Regret Novel 165

Chapter 165

Charlotte was trapped between his chest and the cold glass, utterly cornered. The towel clung to just one side of her body, leaving her skin exposed and prickling with cold. She shivered uncontrollably. “Isn’t one Tricia enough for you? Or do you need more? If you don’t mind how filthy it is, I certainly do!”

Evander’s face darkened, and he fell silent.
