Chapter 1754

Fiona could barely keep up with Alec's steady pace.

"Keep your back straight, and stride out," Alec instructed, taking his time as usual.

Fiona shot him a sidelong glare. She managed only a few steps before she was gasping for air.

Seeing Fiona's pace slow to a crawl, Alec suddenly picked her up and slung her over his shoulder.

"Ah! Alec! Put me down! Put me down!" she shrieked.
