The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1699

Erica, with teary eyes, looked at Larkin and complained, "It's way too hot. I could use a cold drink!"

Larkin gave her a soft smile and replied, "You can't have that, love."

Erica hadn't always taken good care of herself and her health was in a pretty bad shape. Larkin was helping her to get better.

She loved icy stuff and all sorts of snacks, which totally messed up her stomach. When it acted up, the pain was unbearable.

After they got hitched, the only things Larkin ever restrained her were cold food and late nights.

"Hmph!" Erica was already expecting a 'no' from Larkin.

She held onto Larkin's fingers, making a noise of annoyance, "Let's go home, the sun is killing me!"

As she turned around, her face lit up with happiness.

Meanwhile, the chatter about Larkin was still going strong.

"Does anyone know why Larkin, at 23, suddenly decided to abandon his identity as a monk? I'm dying of curiosity, spill the beans!"

"Maybe he broke some church rule and got kicked out."

"Stop spreading nonsense! I've seen you badmouth Mr. Carter everywhere. What's your beef with him?"

Looks like another internet war is brewing.
