The Unwilling CEO’s Love Game

Chapter 20

The old Jocelyn wasn’t like this.

She knew Melvin wasn’t into her wearing those flashy clothes and he definitely wasn’t a fan of her dolling up and hitting the bars looking like a total knockout. She knew she would’ve gotten on his bad side over something like this
