Chapter 536

Rosalie was stumped for some time before murmuring, “I don’t-”

However, she had only just started speaking when Calvin’s finger pressed against her lips.

“All right, let’s go. It’s not convenient for you to hail a taxi here while dressed like this anyway,” he urged.

The security guards exchanged helpless glances, evidently clueless.
