"Sister Mony!" the middle-aged guard greeted the woman with respect.
Kieran could tell that she had not earned that kind of respect because of her age or status as a sister.
"Leave it to me, Reed," the elderly Sister replied with a kind, warm smile.
"Yes, Sister!" Reed took a bow and walked away.
As he passed by Kieran, his eyes were full of warning.
He did not go far though. He stopped just beside the school gate and stood guard there.
Kieran was sure that if he behaved inappropriately towards the Sister in any way, Reed would rush over in a flash and pull out his gun without a second thought.
His immense awareness said it all.
"Reed has no hostile intentions. He is a responsible man, it’s just that at times he can be a little… reckless," the Sister explained to Kieran with a kind smile.
She had the same expression she’d had when she’d talked to Reed, as if Kieran and Reed were the same person to her.
Her attitude made Kieran feel a little uneasy.
