Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 165

young master of the Joneson Family is really one of a kind, huh? He’s so certain that someone will be there to get revenge for him after he was wronged. That must feel great. Elspeth let out a chuckle. “Well, that’s up to the Joneson Family. However, I work on my own, and I’ll make sure to hunt those people down to get revenge,” she uttered.They chatted for a while more before Frank got tired.
