Time has been kind to him. Even after six years, it seems to have left no trace on him. He remains as handsome as ever, with a chiseled face, bold eyebrows, a straight nose, and those sensual thin lips. It’s hard to find any wrinkles on his face.

If there’s anything different from six years ago, it appears he has become more mature and perhaps even more reserved.

"If you want to look at me, there’s no need to sneak glances. You can openly look at me." Kyle Kinston’s voice suddenly echoed in the car, and the next moment, his half-lowered phoenix eyes lifted to meet hers.

Mabel Quinn was stunned. These words...he seemed to have said to her back then as well. But at that time, her feelings while stealing glances at him were completely different from now.

"We...don’t know each other. Why are you holding my hand like this?" She cleared her throat and asked.

His gaze was deep. If he let go at that moment, he feared the Full Moon’s pain would instantly take over his entire body, making him feel unbearable agony.

Fate Link was a remedy for the Kinston Family. As long as there was physical contact, there would be no pain. This sensation should be unfamiliar to him, after all, he had just found his Fate Link and just began to experience this feeling.

But strangely, he felt this sensation was somehow familiar, as if he had experienced it before.

What was he thinking? He chuckled and said lightly, "We weren’t acquainted before, but from today on, we are. And just holding your hand is already my lowest boundary."

His words not only surprised Mabel but also left the Driver in the front seat dumbfounded, nearly causing a tremble in the steering wheel.

These words were so easily misconstrued, leading to conjecture.

Mabel Quinn hesitated, then said to Kyle Kinston, "Mr. Kinston, I don’t know what you mean by these words, but I think it’s inappropriate. I have no intention towards you. I believe giving each other respect should be the lowest boundary."

"Is that so?" His body suddenly leaned towards her, instantly giving her a strong sense of oppression within the car. "What if I said you’re allowed to have intentions towards me?"

She looked into those suddenly close phoenix eyes, feeling dazed once again. Inheritance can be a peculiar thing; her daughter’s facial features mostly resembled her own, except for those phoenix eyes which were so much like his.

And does he know? Does he know that the child he never wanted now is five years old and so adorable?

"There’s already someone in my heart, so it’s impossible for me to have any intentions towards you," she said.

The next moment, she abruptly felt Kyle Kinston’s fingers tighten around hers, a sudden pain shooting through her hand. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Her brows furrowed, and she gasped softly, only to hear Kyle Kinston’s voice tinged with danger resonate, "What did you say? There’s someone in your heart?"

"I’m already 29 years old. Is it strange to have someone in my heart?" Mabel Quinn scoffed, "Does Mr. Kinston think a 29-year-old woman would have no romantic history, as blank as a sheet of paper?"
