Yvette walked out groggily.
She plopped down on a chair opposite William and asked, “What on earth do you need from me at this hour?
William, recovered from the alcohol, stared at Yvette with utter seriousness.
“Yvette, if you still see me as your brother–in–law, answer me this. Five years ago, you suddenly appeared at Tyler’s apartment in the suburbs. Was it your sister who called you there, or was there really something going on between you and Tyler?”
Yvette pursed her lips, surprised that William still remembered something that had happened so many
years ago.
She glanced guiltily at him, evading the question. “William, it’s been so many years. Why are you still hung up over that?”

William lowered his head and sneered again, disdain filling his eyes as he looked back at Yvette.
