Chapter 11

My worst fear still happened. Zane was in this very bar, and he had noticed me for a long time. As for the lies I told him moments ago, they felt like a sharp slap on my cheek. Every muscle in my body tensed as I stood still. Zane's merciless kiss lasted for what felt like ages before he released me. His slender finger traced my swollen lips after that. His gaze lowered onto me as he smirked, but his tone was cold. "Have you somehow sleepwalked to the bar?" He was at the bar and even phoned me to question my location, causing me to spew lie upon lie. The faintest hint of anger sparked in my chest. I scoffed, saying, "You saw me! So, why did you deliberately call and test me?" Zane's gaze darkened while he shot me a half-smile. "I thought you'd tell me the truth. I even gave you a chance, but you insisted on lying to the end." His fingers lingered around my neck as if his powerful grip would break my neck in the next second. My chest tightened once more. Zane smirked at me.
