Chapter 168

Bethany’s carefully made-up face froze. Her heart trembled in fear.

“Also, are we that close? Don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you to hug me like this?” Ryan’s eyes were cold as he forcefully pulled out his arm.

“You’re his sister, not mine. Watch your behavior next time.”

Ryan replied coldly, turned around, and left.

Anna had given him this suit. He could not bear to wash it, let alone allow others to get it dirty.

Bethany clenched her fists reluctantly. Her nails dug into her palms until they were almost bleeding.

Bethany quickly flashed a bright smile. Her heart was beating with excitement.
