Chapter 98

As she had only fancied Melissa‘s ability to give money, she instantly surrendered to Melissa.

“Haha, Veronica, you really are too kind.”

Melissa tilted her head and made a heart shape with her fingers at Veronica‘s direction.

at Veronica. “So, what is it?”

Although it was at the dead of night, the moon cast its bright light to the ground and illuminated everything in a thin veil, barely allowing them to make out each other‘s silhouette.

Suddenly, Veronica held onto her stomach. “Ahhh, my tummy. Ouch, it hurts…”
