"What the hell do you mean you can't identify him?!" Liam bellowed as he glared at the two hackers sitting in front of him. After Jonas had told him about what Gerald and the rest had come to do, Liam had asked if he could see the video, but Jonas had told him that he'd already sent the video to Ge

“Gerald Butler, how many times must I tell you that it would be rude to just leave our own reception before it's over?”*“Ugh, but I'm dying to make love to you,”* Gerald groaned again. “I can't wait for our wedding night. The things I plan to do to you.”His eyes brightened with lust. “Do you want

They hugged, and as her mother continued to cry, Desiree couldn't help her own tears.“Okay, let me call Hugo in now,” Desiree said after wiping her tears when they pulled back from the hug.Her mother smiled nervously as Desiree opened the door and ushered a now fully dressed Hugo into the room.“D
