"Are you feeling better now?"
After the Gagnon Family's top brass had left, Wyatt Barnes looked at Winnie Romero, who had just taken a Grade One Return-Life Pill, with a face full of concern.
"Mhm."
Winnie Romero nodded gently. At this moment, the icy frost on her breathtakingly beautiful face thawed a little, inadvertently revealing a faint blush.
"Why... Why did you do that just now?"
Soon after, Winnie Romero's autumnal eyes hardened as she gazed directly at Wyatt Barnes.
"What do you mean, 'do that just now'?"
Wyatt Barnes froze, unsure of what Winnie Romero was asking.
"I mean just now... If it weren't for you acting in time against that old man, he wouldn't have spared me."
Winnie Romero explained.
As the person involved, she couldn't have been clearer about what had happened.
Wyatt Barnes had acted to save her.
Of course, she could see that what he did was risky, and that he might have been killed after saving her.
"I won't let anything happen to you."
