Chapter 292 The Origin

Most of Maggie’s injuries were superficial, with the most severe occurring when she fell from a height, but Nathael had shielded her well.

Ericko had been waiting nearby, accompanied by another man.

Joyce’s throat tightened, caught off guard by their unexpected encounter.

Quickly, she averted her gaze, concealing any additional emotions.

Jimmy chuckled. His eyes glinted with mischief, giving him a charming appearance, but there was a hint of malice beneath the surface.
