The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 14

She felt like she was straight-up being embarrassed.

Mandy turned around in anger and hurriedly left the place that embarrassed her, while Jennie hurriedly followed.

Rosalie just felt as if she had watched a drama. She saw someone smashing the car as soon as she got out of the mall, and that car seemed to belong to Mandy.

How long had it been since he had this dream? He dreamt that the woman left him and his father mercilessly. He dreamt that his father knew about her leaving, but did not stop her.
