Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 307

After her talk with Ben that night, Susan came to terms with things.

Penny continued to win Susan’s favor, displaying a level of humility that was almost excessive. Susan would attempt to have rational conversations with her, but if persuasion proved ineffective, she

She didn’t anticipate that Susan and Yana were nothing alike.

The strategies employed with Yana had unintended consequences for Susan, achieving the opposite result.
