Chapter 148 Who’s The Bully?
Clarissa thought, ‘Madelynn’s probably enticing me to watch the contents inside the USB.’
At this point, Clarissa could guess what was in the USB. It was probably a sex scene starring Madelynn and Damien. Obviously, Madelynn was trying to start an argument between the two of them.
