He was quite satisfied with how lost and intoxicated she looked.Finally, he crawled back up lazily, glancing at the door to the hospital room with elegance.His voice was a slow drawl as he asked, “What are you doing here?”Elior was this cl

The money I earn is clean!“I earned every cent with my own sweat and blood, unlike Jane who sold her dignity for hers. I think I’m living a good and honest life, so why should I take your insults, Alora?”Alora could not help but laugh. “I’ll tell this to you straight,
