She sat back and simply paid attention to what he was about to say and Adonis took a deep breath as he put his thoughts together.“Okay, I have to admit, I did hire a private investigator to handle this matter because last time, your grand-mother wanted to know the culprit behind the incident so bad she was willing to

One was a pleated skirt red dress while the other was a soft pink sleeveless A-line dress. Both looked stunning on her but she was being indecisive.“Adonis, which one do you think suits me well?” She eventually turned to Adonis to ask for his opinion.
