Chapter 2996

Yet, Matthew remained silent, recalling Julie’s caution about strangers, no matter how friendly they seemed.

Marcus, patient and gentle, touched Matthew’s head, offering a simple “Good boy!”

This interaction caught Alexis’ attention, a quiet observer of the unfolding bond.

Feeling Marcus’ kind touch, Matthew couldn’t resist looking up at him, their eyes meeting in a moment filled with mutual affection.
