Chapter 211

"Vonnie, let me ask you something."

Yvonne, the cheeky girl, figured it out in a heartbeat. Was she just too sharp, or was he too eager?

"Are you kidding? You think you're being subtle?" Yvonne shot back.

"I'm asking you, okay? No need to flip out on me." Sebastian furrowed his brow. "Just answer my question."

Yvonne replied, "Yep, you're as clear as day. One glance, and I could tell there was something off between you two,"
