Chapter 841 - Laying All the Cards On the Table (2) (2/2)

He merely wanted to kill one of her little snakes, and already Snow was nearly driven insane by it. He dared not imagine what she would be like if he killed An’an.

Bai Qingqing’s eyes heated up, and she blinked to force back the tears. “But how can I bear to sit by and wait while An’an is in this state?”

Just then, Parker ran back with the food and acutely sensed the change in atmosphere. One look at the way Curtis was staring at An’an, and he understood everything.

Bai Qingqing’s breathing halted. She widened her eyes, and only then did she dare to believe what she had just heard.

She immediately looked towards him with a beaming smile. “As quickly as possible!”
