A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 24

“Roselynn, what are you doing? It hurts!”

When Roselynn stepped out after changing, she was

shocked to discover that her brother had a band–aid

on his body and a bandage on his back. She couldn’t

“Fell down? This is a lie. You obviously got hurt. Did

someone hit you or throw something at you?”

agitated as she demanded, “Manny, be honest with
