The temperature in the room raised in a trice. ''You seems to be a lot closer to that nasty piece of shit than I imagined?'' Devin's threatening voice and his bloodshot eyes raged like a beast. He has a reason to hate Birds of Paradise flowers now.
''Close or not close, don't rate him. He saved my life.'' Leena argued. She will not let anyone degrade her savior, not even Devin. ''You need to understand one thing. Without him, I wouldn't have been alive today.'
An ablaze of anger burned in his eyes when Leena started backing Enger in front of him. Saved her life! That one thing had bound Devin's mouth to utter a word against that man. He got up from the bed and wordlessly stormed out of the room.
''Devin, wait!'' Leena screamed, but neither he halted nor turned back at her. ''The temper of his!'' Leena knocked on the headboard furiously, only to end up hurting her hand.
