Master of his heart

Chapter 262

Lillian was manhandled into the police station, and by the time she was seated on the icy metal. chair, every inch of her was shivering with cold, her teeth chattering uncontrollably. Yet, inside. a flame of resentment threatened to engulf her whole being.

Yet he remained silent, even went so far as to block her.
