30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband

Chapter 270

At six o’clock, Cole returned home to find Jason lounging comfortably in the living room with little Isaac nestled in his arms. “Hey, look who’s here.” Cole said with a jovial grin.

Help me out and pick someone you think would be a good match for her, and I’ll arrange for them to meet.” Autumn’s words nearly caused Jason to spray soup across the table, while Cole beside him choked on his food.
