Seven Days Seven Nights

Chapter 167 Consumed By Jealousy

This was a text that Nancy didn’t dare to reply to, and she didn’t dare to ask him for the reason either, afraid that she would receive the answer that had been repeated so many times before.

Moreover, men kissed for various reasons-pity, impulse, and desire. She no longer dared to hope for anything or harbor any unrealistic dreams.
