A Cue For Love

Chapter 1121 The Faster The Better

Jerome could never forget the image of Natalie’s protective figure standing in front of him when they were children. Back then, he still wasn’t the son of a Loang general but a child in the countryside. Often, he was bullied by children older than him.

While his mother was heartbroken over the treatment he received from other kids, she couldn’t keep her eye on him all the time. Hence, after Natalie learned about his situation, she always kept him by her side. When those children tried to bully him, she would retaliate like a tiny, angry leopard.
