Chapter 1219

Chase picked up the phone instantly. “What’s up? You’re calling back already; did you miss me that much?”

Belinda sounded a little peeved. “Chase, we don’t have any beef, do we? Why are you messing with my boyfriend?”

Belinda furrowed her brows. “I slapped and insulted you because you were harassing me. If you want revenge, take it out on me. Don’t mess with my boyfriend; he has no clue what’s going on.”

Chase chuckled. “How I seek my revenge really depends on my mood. Anyway, I’ll let you lovebirds be. Catch you later.”
