Chapter 143

I spent a good amount of time comforting Stella, hoping she wouldn’t fret over me and accidentally harm the baby in her belly

After hanging up, my dislike for Bonnie hit a new high.

I asked Halley to write a piece centered around the recording and send it to me for review.

Three days later, he sent me the draft.

“A fundraiser? She’s got Neil, why would she need a fundraiser?’ I sneered.
