The Queen Returns—And She’s Unforgiving Chapter 14

Chapter 14

“Do you not know about it?” Maria was infuriated as she sensed that something was wrong.

She continued, “I booked tickets for you two for a two–day trip at Reis Mountain. Lucas told me he had already given you the tickets when I asked him about it yesterday.”
