Anna looked up at the man who was standing in front of her with confused eyes. He was probably trying to analyze the condition or problem hers. A slight hope comes back in her heart when she comes to see the face of the man.

Because she already had met him.

"Mr. Walker?"

she murmured. The man comes towards herself and kneeled down to her level with doubtful eyes.

"What are you doing here?"

Noel inquired with concern. No doubt, he was so astonished to see Anna here. Also, when she now the wife of one of the biggest mob bosses in this country. And witnessing her like this made him bewildered.

"I..I got lost," Anna murmured looking down and Noel looked at her with an unbelievable expression. He was finding it hard to believe.

"You got lost here? And, where is Mr. Miller?" He tried to inquire and Anna frowned.

"I came here with Liam. And I got lost," She sniffed on her tears.

"And where is Liam?" Noel asked with his eyes wandering the surrounding probably to search for Liam.

"H..He d..didn't come back," Anna said nervously as opening the truth in front of someone whom she doesn't even know correctly made her a little uncomfortable but can't standing up with the situation, she doesn't find any other option but to tell him the truth.

Noel gave her a weird confused look but he didn't pull his thoughts further because it was already brute late for her to be out of her house while the weather was so cold. He can see Anna was literally shivering because of the cold.

"If you want then I can drop you off, Mrs. Miller," Noel suggested humbly. No doubt, he has the biggest enmity with Ivan. The enmity between the Dragon and Lucifer is highlighted among the whole territory but he can't be a jerk when he can clearly see that Anna was in need of help.

Anna looked at him bewildered. Her doe-like sleepy and teary eyes were wide and showing bewilderment. She nibbled her lower lip between her teeth thinking about his offer as she was still not sure upon this but the fact that she doesn't have any other option left made her shrug off.

"I..I d---"

"Listen, lady, please don't think of me as an antagonist," He said sarcastically.

"You can trust me. And it's already so late and it's not safe for you to stay out that late, On top of that, You're lost. Means Mr. Miller doesn't have a single idea about you. So it will be better if you come with me. After all, As a responsible guy, I can't see a lady wandering for help at late nights,"
