You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 437 Take It Slow

“No. I thought someone was playing with firecrackers, and I yelled at them. At first, I thought it’s just some sickos pulling stupid sh*t in the middle of the night, but I realized something was off. Did you saw the policemen just now? Even the Armed Police came.”
