Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 981 Just Used Him As a Pawn in Her Game

Tessa propped her chin up, glued to the news online, then grinned, "Oh, by the way, I'm gonna take Raymond some dinner. Heard he's still burning the midnight oil, poor guy." Wind's face fell when he heard that.

Tessa grabbed the lunchbox next to her and bounced out the door.

Wind watched her leave, his eyes full of longing.

The Smith family had trusted him to protect Tessa, a big deal for him. He was their head of security and the best in the biz.

But he broke the rules; he had feelings for Tessa.

Even though Tessa was super tough on her enemies, she always spoke in this sweet, innocent tone.
