Cohen seemed indifferent and careless, but his words shocked Anya and Jake.
Anya didn’t see it coming that he still remembered it.
Jake was surprised by the story.
That was why Anya told him that she and Cohen might know each other.
Awkwardness began to grow in the atmosphere, especially between Jake and Anya.
Pretending to be calm, Anya spoke first to stop the awkwardness, “What a surprise that you still remember it, Mr. Olson.”
She sat down next to Jake.
Jake played along and said, “It’s good that you guys are old–timers! That will make it easier for us to work together.”

He sounded like he still held a grudge.
Anya smiled back at him after a while of silence. “It was all history, Mr. Olson. We were just teens, and I didn’t know much about love and relationship.
“I believe you wouldn’t take that serious since you’ve made great achievements in your life, Mr. Olson.”
Cohen laughed. “I wouldn’t, of course. It was all history, as you said.

Jake realized something immediately.
Did Cohen cfor Anya?
But Anya was married and pregnant.
It would be far more than inappropriate of Cohen.
Jake was confused as well.
“I think we should…
wasn’t it?”
Cohen waved at Anya and stopped her. “Don’t be nervous, Ms. MacMillan. I’m just delighted to see an old friend of mine. That’s all.”
Anya nodded, but she was still confused.
“Let’s get down to business,” said Cohen as he put the knife and fork down.
“Sure.”
