Chapter 357

Brad had been wandering through the bustling mall with Jean, but from the moment they entered, she noticed his deep frown.

He seemed to despise the aimless wandering, but he was forced to suppress his irritation to keep her company.

His anger and gentleness coexisted in a strangely uncomfortable way.
