Chapter 342 Angela's eyes widened slightly, a flicker of surprise crossing her face. She didn't understand why Trey had suddenly asked that, so she pressed her lips together and remained silent. Trey had been precocious from a young age. When they first met, he was deeply immersed in studying and networking, frequently mingling with the city's elite circles.
