Alexander was also surprised. Since he finished work early, he thought Lily must be bored from staying hfor so long and decided to take her out to dinner. Still, he did not expect to bump into these two.
He glanced at Ralph casually and looked at Hannah. ‘There's a strange vibe about them.” Somehow, he felt that “Heather” looked slightly different than usual. However, he could not pinpoint what was different about her and did not overthink it since he had not met Heather that many times.
Alexander instinctively stood in front of Lily. ‘This woman is violent. Who knows when she might launch a sneak attack?’ Hannah only knew that the man before her had fought and seriously hurt her sister. She took a step back in fear, which took Alexander by surprise.

Hannah did not want to deal with them and felt relieved seeing them leaving, but Ralph blocked Alexander's path. “Hold on!” Alexander frowned. “What?” “Apologize to Annie!” Ralph figured Heather had looked down on him and must have thought he was not manly enough to confront Alexander.
‘If I don’t do something, she might think I'm a coward!" However, he had no idea that the one present was not Heather but Hannah.
Hannah did not want an apology, only wishing they could go away sooner and that the scary man would leave her sight.
“Who?” Alexander did not catch what Ralph said. ‘Who is Annie? Why must | apologize to her?’ “Cut your act!” Ralph noticed Alexander's puzzled expression and realized he might not know he was referring to Heather. He moved slightly away as he said, “You won't admit that you've hurt her, won't you? Lily, it's not the first twe've met, and you've never calleduncle. | heard you're from the Lodge family. Haven't they taught you any manners?” Thinking he was their uncle, Ralph tried to bully Lily.
Lily gave him a casual glance. ‘Well, we did meet before, but | hardly know you."
