Chapter 140

Astrid slowly put some mutton into her bowl, cracking a smile as she said, “I’ve heard a lot about how well Ms. Helena can sing. I’ve heard you sing on variety shows before and it’s like the voice of an angel. I think people probably enjoy your singing more than watching magic tricks, don’t they?”
