Chapter 1305 The Lingering Echoes of Love’s Burden

George couldn't help bursting into laughter instinctively, but the laughter quickly faded and left him with a bittersweet feeling. It was he who exposed North to the gruesome side.

If he hadn't made last-minute arrangements for them to stay at the Double Dragon Court, Olivia wouldn't have become an assassin for them. He thought he could protect her, but he never anticipated that it would end with him having to buy her freedom.
