Jamie imed she was full and didn''t want to eat anymore.


    However, Kieran nced over when she ate the snack earlier.


    There was a clear look of dislike in her eyes.


    Now, L opened the box and offered him a piece. "What are you thinking about, Uncle Kieran?"


    He had seemed distracted all day.


    Was it because they mentioned marriage, which made him think of the girl he liked?


    Kieran took a bite from the piece she handed him, then the other half.


    Whether intentional or not, L felt his soft lips brush against her finger, just a fleeting touch.


    She felt as though she had been burned by fire, almost jerking her hand back instinctively.


    But luckily, she reacted quickly, and her actions didn''t seem unusual to him.


    Only she knew that the finger he had touched still felt painfully hot.


    She quickly covered it up, grabbing another snack and nibbling on it with her head lowered.


    Kieran watched her eat like a rabbit nibbling grass, and his heart softenedpletely.


    He wanted to stay with her a little longer, but knowing she had work in the afternoon and understanding his own responsibilities, he decided to leave before she had to get to her tasks.


    "I''lle pick you up when you''re on your break."


    Kieran''srge hand gentlynded on her fluffy head.


    Just a little longer, and she would be exclusive to him.


    But when Kieran saw that Vince hadn''t left yet, his lips slowly curved into a faint smile.


    In fact, Vince was there the day he rushed to the hospital to find L and tell the media she was his fiancé.


    What if he had been a littleter that day...


    He lowered his gaze and smiled softly.


    L walked after a


    suw steps, he turned b


    & out of the set, and


    see


    Vince looking a


    corner of his eye. Conte


    MS


    He


    from


    "Take care." L''s sweet voice rang out, instantly cooling the lingering heat of


    early autumn.


    He nodded and turned to leave.


    After the car disappeared, L returned to the set. Thinking Vince would be leaving too, she headed over to their side.


    "Why didn''t Uncle Kieran stay a little longer?" Teddy took a bite of beef jerky, his words a little mumbled.


    L knocked his head lightly. "Don''t eat too much. You''re shooting right now. Don''t gain weight by the end."


    "Uncle Kieran''spany has things to take care of," she exined briefly.


    Amelia ate without a care. "These big CEOs are always busy. Vince, aren''t you leaving soon?"


    Ever since the blind date incident, Amelia had looked at him with indifference and slight disdain.


    Teddy looked confused. "Then why do you look like nothing''s bothering you?" She shot him a re. "What? Are you worried I''ll steal Jamie away from you?"


    Teddy, usually carefree, suddenly froze. His face remained rtively calm, but his ears were so red it looked like they might bleed.


    "W-what are you saying? Hasn''t your


    dad been pressuring you to get married? You''re so idle all the time. Tomorrow, I''ll tell Mr. Joyce that you''re cking off!"


    By now,


    like had be familiar


    with each


    other and often quarreled


    apvel


    like children in kindergarten, something L was used


    to seeing.


    Vince seemed deep in thought as he nced at the blunt, big guy and then at his younger sister.


    This kid seemed to be trying to woo his sister.


    Jamie, awkwardly looking over, said, "Vince, they just like to bicker. Don''t pay attention to anything they say."
