Chapter 265: Rose Tinted Glasses (2)

Inez stared at the man in both shock and sheer amazement when she saw that the man hadn’t answered her question and had instead gone looking for something to eat in her kitchen. She blinked her eyes before chasing after the man. When she saw him pulling out a packet of ham from her refrigerator, she couldn’t help but frown.

"I have ham?" she mused, but before Killian could answer her, she snatched the pack right out of his hands and said to him, "I don’t know about you, but I would like to have my kitchen intact. You know?"

"I am feeling a lot better. So, Joannes?" She nudged the man for an answer.
