Chapter 35 Mutual Jealousy

Jordan was seething with anger, wanting to vent his frustration on the nearest wall. He acknowledged his past foolishness before his rebirth, mistaking a counterfeit for a treasure. He was fully committed to making amends and deserved a chance to turn over a new leaf.

At this moment, he found himself unable to argue with Leon, as his words held a ring of truth.

So it would be odd if he didn’t feel angry.

Upon hearing his words, Milly was taken aback. “Huh? You’re here for me?”
