Chapter 0575

Just as my hand touched the handle, a strong grip landed on my shoulder.

The maids, startled by Nicholas storming over, quickly scattered out of sight.

I turned around, smacking his hand off my shoulder with all the strength I could muster. My palm burned with pain, and the fiery red mark on the back of his hand made it clear that he hadn't escaped unscathed either.
