Chapter 9

Two days have passed since Ronan messed with my mind and heart again. And it's been two nights that I couldn't sleep and eat properly because of that jerk.

He's really a trouble in my life and I wasted a lot of tears and energy because of his jokes.

“Damn you, Ronan!” I yelled at my reflection in the mirror with a wet face.

I hate to say it but he's all I think for the past two days and night. He caused me another trouble at the very last minute.

“Tell him I'm only free this morning.”

I need to finish my task here swiftly. I need to get the deal before I encounter Ronan again.
