Before Keira could respond, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her view of Ryan.

She paused, glancing up at Lewis. His face was as neutral as ever, and the move seemed almost unintentional. But knowing his jealous streak, Keira couldn’t help but laugh softly to herself and turned her gaze back to the scene ahead.
