Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 153:

Elyse noticed a marked change in Mabel’s demeanor. It seemed she’d truly learned a lesson from Theo’s actions. Coldly staring at Theo, Elyse questioned, “Mr. Ward, why are you tormenting my sister like this? She’s done nothing to you. Why bully her?”
