Chapter 1052

Jolie followed Selena into the Cooper family villa.

Neither Gavin nor Gernard was home. Gavin was at the office, and Gernard had already left for South Afreeca.

Wilfried had gone fishing with an old friend, leaving only Aveline, Lucas, their two kids, and the household staff in the villa.
