“Inez…” he called out gently, his brows furrowed.

It was Inez’s first time seeing his pained expression, so she was taken aback for a moment. It took her some time to regain her senses before she closed her eyes.

“Kieran, I’m a fiancée of the Campbell family. We aren’t in a relationship. If you do anything to me today, my reputation will be ruined.”

Kieran immediately sobered up upon hearing this.

“Sorry for my impertinence.”

He got up and sat on the chair next to her.

The imprints of his teeth were visible on his lower lip, forming a bloody streak. He was trembling, and his face was flushed crimson. It was obvious he was having a hard time.

The moment Kieran let go of Inez, she ran toward the door without looking back.

Kieran looked at her retreating figure and laughed bitterly to himself.

If only I had realized my feelings sooner. It’s only when I lose her that I feel the pain.

He tried to endure it, but the warmth intensified, setting his skin ablaze with a searing heat that seemed to ignite his being.

Just as he was on the brink of succumbing, the door was pushed open quickly.

Inez had returned and brought a manager to help him.

Kieran felt touched by Inez’s return.

Over at Harrick Villa, Zoey was puzzled when she noticed Cedrick walking down the stairs while supporting himself on the banister.

“Mr. Jenson, what happened to your leg? Is it rheumatism?”

Cedrick was burning with anger. As he limped, he replied, “Yes. My knee is hurting.”

Zoey looked at the sunny weather, confused. “But it didn’t rain last night in Salinsburgh. Why would you get rheumatism?”
