Chapter 256 The Stubborn Girl

Time flew by like a swift shuttle.

A massive fire had altered the lives of all those involved.

Lucas looked at him with complex emotions in his eyes. Obviously, the unexpected news had left everyone at a loss for words.

A blatant deception!

“Wait,” Lucas stopped him in time.
