Ralph and Hannah had not expected to see Alexander and Lily coming out from the lift. The four took a moment to respond as they faced each other.
“You?” Ralph frowned, not expecting to see him here.
Alexander was also surprised. Since he finished work early, he thought Lily must be bored from staying home for so long and decided to take her out to dinner. Still, he did not expect to bump into these two.
He glanced at Ralph casually and looked at Hannah. ‘There’s a strange vibe about them.’
Somehow, he felt that “Heather” looked slightly different than usual. However, he could not pinpoint what was different about her and did not overthink it since he had not met Heather that many times.
Alexander instinctively stood in front of Lily. ‘This woman is violent. Who knows when she might launch a sneak attack?’
Hannah only knew that the man before her had fought and seriously hurt her sister. She took a step back in fear, which took Alexander by surprise.
“What do you want?” Ralph saw Hannah taking a step back and heroically stood before her. “You dare to attack her with me around?”
Alexander did not know what to say. “Excuse us, please.” Not bothering to pay attention to Ralph, he stretched his hand protectively and escorted Lily toward the private room he had booked at the restaurant.
