She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 531:

Gerard, who had his ear pressed against it, stumbled forward and nearly fell flat on his face.

Just as he opened his mouth to speak, Gerard caught sight of the empty room. No one was inside. Before he could voice his confusion, he saw Kristian’s face darken, his expression colder than before.
