Chapter 496

Once again, Susan had blindly chosen Horace, and her decision stung Ashlyn’s heart deeply.

Her grandma’s love for Horace was so deep that she could not distinguish between right or wrong. If Horace said he wanted to eat her alive, she would offer herself up to him gladly and without any hesitation.
