Devin pulled Sabrina aside hastily; his heart skipped a beat at her words.
"She is just joking and doesn't know any of them.Kane, have you taken your meal?"
He tried to rectify the situation by changing the topic.
Kane only threw him a glance without uttering any words.
Eventually, the man with an intimidating aura a while ago gradually softened and replied, "Yeah, I have eaten."
"Ah! Good to hear that.Do you like the book today? If you have finished reading, how about I get you a few new ones?"
Devin picked up the book on the table instinctively and flipped through it.
Kane tilted his head slightly and pondered for a while.
After quite a while, he nodded and asked eagerly, "On pharmaceutical? I want more sophisticated ones."
Sabrina, who was standing alongside Devin, gaped at him.
Devin replied casually, "Sure.I will get you some later."
Without hesitation, he stepped out to get him the books as requested.
Only then did a dumbfounded Sabrina come to her senses.
She turned to look at Kane and asked quizzically, "Kane, what have they done to you? Did they bully you? Don't be afraid.I'm actually here to your rescue.No matter what, I won't let them pick on you."
She sat down slowly in front of him, recalling how the two persons had carried out a body search on her a while ago.
She even suspected that Kane had lost his mind after being tortured by them.
Kane stopped flipping through the book and asked curiously, "Are you talking to me?"
Sabrina was stunned and asked in bewilderment, "Huh? Of course, I'm talking to you.After all, there isn't anyone else here other than the two of us."
"Who are you then?" Kane asked impatiently; his forehead creased into a frown.
Sabrina's eyes widened in disbelief, and she was rendered speechless.
My goodness! I'm not hearing things, am I? Has he forgotten about me? A while later, she asked resignedly, "Are you having a ploy in your mind again? Can you stop being so impulsive? Could you please let me know in advance before you decide to do anything in the future?"
Sabrina was convinced that he was putting on a show and pretended not to recognize her again.
That was how he chased her away previously.
Nonetheless, there was a sudden change in the man's countenance, and the coldness in his eyes exacerbated.
