Chapter 206

Esme was ready to head into the house when she saw Travis showing up with Ezekiel. She made her way to them.

She wasn't fond of Travis. In fact, she even resented him. Travis had publicly announced his intention to marry her and forbade any man from getting too close to her. For that reason, she did not have a male friend in her life.

When she was in school, her male classmates dared not speak to her. Even her male teachers tiptoed around her. Therefore, she hated Travis to the core.

Please take a look at him."
