Lissy Lock was taken aback, and he continued, "You should know, I am there for every situation."
She nodded, but her heart instantly felt a greater sense of unease.
"However, John Fame, there are some things you cannot do or help me with."
"But I can assist with most."
Lissy Lock leaned her face in and whispered, "Like having a child? I heard it hurts a lot, and you cannot bear that pain for me."
John Fame looked at her, finally sighed in resignation, and pulled her into his arms.
Lissy Lock laid her head on his chest, taking in his familiar faint scent, which calmed her down somewhat.
It seemed her playful words just now did have some effect on him.
However...
"John Fame, you saw through my thoughts immediately. When I said I wanted to sue Max Coleman, you understood, didn't you?"
"Hmm."
Lissy Lock bit her lip, "Do you want me to tell you verbally?"
"Hmm."
"...Alright. Actually, you and I are both clear that Max Coleman and Jim Fame have always been in cahoots."
