Chapter 199



Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

No way Connor had another girlfriend. Even though it wasn't public knowledge, everyone knew Connor had eyes only for Diana for years. No other woman stood a chance. So, no one dared to entertain any inappropriate thoughts.

So, no one wanted the beautiful woman standing before them to be Connor's girlfriend. That way, everyone felt balanced.
