"I thought you said you weren''t going to talk about this topic anymore," Reba frowned.


    "You are right, Sorry. It''s just that the truth slipped from my mouth."


    Reba clenched her fists and muttered, "Now I am convinced that you must have fed some lies to Rudy in your story."


    "I didn''t. I just told him the truth."


    "Yes, I am well aware of your definition of truth."


    "We can agree to disagree. Rudy didn''t seem to care much about it anyway, and he had a point. All that was in the past and can''t be changed."


    "What did you tell him? I want to know," Reba asked politely, seemingly hoping that Eleanor would tell her.


    "Rudy didn''t tell you, or you didn''t ask him?"


    Reba shook her head, "Rudy didn''t tell me."


    "Figures."


    "Hmm?" Reba shot a quick nce at Eleanor to know what she meant by that.


    "We talked while…" Eleanor made a zero with her fingers and repeatedly inserted her finger from the other hand into the zero.


    "..."


    "Sex."


    "Yes, I got it. I am just… speechless. You two met yesterday, and already… wow… my respect for you decreases day by day."


    "We met eighteen years ago, and we already became a husband and a wife. What''s wrong with a couple making love?"


    "I don''t know. I didn''t expect you to do it as soon as you met."


    "What''s the point of dying? And sex feels great, and Rudy is… master of sex. He can please us to our heart''s content. He is so good at it that your body automatically yearns for more. And sex is a great way tomunicate and express your love."


    Reba stared at Eleanor with a thoughtful look on her face. Seemingly pondering and trying to process Eleanor''s words.


    "Of course, I am talking about actual couples and true love. Not like teenagers nowadays who don''t know the meaning of love. I am genuinely worried about the future generation.


    I am d my kids are not like that. I don''t want to praise myself, but I think I did an excellent job in raising them. Usually, rich kids will be spoiled, and that''s totally natural. Kids behave just like their parents.


    What they see and hear as a kid, what they experience, and what they feel. I could go into detail, but we are getting sidetracked."


    Eleanor released a soft groan and muttered, "As I was saying, I don''t like the future. I am afraid that humans are bing less and less human."


    After a brief pause, she added, "I don''t mean physically, by the way."


    "I literally have no idea what you are talking about. You dodged my question by shifting the topic. What is that saying… if you can''t convince them, confuse them. And you did just that."


    "Ba, you are turning thirty soon. Stop thinking that what you see and think is right, and others are wrong. Don''t judge unless you know the full story. You need to know and think from every perspective."


    Reba lowered her gaze and muttered, "But then I would always turn out wrong."


    Eleanor''s gaze softened, and she rubbed her head. She began to ponder as she reflected on what she had just said to Reba.


    ''It would be best to switch the topic.'' Eleanor uttered inwardly.


    "So… since Rudy is now… our Rudy. How are things going between you two?"


    Eleanor was genuinely curious to know the progress of Reba and Rudy''s rtionship. Since she couldn''t ask Rudy about it, she hoped to get answers from Reba.


    "What do you mean? Was something supposed to happen?"


    "It''s toote to y dumb. Like, why would you even try? I basically saw you grow up. I know everything about you. And I also know that you had a crush on Rudy ever since you were twelve."


    Eleanor stated with a judging look on her face, giving no options to Reba to defend herself.


    "I wouldn''t deny having a crush on him. But that was a childhood crush. Most girls have crushes at that age, and their crushes happen to be the person they are most close to, also someone older than them.


    I have never shared a moment with a man other than Rudy. Father was not… an ideal father. Also, that wasn''t the type of crush you were thinking of.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    At that time, I didn''t even know the meaning of romance. I just liked Rudy. But that changed and changed and changed. And now…"


    Reba released a soft sigh and chuckled, "I don''t know my feelings anymore. I love him. I want to kiss him and do things with him. But at the same time, I think it''s immoral."


    "So, in short, nothing has actually happened between you two," Eleanor groaned.


    "We have kissed! So many times!"


    "And? That''s normal."


    "I… let him touch my boobs!"


    "Bare?"


    "I was going to, but… we were… interrupted."


    "Did you suck him yet?"


    "No! Thatesst!"


    "I would keep doing him sexual favors if I was you. Don''t forget, he is always surrounded by girls more young and beautiful than us."


    "..."


    Reba stayed quiet as she took a moment to ponder her choices and ns.


    "How do I… suck him…? I have to take it in my mouth and…?"


    "You…" Eleanor raised her brow and squinted her eyes. "You have never seen porn before?"


    "..."


    "Doesn''t matter. Rudy will teach you. I was bad at it at first, too."


    Reba gulped and hesitantly asked, "But his… penis is so big."


    "You have seen his dick?"


    "idently, yes. It used to be so small and cute when he was a kid, but now it''s a monster."


    Eleanor couldn''t help but grin after hearing that.


    "Tell that to Rudy. I am sure he will be turned on."


    …


    Rudy was helping Lucy with breakfast when his phone buzzed.


    Lucy nced at Rudy from the corner of her eyes and said, "Who is so free to call you  so early at this hour?"


    It was from Lu B.


    "I have friends too."


    Rudy picked up the call and chuckled, "What? Are you missing me already?"


    [I found him.]


    "Found who? The statue man?"


    [The two terrorists who escaped. I found one of them. We just got a ping a few seconds ago.]


    "Oh? Today seems to be my good day."


    [You are not going to like where his current location is.]


    "Where?" Rudy''s grin vanished and got reced with a frown.
