His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 363

At that moment, Marianne entered the ward, carrying a thermos with her.

Marianne froze when she saw the charm in Lester's palm.

She recognized that charm. She also knew how much it took for someone to succeed in obtaining that charm from Lacroix Summit.

Marianne's lashes fluttered when she thought of that, her heart twisting in pain.

She looked somewhat astonished when she called out to Lester, asking, "Lester, did you get this charm yourself?"

Her eyes remained fixated on the charm. It was as if her mind was a thousand miles away as she reminisced about the past.

Marianne was shocked. Still, she quickly snapped out of it and began to scrutinize Lester closely.
