A CEO's Revenge Marriage Accidentally in Love

Chapter 65 – Linda

Linda

This date is a disaster, and I regret putting so much effort into my outfit before leaving my house.

Still, I plaster on a smile. “I see…”

“Are you a brave girl?”

“Umm…” I can’t help but breathe a laugh and look up from my menu this time. ”

Davin wags his eyebrows at me. He isn’t the best-looking guy, but what can you expect at thirty? Everyone good is taken.
