Obsessive CEO’s Sinful Wife By Lil’ Bamboo Chapter 273

No. No!

Give her back her mother! Give her back her little brother!

She desperately tried to shout, but no sound escaped her throat.

Just then, the sound of a bell rang, pulling her out of the nightmare.

Serenity slowly opened her eyes, only to hear an allaring voice ask her, “Are you awake?”

Het ryes, still disoriented by slumber, were greeted with a strikingly handsome face with shimmering eyes that shone with indescribable tenderness.

“Yeah..she answered blankly, still half–asleep. It was as if the world of her dreams and reality intermingled with each other, overwhelming her mind.

“Answer the phone, then,” he said, then held up the phone to her ear.

Serenity listened vacantly to the phone, then suddenly heard a familiar voice from the other end of the line asking her, Serenity? Is that you? Are you awake?”
