Chapter 190 Winning Or Losing Is A Mindset

Annabelle came from the direction of the kitchen, and she was holding a fruit platter.

The hallway leading to the kitchen was by no means spacious, and Annabelle and Yuliana were right in the middle. One of them had to step aside to avoid bumping into the other.
