Chapter 632

"Damn it! They're like the beauty and the beast. What a waste of my time!"

Ronald had completely lost interest in Nancy. He had two principles when it came to women: they either had to have both beauty and a great figure, or if they were slightly lacking, they had to be untouched.

Nancy wasn't stunning enough to truly captivate him, but she had kept herself well- guarded. Such a pity.

Inside the taxi, Nancy's heart was still racing wildly.

Nancy nodded. "Yes. I looked into Ronald's preferences. It should be fine now. I'm sorry for not giving you a heads-up earlier."
