Love Addiction: Doting On My Love by Wendy

Chapter 0144

“Is something wrong?”

Violet was taken aback. Her heart leaped up her throat, and her knees felt weak.

George simply opened the door and invited. “Please, Ms. Violet, take a look Inside.”

The staff had been removed from the scene, and their knowledge of the situation inside was

a sense of solitude.

“I want to eat something you’ve made,” he said pitifully, a far cry from his usual arrogance and something more akin to a child being abandoned.

“I’ll cook for you,” she conceded, reminded of the enormous debt she owed him.
