The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 1704
Joey felt a little uneasy after hearing a stranger bring up the fact he was adopted so abruptly. He blinked and asked, "How do you know that?"
The balloon seller put on an honest look and said, "I've been selling balloons nearby recently, and I overheard the neighbors talking about it.
