"What did you say?!" Eld scratched his head anxiously: "You bald-headed fool! Do you have to make people think you're an eccentric? Can't you keep something to yourself? You know, not everyone in this world is as open-minded as we are. If it were during Bloody Mary's time, they'd have burned you at the stake for less!"
He threw the cards on the table: "Alright, in my opinion, this marriage is definitely off!"
Darwin was flushed from Eld's rant, but was somewhat touched by his genuine concern: "Don't be mad, Eld. Actually, before I confessed to Emma, my father advised me not to reveal my views to her. After all, ladies are frail and might not handle such strong stimulation... But... I really couldn't lie to Emma, since I'm planning to spend my life with her..."
"Ha."
