Chapter 2281

“Can you believe that guy? He actually said, ‘drop by anytime!”

Margot rubbed her arms against the goosebumps while Thalia just smirked with a knowing glance.

Ivy watched them beat a hasty retreat, a laugh escaping her lips. When her eyes met Balfour’s, she blurted, “I need to talk to you about something…”

Balfour stood there for a moment, both of them well aware of the elephant in the room. And still, he silently made his way over to Ivy.
