I Only Wanted Luxury Shopping, and Accidentally Saved the Whole Family Chapter 09

Veronica’s expression shifted drastically. She grabbed my arm, pulled me behind her, and snapped, “Get back to your room right now!”

“There’s no place for you to talk here,” she added in a lowered voice, her palm cold and clammy.
