Chapter 40: A Sudden Change Of Heart
The morning sun rose over the Lancaster estate, casting long golden rays across their mansion. Early in the morning, the grand house was already awake with housekeepers moving quietly.
Chloe didn’t sleep.
Well, she did, but it felt so short.
Her thoughts were occupied by Gray the whole night.
