Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Late at night, all of them returned to Peace and Karl’s house after their adventure. Except for Matthew, the kids were all tired and quickly went to bed. At the same time, the adults gathered to talk about their experiences over the past few days

Isabella told them about what she saw while following Maria earlier In brief, “Anyways, Maria met a strange Azul Group employee at the construction site and later collaborated with him to frame Matthew

“But you wouldn’t have believed Maria if I hadn’t arranged for her to be your secretary.”

“It is not your fault, Mom. I should have known she was that type of person. And I should’ve dealt with her a long time ago,” Shaking his head, Matthew said helplessly
