Mission To Remarry

Chapter 551

Roxanne was stunned as she instinctively recalled the sudden kiss on the stage at the mention of Sleeping Beauty.

“Ms. Jarvis?” Jerking out of her reverie, Roxanne forced a smile at Estella before telling her the tale of Sleeping Beauty.

Aside from that, Estella‘s mention of Sleeping Beauty kept reminding her of the kiss during the play, and she couldn‘t seem to shake it off her mind.
