Seated on the couch, Sam smiled faintly when he saw the awkward expression on Calvin's face. "You really don't have to worry about that. After all, Calvin was the one who lied and said that he wanted to eat it, so Miranda made the soup for him. As for her, she won't be coming." Hansel's face darke

Miranda nodded. "Alright. How about I trade the stuffed toys for you?"Austin's eyes widened in shock. "You want me?""Yes.""No way! Human trafficking is illegal!"Miranda retorted, "This isn't trafficking. It's a prize, so no money is involved.""It's still not allowed!""Why not?"Austin spoke cl

Just as Zach thought he had turned the tables, Winter pinched the softest part of his waist and twisted it a full 180 degrees. "Ouch!" he yelped in pain. Winter flashed him a sweet smile. "What do you think I'm doing?"Zach didn't reply. It was better to not mess with a fierce tigress like her!Wi
