Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1761

To play it safe, Alec said, "Stick with me for the next few days, okay? No wandering off."

Fiona thought for a moment and then hit him with a thought-provoking question, "If I stay by your side, am I the one protecting you, or are you protecting me?" "Are you messing with me now?"

Alec gave Fiona's cheek a light pinch and teased, "With your smarts, they'd have you on a leash in no time! Remember when you gave a hundred bucks to that homeless guy, and he nearly ran off with you? Where'd you pick up this bleeding heart of yours?"

Fiona batted Alec's hand away, pouting, "That guy was really down on his luck. He didn't have an arm and hadn't seen a bath in days."

"Thank goodness Uncle Rick swooped in, or you'd have lost a limb!"

"That was ages ago! I was just eight then, and now I'm nearly eighteen! Alec, can you stop treating me like a kid, like Mom and Dad do?"
