"Why?" A coldness flickered through Waylon Lewis's eyes.
Hope Williams pursed her lips, aware that Waylon was angry. With outsiders present just a moment ago, he had finished reprimanding them, and now it was her turn.

Waylon's gaze fixed on her, and seeing her like this, his heart felt both pained and angry.
"Waylon, can you not be angry, please?" Hope's voice was soft.
Waylon didn't speak, and his hands didn't stop moving.
