Chapter 326

“Got everything?” The two stood waiting for their friends to emerge.

The waitress brought over some candies, and Leanne grabbed a couple, handing one to Jeremy.

As Jeremy took it, he could feel a chilling gaze on him. Without looking in that direction, he blurted out, “Do you remember when Curtis got into a fight with Johnny back in high school?”
