Chapter 797

• Carter’s suspicion deepened—there was no doubt in her mind now that Pete and Hue Pete were in the middle of a serious argument.

She knew the risks that came with marrying into the Stone family, yet she still chose to be with you. That alone should be enough for you to cherish her and make sure you don’t upset her.”
