"Are you happy now?"

The expressionless Skylar parted his lips, ready to answer Warren, but Olivia suddenly squeezed over.

She acted as if they were alone and emphasized, "Skylar, what happened to your shirt? It's burned over here! And the back of your hand—it's scorched red!"

She grabbed his arm, examining his condition and looking sympathetic.

"Why do I feel like she's talking about me…" Warren thought.

Warren parted his lips, ready to respond, but was quickly interrupted by her. "I saw how concerned and protective you were toward someone that's not even your own child. You're surely a caring and big-hearted person, aren't you?
