Chapter 732

“Brilliant idea! I never considered that before!” Vera cried out, her hands clapping together in elation at Kailee’s inspired plan.

Vera’s spirits soared, and her admiration for Kailee swelled.

Vera gestured to the photos, a wistful sigh escaping her lips as her eyes brimmed with nostalgia.
