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.

Jimmy lounged casually against a wall in the corridor, exuding an air of fatigue with his arms crossed over
