She just couldn't figure out what he was truly scheming In this dangerous situation and in such a perilous place, he placed himself on the frontline. If anything went wrong, he wouldn't be able to escape either! Kayla felt that Pete was like an enigma. Every move he made was impossible to predict It was as it, despite standing in front of her, he was like an elusive breeze that couldn't be grasped. He made her uneasy, yet she found herself inexplicably drawn to him. She continued to follow him.
