Chapter 116

• After the checkup and receiving a thumbs-up from the doctor and his team, Carmen managed to slip out of the room when Molly got busy attending an official call. She had been meaning to talk to Ronin about the recent developments that, unfortunately, he had been a part of since the very beginning. She wondered if he deliberately kept it from her, and if that were the case, then why? Was he afraid she would deny it? Did he think she wouldn’t understand?
• What the hell was he thinking?
• Upon reaching the room he used as a home office, she hesitated for only a moment before letting her knuckles fall onto the door. The door opened with a sound of its own, as if it hadn’t been locked in the first place, and Ronin looked up from his desk, a flash of confusion passing over his handsome features.
