Lewis didn’t say anything more and turned to leave.

Frankie frowned and said, “Lewis, how could you be so ungrateful? You….”

Before he could finish his sentence, Lewis abruptly halted and whipped his head around.

crawling out from hell, making Frankie choke on his

fierce countenance just now made Frankie realize he wasn’t one to be trifled with.

As Frankie kept his eyes on Lewis, he saw the aggression that threatened to overflow from Lewis fading away as he approached Keira.

By the time Lewis returned to her side, he was just that slightly cold-hearted normal man once more.

scent of vanilla.

Her heart became tender.

Seeing that Lewis was only wearing a black shirt, she picked up the little puppy. “Let’s go.”

“Okay.”
