C105 The Gentleness of Reece.

In the evening.

In the dining room of the Tillman family.

Loran, who had just entered the room, glanced at the dinner on the table and his eyes lit up. "Sixth Bro, this is so sumptuous."

"..." Reece did not respond, but he looked up at the direction of Lydia's room on the second floor.

"Hmm, hmm, hmm... Sixth Bro, you must be rewarding me, right?" Loran, who had been staring at the food, was completely unaware of the man's gaze. He was extremely touched.

It was worth it for him to run errands for Sixth Bro. It seemed that Sixth Bro still cared about him.

Yes, he still cared about him.

Feeling hungry, Loran sat down and picked up his chopsticks to eat the boiled meat slices.

"Wait." Suddenly, the man opposite him spoke.

Loran paused and looked at Reece in confusion. "Wait... What are you waiting for?"

"She hasn't come down yet." Reece said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Loran was slightly stunned, but he immediately understood what he meant.

Sixth Brother said that Lydia had not come down yet, so he could not eat.

Uh...

The corner of Loran's mouth twitched and he smiled bitterly. "Sixth Bro, are you so lustful?"

"Alright."

Hearing the man's straightforward answer, Loran put down his chopsticks and covered his heartache. "Sixth Bro, this will cause our friendship to sink."

And it was the kind that couldn't even be salvaged!

Reece ignored Loran's topic and took a sip of tea. "Have you settled the matter?"

"Yes, both of my legs are broken." When it came to serious matters, Loran immediately became serious. "The person has been thrown back to the Woodward family."

"Inform the rest that the Woodward family is not allowed to take even half a step out of the Goulcrest." The man's eyes narrowed into a slit, and his eyes were filled with a deep and unfathomable darkness. "Only then will we be able to collect some interest. We can't let anyone escape."

"Alright."

Loran nodded.

The two of them chatted for a while longer before Lydia finally walked down from the second floor.

Seeing her come down, Loran, who was about to starve, felt as if he had seen hope.

Oh my god, it's finally time to eat.

He waited for Lydia to sit down and picked up his chopsticks. In an instant, he shot a questioning look at his sixth brother, "Brother..." Can you eat?

"Eat."

Seeing that Reece had spoken, Loran picked up his chopsticks and started wolfing down his food.

Other than the sound of Loran eating, there was only the sound of chopsticks colliding with each other.

The two people at the table continued to eat their food as usual, not exchanging a single word.

Reece picked up a small lobster and quietly peeled it. One, two... six.

After he had filled the small plate with food, he stopped and pushed it in front of Lydia. "Ona went to the supermarket today and bought some fresh food."

Loran stared at the lobster meat and felt his heart ache. The difference between a wife and a brother was really huge. It was so heartbreaking. What should I do?

Lydia glanced at the lobster meat in front of her in a daze. This time, she did not reject him coldly. Instead, she picked up a piece and put it into her mouth to slowly chew. Her red lips curled up slightly.

"Thank you."

It was the first time she had smiled at him in such a long time.

Although there was some courtesy mixed in, the man's dark eyes lit up. "I like to eat. I, Ora, will make more for you tomorrow."

"There's no need to trouble yourself. You will get tired of eating it every day." Lydia quickly shook her head and refused.

In the past, this crippled left leg had been a hurdle that she couldn't cross. That was why she had treated him coldly.

Now that the misunderstanding had been resolved, her hatred for him had slowly dissipated, and her attitude had also softened.

However, this did not mean that she had made up her mind to leave him.

Therefore, she did not give him another chance to get close to her.

Lydia wiped her mouth and stood up with a smile, "I'm full. You guys can eat slowly."

Seeing her get up and leave, Reece's eyes darkened once again.

The distance between them was still too far away.

After that, he had no appetite for the rest of the meal.

"Hmm, this is really fragrant and delicious." Loran, who was eating beside him, couldn't help but praise her. He then continued to eat.

Because he was too hungry, the sweetness of the food had completely forgotten about him. His mouth kept making noises.

Phew, phew.

This sound annoyed the man so much that he frowned. "It's already nine o'clock."

"Really?" Loran, who was busy eating, did not realize that his sixth brother was talking to him. He innocently glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "It's only eight-thirty!"

Reece said expressionlessly, "You should leave now."

Loran paused for a second, then put down his bowl and chopsticks in a pained manner. He stared at the man in front of him, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction. "Don't be angry at me, Sixth Brother. Your wife has been neglecting you."

"Isn't that right?" Reece's expression was one of indifference.

Not right!

Not good!

But Loran didn't say it out loud.

Loran wiped his mouth and said faintly, "Sixth Brother, don't be in such a hurry."

"..." Reece didn't respond, but his dark eyes glanced at the seat that had just been occupied by Lydia.

Perhaps he was really in a hurry.

That night, Reece finally realized how painful it was to be unable to love someone.

It was also on that day that he finally understood what it felt like to be imprinted in someone's heart.

When he sent Loran off, it was already drizzling outside.

Reece stood by the window for a long time. When the window was blurred by the rain, he finally looked away and walked up to the second floor.

When he pushed open the door, he saw the little person curled up into a ball on the floor because of the pain in his left leg.

Reece frowned and lifted his leg to carry her.

"... Reece?" Suddenly, her body was lifted up by a warm arm. Lydia raised her head and saw the man's face. She struggled to get down.

But the next second, her shoulders were gripped even tighter. "Don't move."

The man's deep voice floated down from above her head. Although he didn't say anything, his voice carried a force that could not be refused.

While Lydia was distracted, Reece had already carried her onto the bed.

"Does your left leg hurt?"

Only when the man's voice rang in her ears did she pull her thoughts back.

Does it hurt? It hurts.

It was an unbearable pain.

However, in front of the man, she stiffened her neck and replied, "It's alright. It hurts a little when it's cold."

However, in the next second, the pain from her left leg struck her. Her face turned pale, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on the blanket.

Although she moved very softly in order to not let the man notice, Reece still noticed her.

Reece rubbed his palms together and felt the warmth in his palms. He then bent down and lifted up Ava's left foot. "Are you feeling better?"

"!!!" As she was busy warming her feet, her heart skipped a beat.

This man... was covering her feet?

Reece had been extremely cold to her in the past. For the first time, she felt his tenderness.

At that moment, her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Her calm lake of emotions rippled because of the man's actions.
