Chapter 479 Stealing His Attention


Watching from the second floor, Lizzie revealed a smile.

"What happened?" Cyrus asked upon exiting from his art studio.

"I'll go see what happened, Grandma." Jonathan couldn't ignore the growing anxiety within him. He believed it had something to do with that crash he had heard.

Her abundant life experiences made her apathetic toward minor things like this. All she cared about at that moment was this collaboration!
