Chapter 96

If Zane refused to believe me and insisted on suspecting something had happened between me and Isaac, there was nothing I could do. When I remained silent, he suddenly leaned closer. His towering height blocked the light behind him, making him appear even more menacing and intimidating. I instinctively took a step back. He leaned in slightly and said in a chilling tone, "You'll be humiliated, of course, but your first task is to apologize to my grandmother." I stared at him in shock. Apologize? Why would I need to apologize to his grandmother? I hadn't wronged her in any way. Noticing my confusion, Zane smiled mockingly. Sneering, he said, "As I said, your memory isn't the best. It's only been two years, and you've already forgotten how you insulted my grandmother back then?" Had I insulted his grandmother two years ago? I racked my memory and was taken aback. Could it be that incident? At that time, he had rushed back home, dragging me with him, insisting I go to the Hodgesons.
