Chapter 993

Inside the villa, Halsey had just finished a hot shower. She brewed a fresh cup of coffee and brought it to the study. Raising her hand, she knocked lightly on the door.

Shaun’s voice came through almost immediately.

A smile played on Shaun’s lips. “Well, you personally made me coffee-how could I not notice? I’ve stopped focusing on work the moment you walked in.”
