The Woman From Hell

Chapter 562

At noon, Jerome came home with two bags of fruits in his hand. He had probably bought them on his way back.

He was not surprised to see Theo. Xander had probably informed him beforehand.

I had the impression that Jerome was always behaving like a child, but he looked a lot more mature now. The only thing that remained the same was his beautiful face.

Xander had changed a lot. He no longer fooled around and looked a lot more reliable as he had now learned how to take care of others.
