The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2886

"Who do you think you're fooling with your fake concern? Is that how you've managed to trick Sherman into marrying you? Well, let me warn you: he might not see through it, but I certainly do. So stop pretending in front of me. You're just jealous of me, aren't you? I've known him for so long, but what about you? Just a few months, and you think you know him?
