Chapter 2005

Even so, she was a strong independent woman in Jarold City. She sorted out her emotions in a brief moment. After scanning the room and fixing her eyes on Hendrix, she laughed and had a contemptuous look on her face, just as Aaron did.

Serene, on the other hand, was unfazed. She was still as lofty and unbothered as before.
