Bride Behind the Mask novel Chapter 641

Yuna watched as Chuck punched in the familiar three digits on the phone, his finger hovering over the call button.

No!

She couldn't let herself be exposed like this! Her legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the floor, letting out a dramatic groan of pain.

"Ouch! It hurts! Oh, the pain, the pain, the pain—"
