"Yeah, I heard our mission ran into trouble, and he’s pretty anxious about it."
Kyle Keaton’s concern for this Westmarch escort mission really surprised Thomas Grant.
As for Kyle calling out July Quinn’s na earlier, Thomas thought he might have ntioned it over the phone, but didn’t connect the two together.
But he didn’t expect that the more he ntioned Kyle’s anxiety, the more excited Wendy Tierney beca.
"He’s pretty anxious?"
At that mont, Wendy’s eyes were sparkling.
She had been close to Kyle Keaton before, so she knew that he’s in a position of influence and can handle any situation calmly.
But this ti, he was so anxious because their squad’s escort mission had gone wrong...
It must be because of her, right?
Look, she’s the only woman in the entire Vanguard Corps right now.
Kyle must be worried she got hurt, which is why he’s so anxious!
Thinking about it this way, Wendy actually felt grateful for the Alpha rcenary Corps’ ambush.
If it wasn’t for them putting the entire squad in danger, Lord Keaton wouldn’t have taken his feelings for her so seriously.
He’s probably rushing here to make sure she’s alright.
This ans she might be welcoming Lord Keaton’s confession soon?
The more Wendy thought about it, the more troubled she felt.
The surprise ca so suddenly that she didn’t know how she’d respond if Lord Keaton confessed to her!
Wendy was so nervous she almost started fidgeting, while Thomas Grant, the perennial bachelor, remained oblivious.
He just started yelling at the other mbers of the Vanguard Corps: "Lord Keaton is coming, all of you, stay sharp."
"Is Lord Keaton coming here? What’s going on?"
"Could it be that this mission has another hidden big boss?"
"Could it be he’s coming for Susan Carter? After all, she’s the top leader of the rcenary corps."
Wayne Shelby and others began to speculate.
Only Wendy rolled her eyes quietly.
Lord Keaton is definitely coming for her!
Just watch! Soon enough, she’ll show all the singles what true romance looks like!
July Quinn and Owen Shaw worked together to move Susan Carter to the seat next to Darren, overhearing the Vanguard Corps discussing "Lord Keaton."
The two of them unconsciously exchanged a glance, seeing the sa question in each other’s eyes.
Could this Lord Keaton be the one they both know?
But that question lingered for only three seconds.
After those three seconds, they went back to their tasks.
Because whether or not that Lord Keaton is the person they know, Darren’s wounds still needed tending, and July Quinn’s stomach still needed filling.
So, Owen Shaw continued to clean Darren’s wounds while July Quinn opened another box of instant noodles...
About ten minutes later, a black Rolls-Royce Cullinan stopped in front of the gas station, followed by other border rescue and police vehicles.
The car door of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan opened first from the inside, and a tall, upright man swiftly got out and strode forward.
At that mont, Wendy Tierney felt her whole heart almost leap out.
Lord Keaton!
It’s really Lord Keaton.
Just like before, he carried an air of nobility, and his exceptional handsoness was simply irresistibly charming.
However, today’s Lord Keaton had a few more hints of urgency on his face than usual, although he didn’t seem as calm and graceful as usual, there was more of a down-to-earth vibe.
Wendy didn’t mind his panicked appearance at all because, in her eyes, Lord Keaton was losing his composure for her safety, how could she bla him?
"Lord Keaton? What brings you here?"
"Lord Keaton, we’re alright. The Alpha rcenaries have almost been wiped out."
The mbers of the Vanguard Corps noticed Kyle Keaton and quickly greeted him.
So even hurriedly reported the situation.
Indeed, among them, Kyle Keaton’s urgency was seen as worry for them.
In the corner, Wendy couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
Lord Keaton ca not for you tough ones.
Just watch, Lord Keaton’s concern for her will surely show all these singles a thing or two.
Under Wendy’s gaze, Lord Keaton urgently grabbed the hand of a Vanguard mber and asked, "Where is she?"
The Vanguard mber, whose hand was grabbed, seed puzzled: "Who?"
Of course, it’s Wendy!
At that mont, Wendy felt her heart jump to her throat.
See, she knew Lord Keaton ca for her!
Now Kyle Keaton’s actions and words confird her suspicions.
Though a girl being too forward might seem a bit unreserved, Wendy was reluctant to let Kyle Keaton search high and low for her.
So, she proactively walked toward Kyle Keaton...
But just as she did, Kyle Keaton also seed to notice her and hurried in her direction!
