Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 123: If I Can’t Have You, Then I’ll Kill You

It was a lie. But if that lie would protect my children, I'd tell it without hesitation. I might be selfish, especially on days when Chiara and Thunder asked about their father, but I couldn't let them have him. I'd do everything to keep them safe.
