Reuben stared at Lina's face with his eyes wide open.
"Kitten?" He muttered and blinked his wide eyes in hopes of getting an answer from her.
However, what he got in return was not an answer but a furious glare.
'Stop looking at me like you are some abandoned puppy!' Lina scowled at him and then turned to look at her uncles.
"I need to speak to Reuben alone for some time. Excuse us." She announced in a calm voice and then looked back at the man who stood frozen in the same position.
"Let's go!" She rolled her eyes at him and caught hold of his hand before dragging him towards the stairs.
Reuben did not resist her forceful actions and silently followed after her.
His eyes switched between the woman who was striding ahead and their clasped hands.
"Wait!"
A loud scream made them halt in their steps and turn around.
Facing them once again, Lina and Reuben observed how Stacy was the only one seated in the same place as before while the men were on their feet glaring at them.
