Chapter 156

“Al, let’s get some breath?”

The moment Russel showed up, Barbara quickly stood up, grabbed Alicia, and left. Both of them, like Stella, believed that Russel had a thing for me and even encouraged me behind my back to accept him. They thought it would not only piss off Neil, but also would get me a good man.
