The moment their eyes met, both of them froze.
Thomas Fisher was the first to snap out of it. He opened the car door and walked out, calmly heading toward Athena Linton, who was standing at the gate of the yard. He stopped a meter in front of her.
"Why are you here? Looking for me?" He glanced at the gift she was holding before looking up at her.
"I... I came to see Uncle and Auntie." Athena hadn't expected to bump into Thomas Fisher at the yard gate. Even though she'd prepared beforehand, encountering him in person made her uncontrollably nervous.
Her nervousness was so obvious that it was hard for Thomas Fisher not to notice. He pushed the gate open and stood aside, "Come in."
Guests are always welcome, especially family, and this person was the younger sister of his big brother. He couldn't just turn her away, that would be unreasonable.
"Oh."
Athena glanced at the man who opened the door for her and walked inside holding the gift.
