After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 69 The Persistent Ex-Fiance

He had clearly seen a figure that looked a lot like Isabel pass by just a moment ago, but now it was gone.

Samuel scanned the surroundings again at night, but still saw nothing

"Could I have been mistaken?"

Samuel rubbed his eyes. It must be from staring at the screen while gaming too long

He closed the curtains and turned off the lights to go to sleep.

Isabel stepped out from behind a large tree and glanced toward Samuel's room.

"What a night owl, staying up so late," she thought before continuing on her way.

His eyes were lifeless as he mumbled. "Back then, I did receive some money to run someone over."
