Keira never knew that an embrace could be so warm, bestowing a sense of security in one's heart.
At the moment of the hug, she even felt as though her hollow heart had been filled.
Even women who were always strong and independent sometimes needed consolation and companionship.

His voice carried uncertainty.
Keira sighed inwardly, ready to confirm her identity when suddenly a commotion erupted from the doorway.
The nanny she hired was shouting, "What are you doing? This is the South residence. How can you trespass like this?"
Then came Howard's mother's loud and aggressive voice. "What South residence? Who are you? Where's Keera? You're blocking us from entering. Is she inside fooling around with some other man?"
