Chapter 1348 Pledge Your Loyalty

If you don't wish to see my face, I will do it out of your sight. But I won't leave until I fulfil my contractual obligation.”
• The woman was all calm and collected, as though she had already anticipated that her secret would be exposed any time. That, or this was all within Ashton's planning and expectation.
