“I was just worried it’s getting late. I didn’t want you to be unsafe alone…”
Declan’s brow tightened as he stepped in front of Eliana.

Declan’s comments felt ludicrous. Was he out of his mind?
“If there’s something wrong with your brain, go seek medical help.
But don’t stop me from hailing a taxi!”
Chided by Hannah, Declan remained motionless, his expression sour.
Eliana seemed concerned as she clutched Declan’s arm.

Seated in his red sports car, the night breeze tousled his hair, making his good looks even more striking.
Declan, however, narrowed his eyes involuntarily.
