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.

Clearly, Monica hadn’t just thrown something on either!

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

Moreover, Monica had had a rather rough year, and despite the makeup artist’s best efforts, a hint of fatigue was still visible on her face.

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.
