Reborn to Marry My Best Friend's Uncle novel Chapter 197

Suzanna's breathing hitched.

Annie lowered her eyes. "Frost Group just announced that Sean is taking over as CEO. And the heir, Easton, just happens to have an 'accident' right now.

Suzanna scratched at her head and answered vaguely, "It was that time... We got drunk, and I kind of ended up with William.
