Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 90

Old Mr. Reed simply said, "You're wasting your time here. I'm not going to Westbridge."

With that, he left the kitchen, sat down in front of the cabin, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Isabel walked over as well.

Adrian, who had made a bizarre appearance on the mountain earlier, now reappeared holding a food container.

Selena immediately ran up to him, sighing sadly.

She had just gotten it from the kitchen and was eating it while enjoying the distant view.

She was oblivious to what Selena and Adrian had been discussing.
