Dax glared at Steven with his fingers tightly clenched. “Just you wait and see.”

I stared at Dax in surprise.

He was still giving Dax a hostile glare, and it wasn’t until everyone had left that he slowly regained his composure.

“The sudden events in the Lincoln family… It all happened too quickly,” I whispered. ” Steve, are you sure you had nothing to do with this?”

But regardless, he had stayed up all night without eating or sleeping, so he must have been hungry. So, I took him out for a meal and tucked him into bed afterward.
