Chapter 3545 I'm Already Married

Paxton's words were spoken with unmistakable sincerity. Still, Orla shook her

head slightly, her voice flat as she replied, "There's no need for me to lie to you. It's the truth, and as for this marriage contract, I think it's best to put the matter to rest. If you're seeking compensation, feel free to let me know."
