A look of confusion flickered across Lowell's face as his brows knit together.
Without missing a beat, the bodyguard standing nearby firmly replied, “That's a lie! When we cin, she was
preparing medicine.”
An overwhelming sense of helplessness washed over her. She didn’t know how to clear things up with these
