Chapter 1019 Admiration
“She…” Jack lowered his eyes, unsure how to broach the subject with Mandy.
Recently, Mandy had been mentioning Charlotte more frequently. Even if she
didn’t bring her up, Jack could tell that Mandy’s admiration for Charlotte grew.
And now, with this incident…

How could one not feel scared?
In the past, Mandy had faced life-threatening situations without fear, because

But she was shot this time, the only thing that flashed in her mind was Jack’s
surprised smile when he proposed. They were on the brink of a promising
future. How could everything end now?
“Don’t worry, whether it’s Mr. Smith or me, we will do everything to rescue
