Chapter 121

At the bathroom door, Madison froze in place.

Startled by her abrupt entrance, Leo, who had been tidying up the bathroom, stopped in his tracks.

Likewise, the flimsy ‘pajamas’ he had just picked up seemed to have gotten a shock. The moment Madison barged in, it had unfurled to reveal its highly embarrassing design.

Madison held her breath. She wanted to die on the spot.

Leo followed her gaze. When he saw what was in his hand, he raised his eyebrows.

Da mn the girl…

Without saying anything, Leo calmly placed the piece of pajamas (which was really little more than a piece of rag) into the dirty laundry basket.

However, as the saying goes, rage not at a smiling person! Madison did nothing that might betray the true extent of her rage. Instead, she continued putting on a polite facade.
