Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 42

An all–too–familiar profile picture and name popped up in the chat group.

He scrolled through the conversation, and his fingers hesitated when he read Stanton had introduced Cordelia as Louie’s good friend

The last message from Cordelia in the group was a greeting from five minutes ago, left hanging without a

Her gaze darkened.

Sure, the group was all mavericks, leaders in their fields, with a bit of pride, which was understandable.

[What’s going on? Who is this person?]
