Chapter 84 Kneel Down (1/2)
All Jean's colleagues were extremely busy, but she was the only one with nothing to do.
She had no appetite for lunch at all. So she asked Maranda to bring her a sandwich. It was not until the afternoon that Sonny came back to the office.
When Jean saw Sonny, she buried her head among the document folders. She didn't dare to meet his gaze.
