Chapter 344 A Kite With Its Lines Cut

Eager for an answer, Nancy tightly grasped Lewis’ arm.

Several moments later, Lewis leaned forward and tapped his cigarette against the table to remove.

Nancy was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Are you aware that your old man can’t even be bothered to return home nowadays? What do you mean ‘we haven’t come to that yet’?

good-”

Lewis interrupted her before she could finish speaking, “Enough. I’ve heard enough of that.”

Standing up, he shifted his frosty gaze to Nancy. “If you’re really concerned about me, stop

meddling in my affairs. Be it Kiran or Robert, I’ll deal with them. You can stop fretting over them.”
