"Divorced?" Madam Guller was stunned for a few seconds. Then she became overjoyed. "When?""A few days ago."That answer was good enough. Madam Guller no longer bothered about the photos.Cole paid little attention to the photos, but the matter became a trending topic the next day.[Cheating in marr

The poor thing's symptoms were straight out of a horror flick: muscles clenching like crazy, nerves on fire, bleeding inside, gasping for air, and foaming at the mouth. Some of them even had their hearts stop cold turkey.According to the timeline, the rat had been juiced up with three rounds of Sta
