felt embarrassed, "Just call me Carol."
Norah, "Alright, Carol."
Carol, "......"
