Were you on set all day today? Tildas eyes snapped opened, caught off guard by the question.
Why was he asking this all of a sudden? Did he already know about her request to replace Rita? Was that why he seemed off since he got home? Was he angry that she had made the decision to replace Rita on her own? Anger flickered in her chest.
Did he care about Rita more than he let on? Was he upset because he cared about Rita? Tilda sat up, shaking off the cold feeling creeping into her heart.
No, my cousin came back, and I had dinner with her tonight. Lyndon stirred beside her, sitting up as well.
Your cousin? Yeah.
Which cousin? he asked, his tone probing.
Tilda ran a hand through her hair.
Corrine, the renowned singer.
Corrine? His gaze remained fixed on Tilda.
So it was just the two of you at dinner? A slight frown crossed her face.
Did he genuinely not know who she had dinner with? She gave him a pointed look.
Why are you suddenly so interested in who I had dinner with? If theres something you want to say, just say it. She kept her eyes locked on his, waiting for him to make things clear.
Lyndons eyes held hers, unwavering.
At dinner tonight, besides your cousin, was Keanu there too? Tilda froze, taken aback by his mention of Keanu.
Who told you that? she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Had she misunderstood this whole thing? Was he upset because he thought she had dinner with Keanu?
