Chapter 107 [ 1,275 words ] Ryan was genuinely curious about the little girl. She was bright, well-behaved, and unusually independent.

Chapter 105 [ 1,282 words ] She hadn’t expected to see a message like that. A hotel? A hotel room? The phone in her hand was still vibrating. Her palm was beginning to go numb. It was the kind of persistence that only came from someone who had been indulged

Chapter 100 [ 1,425 words ] Rose didn’t bother checking whether Ryan had left. He probably had. After all, Samantha had dressed up so carefully. They were most likely spending a romantic evening together. Rose had no intention of going back outside. She was already sick and didn’t have the
Chapter 99 [ 1,476 words ] On the drive back to the hotel from the private dining restaurant, Jordan made countless WhatsApp video calls to Rose. Without exception, every single call went unanswered. Being stood up by a woman was a first for him. Every woman he had ever met
