Revenge After Prison Never Forgiven (Abigail) novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257

Abigail had no idea what was going through his mind. She just said lightly, “Honestly, things between us have always felt pretty ordinary”

She felt that her relationship with Sebastian was more of the slow burningkind.

“Not exactly.” James said meaningfully. What Abigail didn’t know was that Sebastian’s long standing crush on her had been anything but easy

Sebastian knew that after she returned to the with the Gibson family, she had fallen in love with Ralph.

“All the drama you never saw? That was just him, going through it all on his own” Warren teased.

“Shut up,” Sebastian snapped, his ears burning red from their teasing.
