Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 135

The car halted at the entrance, and Monica’s parents were the first to step out.

Following them, Monica emerged.

Decked out in a goose–yellow dress paired with a matching headband, Monica exuded at youthful aura. The ensemble worked wonderfully to counterbalance her inherently delicate

In contrast, Susan seemed to be in high spirits recently, leading a comfortable life. Her skin radiated a–healthy glow, and there was a vivacious twinkle in her eyes.

Somehow, she seemed to have outshone Monica.

Monica’s parents seemed to be in a good mood.
