The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 812

Cassidy's voice was steady, almost as if she were recounting someone else's story rather than her own harrowing experiences. "I spent most of my time at Havenwood. Then, out of the blue, she decided to bring me back home. And for some twisted reason, she even slashed my wrist."

No one doubted the truth behind Cassidy's words.

The scars on her body were proof enough of her suffering.
