Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 414

Chapter 414 Red Mark

She noticed one hickey on her chest that morning when she changed, but she didn’t realize she had one on the neck as well. At the side, Joaquin took a glance and stared downward.

“Are you having an allergic reaction, Mommy?” Juniper was concerned instead. “Should you get that looked at in a hospital?”

“No,” Juniper’s parents said at the same time.

“Oh, this is your fault, Daddy. You should pay more attention to Mommy. It’s times like this you should take her to the hospital. She should get an injection or some meds if it is an allergic reaction,” Juniper lectured her father precociously, though it was born of concern.
