A large step was taken at a time, and in the blink of an eye, Canillas was now standing in front of Joanna, saying, "You are here?"
Joanna nodded her head with a smile. "Ready to go?" she asked, to which Canillas responded with a yes as he stared into her beautiful sparkling eyes.
Moving to stand by her side, Canillas wrapped his arm around Joanna's waist, which took Joanna by surprise.
So far, before many eyes, the intimate gesture that they let them see was holding hands, except for one moment when he was angry at their first encounter with Clara de Lorn, which she would exclude from an affection.
With all her best efforts, Joanna tried to remain composed, as she wanted to show others that such an intimate gesture was not a novel thing that happened between her and her husband. However, it was not easy for her to be calm when Canillas' thumb did not stay still like his other fingers. It kept moving to brush her waist, adding fuel to her fluttering, racing heart.
