She Took The House The Car And My Heart

Chapter 781:

Gerard had barely ever seen him like this and couldn’t help but tease, “Seriously though, for a guy, your skin’s practically flawless—how is that even fair?”

Melvin blinked slowly.

“I’m telling you, it’s not just the pretty girls who need to stay on guard — pretty guys like you aren’t safe either.” Gerard’s tone was all sincere, though the liquor slurred his words. “One time, Kristian and I were on a business trip and ran into a company male president who was into younger men.
