Chapter: 83
Kasie gently yanked Kristina’s arm and asked in confusion, “Is she out of her mind? Carlos was just starting to put their past disputes behind him, and now she is trying to stir up trouble again? Why is she holding his arm so tightly?”
Gail stood there paralysed from the neck up, unable to comprehend what had just occurred. Burning rage hissed through her body when she noticed the intimacy between Carlos and Debbie. ‘That dirty bitch! Why is she such a thorn in my side?’ she cursed inwardly.
