Vehicles bustled around them.”

When Keira turned her head to look over, Howard had already grabbed her arm, giving her a wary glance.

But Keira didn’t speak; instead, she calmly looked at

Keira didn’t offer any further explanation, just quietly watching Tom.

Keira frowned slightly.

While she was lost in her thoughts, Howard, in fear, immediately gestured with his hands, his posture very humble. “Please don’t bother. I’ll just go with you to get

some!”

After saying that, he snatched the feeding bottle from Keira’s hand, about to have Keira wait in the car when a honking sound came from within the line of cars.

Howard turned around to see that the cars up front

had moved, but theirs was still stationary.

And the cars they were blocking were all expensive luxury cars. How could Howard dare to delay?

Tom also frowned and asked. “Whose car is that?”
