Chapter 0021
“I have something else to take care of. I’ll take my leave,” said Miranda
Micah refused to let her leave just like that. “All these years, Hansel has treated you like his belonging and hid you in his house. I couldn’t even meet you.”
Miranda looked up as her smile faded. “What are you trying to say?”
Micah replied, “Back then, you turned both of us down once but eventually chose him over me. It’s only because he persisted for a longer time and was more clingy.
