At that moment, a hand suddenly grasped Annie Anne's wrist.
Then, with a forceful twist of the fingers, Annie Anne was pulled entirely in another direction.
This action was too abrupt, catching both Campbell Prickly and Annie Anne off guard.
Originally, Campbell Prickly was holding a bracelet, and he didn't control his strength when Annie was pulled away. Though the bracelet was successfully removed, he clearly heard Annie Anne gasp in pain.
He couldn't help but furrow his brow, casting his gaze towards Annie Anne.
Annie Anne stumbled and nearly lost her balance, but in the next second, she was in an embrace.
The familiar scent of absinthe enveloped her, but her cheek was pressed against a cold button.
Feeling the grip on her waist tighten, Annie Anne slightly lifted her head, only to see Campbell Prickly's sharp jaw and tightly pursed lips.
