Chapter 571

The heart of a woman is as mysterious as a needle at the bottom of the ocean. Monica thought that figuring out a man's heart was like trying to straighten a paperclip-bent and twisted, impossible to understand. She followed Jason to the police department's parking lot and said, "I've got something today, so I'm going to skip this one."
