Lily Turner stared at Easton Holmes for a long time, pursed her lips, and finally spoke slowly: "Does Benjamin Shaw have someone he's interested in romantically?"
That man must have a romantic interest, otherwise he wouldn't ignore such an outstanding sister. But it's just as well, her sister seems to like someone too, so they can both go their separate ways without holding each other back.
This girl! She gave him quite a start; he thought she was going to ask him something about himself.
Hearing Lily Turner ask about Benjamin Shaw, Easton Holmes's tensed heart relaxed instantly, "Did you hear this from your sister?"
As soon as she asked, he realized she was inquiring on behalf of her sister.
"I'm just asking, my sister didn't say anything." Lily Turner immediately denied it, and then she pressed further: "Just tell me, does he have someone he's interested in or not?"
She wasn't being nosey or gossiping; she was searching for some information that might be useful to her sister.
