Chapter 83 We’re Married

Chloe was stunned and immediately turned around.

However, she saw no trace of Joseph. Instead, she spotted Icarus. She patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief. “You must be seeing things. You scared me!”

“Is that so? While Jake’s looks are average, his uncle is a work of art. In fact, in all my years of existence, I’ve never seen a man as handsome as him.”

Emily rolled her eyes. “Once you see this guy, you won’t say that anymore.”
