My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 1326

Chapter 1326

“Okay.”

Everett started to put himself in “work mode“.

On the other side, Ninian braced herself to be

interrogated by her parents when she returned to the Winters family’s mansion.

To be precise, it was her father, Duke, who interrogated her by himself.

He was sitting on the couch. Over the years, even though he did not look his age, he became more grounded and

Ninian was speechless.
