Chapter 471

The woman with glasses had an air of maturity and stability about her, making her seem older than me, yet her skin was too smooth and delicate to accurately guess her age.

He disdainfully pushed past Bran, stepping closer to where Anthony and Henry stood. "So, you're Foebe's dad, and you're here claiming your daughter has always been emotionally unstable?"
