Chapter 809 Fascinated By You

An intelligent, decisive, and faithful man held immense charm, and when coupled with good looks, his appeal was hard to resist, regardless of the circumstances. Halo burst into a grin and responded, "I'm well aware. And I know that you often play the knight in shining armor in your quest for retribution.
