Chapter 126

She looked a bit of a mess, but with a sly smile, she still managed to exude a captivating beauty.

Leandro went upstairs and walked to her bedroom door. With a gentle push, the door swung open.

Back then, she wasn’t as adept at controlling her expression as she was now. She clearly wanted to cry but forced herself to smile at him. But as soon as her expression changed, the tears fell.

He walked over to the bathtub, used his finger to wipe away her tears, and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
