When the elevator reached the ground floor, Tilda stepped out and felt a difort in her heels, likely due to rubbing against her new shoes.


    She frowned and slowed her pace.


    Lyndon noticed her difort and stopped.


    “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Still dizzy?”


    Tilda shook her head.


    “No, it’s just that my heels are hurting from rubbing against my new shoes.


    ”


    Lyndon nced at her shoes and then back at her face.


    “Let me carry you.

    Before she could react, he scooped her up in his arms.


    Lyndon’s sudden move made Tilda gasp, her face turning pale and her body tensing up.


    She protested, “I can walk by myself.N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.

    Tilda’s body remained stiff as a stone.


    Anyone watching might think he had kidnapped her.


    Was she so disgusted by him?


    Was it because of Keanu?


    Slowly, Tilda stretched her arms around his neck.


    Seeing this, Lyndon asked, “Was Mr.


    Wright your first love?”


    He recalled Ivy mentioning that Tilda loved her first love deeply.
