Chapter 1288
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
He got a professional A TV and bought a lot of supplies to put in the trunk before leaving.
They were all Leiaâs favorite fruits and snacks.
Leia was slightly moved when she saw him do all this for her. She leaned against the car and handed him a tissue paper as she said teasingly, âWeâve broken up, so you donât have to be so considerate. If not, Iâll think that you still canât forget about me.â
She regretted her comment immediately and added, âDonât get me wrong, Iâm just joking.

Only beasts canât control their feelings and are disloyal⦠Oh, but penguins and whales are different.
