What Separates Me and You

Chapter 191 What Had She Done Wrong

An irate tone crept into Lewis’ voice. “Which part of that did you not understand?”

Kiran was rendered speechless for a while. Then, he immediately apologized, “I’m sorry for being intrusive.” He handed the documents he was holding to Lewis and continued, “Two documents are waiting for your approval.”

He quickly stood and greeted, “Mr. Alvarez.”

Indifferent, Lewis shot him an expressionless glance. “Is she still inside?”

Dr. Halliday bobbed his head up and down at high speed. “That’s right. It’s been two days. I’ve
