“Where is that man?”
“He left, said there’s something urgent,” Auntie remembered something and added, “Oh, by the way,
he helped you pay the money, quite a nice young man.”
Aria lowered her eyes, not knowing who brought her to the clinic, “This favor, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance to repay.”

Kane returned to the villa in the afternoon, pushed open the bedroom door, but found no one in
sight. He then realized that Aria had not returned yet. He picked up the phone and called Aria.
Powered off.
Suddenly remembered that it was basically difficult to catch a taxi in that remote suburb, his heart inexplicably tightened, grabbed his coat and hurried out the door.
Just as he entered the courtyard, a slender woman slowly came into his view. Her pale face regained
some color in the lingering sunset, appearing particularly bright and beautiful.
Kane’s tense expression visibly relaxed, he took a step towards her, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her towards him, almost bumping into his arms.
“Why was your phone turned off?”
Faced with his questioning, Aria was stunned for a few seconds and calmly replied, “The
went out.”

When she was in the clinic, her phone had already run out of battery.
The kind–hearted aunt gave her some change and let her take the subway back.
The subway station is also 2 kilometers away from Moonrise Apartments. It was her first time walking such a long distance in one day.

Chapter 166
Looking at her indifferent appearance, Kane felt a bit uneasy, his voice low, “Won’t you call me?”
Aria froze, raising her head in surprise and meeting his eyes. “What difference does it make if I call you? Would you leave Seraphina behind to come pick me up for me?”
“I will have someone pick you up.”
“Thank you then,” Aria laughed, pulling her hand away and walking past him.
Kane turned around and his gaze fell on her halting steps. He furrowed his brow, wanting to look
away.
As Aria was about to step into the elevator, he came up behind her and lifted her up sideways.
Aria was surprised and snapped back, “Kane, what are you doing? Put me down!”
He interrupted in a low voice, “Don’t move.”
Aria looked at him in confusion.
The moment she thought of his favoritism towards Seraphina today, and then remembered how he abandoned her and made her walk ten kilometers under the scorching sun, her heart gradually cooled down inch by inch, until it no longer burned for him.
Stepping into the living room, Kane only then set her down, “I’ll go get the first aid kit.”
“If Alpha Ravencrest felt guilty…” she began, looking towards the man’s figure, “you might as well spare my brother.”
Kane stopped in his tracks, turned to look at her, his eyes inscrutable, “Are you talking conditions
with me?”
She met his gaze and said, “What if?”
The man’s face at the moment was full of intriguing meaning, “What qualifications do you have to
negotiate terms with me?”
“You spared him this time, I can give the position of Luna of the Ravencrest Pack to Seraphina!”
