Chapter 3498 Am I A Pawn

Phoenix sighed. “It’s scary what a broken heart can do to a person…”

Before long, Zoey decided to approach Floyd directly.

“Floyd, what’s wrong with you? Did something happen?”

Upon hearing that, Floyd reeled in shock.

She’ll likely share her concerns with him, and that’d be disastrous! I may not mind it at all, but it’d undoubtedly affect Gloria.
