Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

— It wasn’t because Mr. Labbe gave Carrie a lot of money, but because he was capable of killing people.

She was scared.

After spending time in jail, Carrie had developed a deep fear of death and now valued her life and good fortune.

Once there, she grabbed a few roses without paying and started to leave.

“She didn't pay.

Camryn wasn't going to let Carrie get away with it.

Her two bodyguards stepped in to block Carrie.
