When she heard that an announcement was to be

made, Keira hastily said, “There’s no need for such an

Isla’s eyes cooled a fraction, and she gave a bitter, rueful smile. “Mr. Allen, that’s my sister. We were indeed together at the time…It was actually her who Rebecca first asked for help, but Keira’s always been rather aloof. She didn’t mean to turn Rebecca away.

Jake, you know about her personality.”

Take frowned. “She is indeed cold-hearted and aloof.
