Everyone was stunned.
Mason Nightshade took two steps forward, turned slightly, blocking everyone's view, and pinched her hand.
At this angle, no one could see.
Aurelia Shaw was taken aback, then immediately understood. He was comforting her, and warmth surged in her heart.
Nancy Carter was the first to react: "What are you two doing together?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a flash of coldness in Mason Nightshade's eyes. Instantly, she felt a chill down her spine and began to tremble, realizing her tone was too bold.
"Are you questioning what I said?" Mason asked coldly.
"No, no... I'm not." Nancy stammered, feeling a little panicked. The injury on her hand from last time still hurt.
Mason Nightshade was clearly protecting Aurelia Shaw, and nothing she said would matter in this situation. It was just a pity for Isabel Bennett, who liked this man so much, but he had let down her heartfelt feelings.
