In a daze, Eva Nightingale was suddenly lifted up, held tightly in his arms.
Originally, Eva was being pinned against the wall by him.
Unexpectedly lifted up, a bit surprised, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Lucas Knight's neck, clinging tightly to the man's muscular body.
Benjamin Grant's eyes felt sore, but he didn't dare to snatch Eva back; he just quietly watched as that man carried Eva away!

Eva was held by Lucas Knight back to the lounge.
Outside, a group of people were still making a noisy commotion.
As soon as they entered the room, Eva was placed on a lounge chair by the man, feeling a bit cold, he spoke in a chilling tone: "I'll give you time to deal with those disorderly people, hmm?"
He didn't want to see her entangled with Benjamin Grant again next time!
It was an eyesore.
Eva inexplicably caught the strong scent of jealousy from the man's words, that sour kind.
Before she could react, she saw Lucas Knight already getting up and striding out.
