Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 1328

For the next few years, Emerald would likely be too consumed with internal struggles to trouble Damon and Nyla.

"She's not just any woman-she's my girlfriend. The woman I love," Brandon replied.

Jayden pressed, "And what about our years of friendship? What does that mean to you?"
