Chapter 1223

Pearl rolled over and opened her eyes when her back was facing him, her lips pressing into a fine line.

Tanner hugged her from the back, and when he noticed that she was trembling, he turned her around. Her eyes were tightly shut, but a drop of tear flowed down from the corner of her eyes. He wiped it off with his finger and said, “I’m sorry. Let’s take a step back each, shall we?”
