Chapter 279

They drove to the villa district in the city center. The moment they stepped into Ashton’s villa, just like at Moonspring Estate, all signals throughout the building disappeared.

No one knew how many secrets the group had uncovered from Brody after spending the entire day at the villa.

Ian and Brandon remained at the villa.

As night fell, the outside world was quiet and peaceful, while the villa was warm and harmonious.
