However, Sienna’s standards were too high because of her family background, her personality, and her capabilities. She was destined not to be attracted to more than 99% of the men in the world. No man in her past managed to rouse her desire一that was, until Zayn…In truth, she did not regard Zayn highly from the start and she assumed that he was nothing much except for his impressive martial arts skills and that he was very gifted. Nevertheless, she began to get to know Zayn better slowly through their interactions afterward. Moreover, her heart was won by Zayn’s personality and charm. Otherwise, why would she have made Zayn her fake boyfriend willingly? She was an arrogant woman after all. Yet, Zayn did not seem to be attracted to her at all. Moreover, he was a married man and she found this to be very depressing for herself. She thought about not seeing Zayn for the rest of her life at one point. She had never shown this side of herself to Zayn before. In fact, she had never
It was fortunate that the car brushed past her instead of crashing into her. Moreover, she saw Zayn getting out of the vehicle immediately before charging toward her menacingly. At that very moment, the bandage on her heart was ripped off.…She kissed Zayn. Her heart had shattered. She was a little astounded and shy, but she had no regrets. She was delighted. This was something she had been wanting to do for a long time. She felt it was worth it even if Zayn was revolted and stopped speaking to her.Just as she was still immersed in the feeling of the kiss, he suddenly pushed her away. “You, you, you, you…”Zhan was shaking with anger while trying to berate her. His eyes looked panicked and guilty, the look in them piercing her heart ever so slightly. “Where’s your sense of propriety?! You’re the heiress of a powerful family!” Zayn was scolding her, yet he was tongue-tied and at a loss for words. After rambling, he could not finish a proper sentence. For some reason,
Zayn glared at Sienna’s stubborn demeanor, thinking he would angrily storm off. He found the unruly princess to be truly troublesome. However, he knew that Sienna would do something even crazier if he were to leave at that point. Sienna might even make her way to Barrow Cove to see Faye. Zayn would be doomed if that happened.“I’m not trying to get myself killed, but I’m willing to sacrifice myself for my country…” Zayn then realized something was off, so he hastily corrected himself by saying, “What nonsense are you talking about? Who said that I’m going to die? I’m going to be the champion! Who told you that I’m going to get myself killed? You came all this way just so you could scold me? You must have lost your mind!”Zayn was infuriated. His words seemed to agitate her, and she thumped on his chest with her fists. “Damn you, Zayn! You’re still lying to me! You’re obviously going to get yourself killed. Do you think you’re being magnanimous by doing so? Let me tell you this,
Zayn became anxious upon getting a call from Faye, and guilt quickly overcame him. Moreover, he was looking around as though afraid his wife would be lurking somewhere nearby. If she had seen what just happened between Sienna and himself, Zayn would be doomed.On the other hand, Sienna felt even more disgruntled upon noticing Zayn’s reaction. She huffed and slyly asked, “What’s the matter? Are you too scared to pick up when your wife is calling?”Upon hearing that, Zayn felt the urge to scold Sienna once again. The little lunatic still had the nerve to say such a thing. He had never cheated on Faye, whereas Sienna was obviously trying to seduce him!In any case, he could not be bothered to make a fuss about her anymore. Given how shameless the girl was, it would only be a waste of time.He hastily cast a glance at her while he said in a deep voice, “My wife is calling. Don’t do anything foolish or I’ll lose my temper for real.”“Sheesh…” she responded dismissively. Her ears then p
He turned around and met Sienna’s widened eyes. She was staring straight at him, ears perked up, and it was obvious that she had been eavesdropping. Noticing his stare, she immediately turned her head to the side and pretended to be checking out the scenery. Grunting unpleasantly, Zayn walked over and said, “My wife is calling me to urge me to go home. I’m not going to keep you company anymore. You may go ahead with your own plans.”However, Sienna sniggered in contempt and said, “You’re trying to lie to me. Your wife is with her best friend, so she’s obviously not home.”She glared at Zayn, and it was apparent that she looked down on his poor acting skills. Zayn rolled his eyes and said, “I’m going home anyhow. You may go wherever you want.”Upon saying that, he turned around and left. Sienna caught up to him and walked at his side. Zayn immediately furrowed his brows and said in a displeased tone, “What are you doing?”Sienna stared at him and said, “Who’s Ms. Peach?”
It was a very awkward remark to make, and it broke the thin barrier between them. Even though they were both aware of their flirtatious relationship, they were still separated by an unspoken boundary. Zayn had just crossed the line, and his remark made Sienna blush in embarrassment!Sienna badly wanted to deny it, but she was at a loss for words after she opened her mouth. She felt her cheeks burning with embarrassment and shame like she had never felt before. “You, you, you b*st*rd!” Sienna stuttered for a long while before she finally finished her sentence. Her expression was ferocious, yet her heart was not in her words. Indeed, she only seemed all the more guilty and anxious. Zayn regretted it as well. Why did he have to cross the line like that, knowing it would make things more awkward?At a loss for words, he let out two forced coughs and then said, “It’s getting late. You find yourself a place to stay.”Zayn got away from her like he was running for his life.Sienna w
As it happened, at that moment, a car came at full speed from the left. Sienna was standing by the side of the road, so she did not notice it. It was about to crash into her, so Zayn did not dare to hesitate and immediately ran over. Wrapping his arm around Sienna’s slender waist, he spun 180 degrees and saved her one second before the car arrived. The car braked to a stop in front and rolled down its window. A man stuck out his head and yelled, “F*ck you! You didn’t check before you crossed the street and you’re standing by the side! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!”The man broke out in a torrent of abuse while Sienna’s face was ghastly pale. She appeared to be scared out of her wits. Zayn was already not in a good mood, so he immediately glared at the man ferociously and said coldly, “Go ahead and say another word!”Zayn’s burning blaze was terrifying beyond comparison. Even a Tier-4 master fighter would find Zayn’s look scary, let alone an ordinary man. The man was s
It was fine when Zayn did not say anything, but as soon as he spoke, Sienna started bawling even more. “I’m going to tell my grandpa that you bullied me, waaah…” Sienna sobbed and Zayn could feel a shiver down his spine. “Hey, didn’t I say that I was only joking with you earlier? Why are you taking it so seriously? Aren't you supposed to have a good sense of humor?” Zayn said helplessly. Sienna continued to sob and said, “No one has ever accused me of being shameless before. You’re the first to say that and you’ve hurt my pride…”“Sigh… Miss, will you please stop crying?” Sienna had thoroughly defeated Zayn this time. He was hastily trying to console her, but he actually had no skill for comforting a crying woman. “If you want me to stop crying, you have to promise me one thing,” said Sienna. Zayn hurriedly said, “Anything, as long as you’ll stop crying.”They were still on a major street and Barrow Cove was right ahead. Even though Faye was not coming home, perhaps he woul
