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?”

Nevertheless, she managed to process the meaning behind his words almost immediately-Lewis disagreed with her proposal. Nancy was vexed but did a good job keeping her temper in check.

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
