Chapter 2482

Alyssa narrowed her eyes, her gaze cold.

The man before her often disguised his vile and vicious nature beneath a fragile exterior. Justin was everything Jasper wasn’t—where Jasper was honest, strong, and serious, Justin exuded a chilling, sinister energy. He was like a snake in human form, cold and cunning.
