Chapter 72

“No! Mom, Dad, help me. Harley… Winslet asked for help in a panie, thinking of escaping.

Yer, soon enough, two bodyguards seized her by the arms.

She thought the gift list was hers.

Nothing could describe the devastation within her.

Jealousy swelled in her chest on that note.

“Why’s Alina blessed with such luck? Why am I not granted the same?” she mused.
