Chapter 427

The night was dark, and the evening breeze was cooling.

Felicia’s hand froze awkwardly in mid–air after being rejected, making her look particularly foolish.

Normally, Felicia would never humiliate herself by clinging to someone, much less insist on tending to someone’s wound. However, this time was different as Stephan had genuinely saved her life.
