Lewis Horton hesitated as he was about to take Keira back to the Freeman Sect, his face a mix of shock and uncertainty while he repeatedly furrowed his brow.
Eventually, he couldn't help but blurt out, "Can we not return to the Freeman Sect?"
Keira Olsen was startled. "Why?"
Lewis coughed. "I've heard that the Freeman Sect has strict rules, and they'll surely punish you for this. I don't want to see you suffer."
Keira laughed upon hearing this.
There was a flicker of tenderness in her eyes, and she sighed. "But I must return. My master is like a father to me. I must obey him."
Lewis clenched his jaw. "Alright then."
With his gaze fixed ahead, his mind was consumed with thoughts of what he might do if the Sect Leader of the Freeman Sect decided to punish Keira. How could he save her from such a fate?
Tangled in these thoughts, they soon arrived at the Freeman Sect.
Lewis parked the car and followed closely behind Keira.
