Chapter 54

The last time Madam Jewel was here, things quickly escalated, and Peach didn’t want to experience it again, and somewhat, she was thankful that Elijah wasn’t here since she knew the hostility madam Jewel had toward him.

The thought of being alone with these two made her alert, and she didn’t want to face them on her own, knowing their temperaments.
