Keira looked at Lewis in surprise.

When he came, he had casually mentioned that

Madeleine had saved his life, but he hadn’t shared the

details.

Had it also been a case of abduction and trafficking…?

Only, unlike her own situation, had he nearly been

Madeleine.

While she was thinking, Lewis had already started to speak, his voice deep and gentle, with a hint of tenderness. “Sorry, I misspoke.”

After leaving those words, he didn’t give Madeleine a chance to speak any further and pulled Keira away.

Keira left the hospital room with him, and suddenly, the desperate, heartbreaking cries of Madeleine came

from behind them.

Unfortunately, Lewis never looked back.

Keira was no saint; she didn’t feel pity for Madeleine and only found her pitiful.

And the reason Lewis, a responsible man, was so

heartlessly rejecting Madeleine at this moment was because of his deep affection for Keira.

She looked at Lewis holding her hand and squeezed back firmly.

She thought, as long as Lewis didn’t let go of her hand, perhaps she would never let go of his hand in this lifetime…

The two left the hospital and drove away.
