“Ouch…”

Victoria let out a soft cry, then collapsed onto the man and rubbed herself against him. “Mr. Horton, I’m sorry, I just sprained my ankle.”

He looked at the young woman with a smile. “Which family are you from?”

Victoria laughed with her head down. “I’m a foster daughter of the Olsen family.”
