Rose with Thorns

Chapter 10

The WhatsApp text from Wilson read, “Don’t forget you still owe me a meal”

As Yvette read it, she couldn’t help picturing, Wikon flirtatiously and arrogantly smirking. She pursed her lips while typing a simple “okay” and sent it to him. At the same time, she changed his contact name to “Womanizer”
