Chapitre 108: CHAPTER 108: THE TELLTALE SIGNS OF A LIAR

In the shabby apartment infested with crawling rats and buzzing mosquitoes, Scarlette had temporarily rented it from an old, bald man with a well-rounded, big fat tummy for a hundred bucks.

Inserting the rusty key into the keyhole, she pushed the door open, and a cloud of dust erupted, hitting her pale face and making her grimace in disgust.

Her once meticulously made-up face now appeared pale, resembling a struggling woman barely scraping by.
