Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law

Chapter 1358 Tenacious

Lúca landed a punch on the steering wheel and then slowly lifted his right foot, placing it on the dashboard. His ankle was visibly swollen and bruised, resembling a giant eggplant.

Abel and Emmeline were immediately stunned. It was evident that Luca had twisted his ankle during the fight last night, but he had kept it to himself.

Luca hung his head, almost on the verge of tears, and said, “I’m really sorry!”
