Lewis's face stiffened.

He glanced over at old Mrs. Horton, but she was focused on Nathan and Oliver, not sparing him even a glance.

Lewis clenched his jaw and tightened his fists, then cautiously called out, "Grandma…"

Keira frowned at those words, clearly wanting to say something. But when she glanced at old Mrs. Horton, she held back.

Keira understood. He didn't want to argue with them in front of his grandma, so she immediately followed him.

She quickly joined him, watching as he reached into his pocket, pulled out a cigarette, and lit it.
