Chapter 220

Claire's frail and worn-out body felt utterly undeserving of someone as radiant as Sean. The flush that had just colored her cheeks faded swiftly, replaced by a profound sense of melancholy and desolation.

Sean lifted his gaze and looked down at Ethan from the window, his eyes turning as cold as ice, capable of freezing everything in their path, with a hint of challenge lurking beneath.
