Judith noticed it and immediately begged for clemency, "Old fella, Edgar is risking his life, so don't vent your anger on me!"

... Edgar almost choked from anger. This wretch had no conception of gratitude!

Kyler stepped in and winked at Judith, "Judy, does your arm hurt?"

Taking the hint, she held her arm and rushed up dramatically, "Kyler, my arm hurts. Quickly... check and see if I'm disabled..."

The tension eased up immediately.

Whiling scolding her, Kyler didn't forget to remind her, "Girl, are you crazy? Don't you know how difficult it is to serve Victor? You may die. He is good-looking, so what? He is old, and you should turn to young boys!"

Victor was speechless...

He was just ten years older than her.

After the check-up, Kyler returned to his office and saw Victor drinking tea.

"Why are you still here?"

"How is she?"

"She is made of iron, and you..."

Kyler came up and took a closer look, "You stopped blushing?"

Victor raised his eyes, sending a shiver through Kyler. He didn't dare to tease the man again.

"You wait for so long just to ask about her condition?"

His silence aroused Kyler's curiosity, "You don't look like a nosy person. Are you losing your head and falling in love with the girl?"

"Within two days after her comeback, she injured the siblings of the Pate family. Be it reason or emotion, I couldn't sit by." Victor said calmly.

Kyler waved his hand, indicating that he didn't believe it.

"Come on, don't be so official. When you shut Miss Pate out of the gate, did you care that she is your future fiancée?"

"Miss Pate is the future fiancée of the Reid family." He replied imperturbably.

"Tsk-tsk, your grandfather has put in the efforts for nothing all these years. In the end, your relationship is still not nurtured. To be engaged soon, you still call her Miss Pate. So, you're married for your family."

Kyler rolled his eyes helplessly, "If your cousin were not paralyzed, I don't think your grandfather would let the granddaughter of his close friend marry you and suffer. A man like you doesn't deserve a wife!"

Victor was rendered speechless...

"What else keeps you here?" Kyler started to expel the guest, "I can't even drink freely in your presence."

Victor tapped the desk with his fingertip for quite a while, "Keep an eye on her, don't let her show up before my face again."

"Return the earring, she won't come to you again."

Victor's eyes glittered, "The gemstone on that earring is special. I saw it for once at Drug Island of Golden Triangle a few years ago. I suppose, she is not as simple as it appears, right?"

The corner of Kyler's mouth twitched, and he found it necessary to explain.

"You are retired. Why do you care? Didn't you investigate her background? She's clean. Those drug traffickers and mafias have nothing to do with her."

He thought for a while and continued, "That gem was given by someone seemingly very important to her. One year ago, a robber stole her earring, and she rushed alone into their den. She almost got herself killed. To her, the object values more than her life. Give it back to her, or your life will be restless."

He suddenly added, "Don't you think too much about it! The girl knows that she can't beat you and thus tries to outsmart you. I'm sure she has no feelings for an old man like you!"

Victor was speechless...

"As I said, you don't deserve a wife. Don't you get it?" Kyler began to shoo the guest, "Come on, go, I'm pretty busy."

When Victor closed the door, Kyler gave him a heads-up, "Tell your grandfather that I'll introduce my god granddaughter to him another day!"

He squeezed his third eye area. Kyler was planning to protect her till the end.
