Chapter 394- Crying
For the first time, Geena felt like Rafael Sinclair was nervous—more than her.
His green eyes which he took from Miles Sinclair were darting around taking in the décor of the room.
"These mini statues..." Rafael pointed to the small miniatures placed behind the glass of the showcase.
"They belong to the owner of this apartment," she explained to him with an uncertain smile, "Ethan’s friend owns this place..." She placed her hands in her pants pocket, "he needed a caretaker, and I needed a place to live near the campus."
There was again heavy silence hanging in the room.
Geena felt Rafael was avoiding eye contact, "Do you want coffee?" she asked him, picking up the tray a little clumsily.
Rafael hummed but kept looking around. Geena understood his situation. He led his whole life alone under the shadow of Nina Sinclair.
He never knew that he had a sibling and now when he was aware, he didn’t know how to handle that. Geena decided to take the lead.
"Sit down, Mr. Sinclair. I’ll bring you some coffee," before she could walk past him, her wrist was grabbed suddenly by the man.
"When did you come to know that... that..." he didn’t know how to finish it.
"That you’re my brother?" the smile vanished from her lips, "The nuns at the orphanage told me about my family without mentioning names."
