Chapter 140 Timeless Love
Sadie’s tone lightened suddenly, and she chuckled softly, her voice tinged with a hint of relief. “Never mind.”
Ayanne paused, perplexed. “Miss Hudson…”
Sadie looked around the room. “This will do,”
Confusion deepened on Ayanne’s face. “Miss Hudson, you… you’re not upset anymore?”
