Chapter 43: To hear your voice

Eyes focus on Nesta.

The instant she arrives, her steps direct towards me. Maybe because of fury, her gaze fails to capture her son with her husband being well on the other side. Everything I can see at the current is her exasperation on me. "You! How dare you harm my son?!"

With her eyes flickering beneath anger, she raises her hand. Ready to lay hand on my cheek. And I take a step back promptly to dodge. But who would have expected Ken to step in the scene? As soon as Nesta throws her palm up in the air, Ken stands across me.

His grasp seizes her wrist to cease her from hitting me. It was quick. "Please restrain yourself, Miss Nesta. We are in public now" He warns. His action draws all the attention as silence conquers over the situation. Did Ken find out the truth? No, it is unfeasible.
