Crying Quote by Mila Rossi
““You’re not fine, bella. You’ve been crying,” he said and tipped up her chin. “I have not,” she said indignantly but didn’t find the strength to pull out of his grasp. “You’re a terrible liar,” he said with a smile. The back of his fingers ran along her cheek and she allowed the caress.””
