Katherine turned her car into a side road.
A familiar car parked at the gate of her villa, but she must have mistaken it for someone else's.
Unfortunately, her eyes were right at first glance when she drove closer to the vehicle.
Zack was outside her house! The memory of him kissing her yesterday popped into Katherine's head,
making her face blank.
As soon as her car reached the gate, she took out the remote that could automatically open her gate.
The gate then slid open.
Although she was aware that Zack was there, she remained seated in her car.
She had no intention of stopping the engine to face him.
Even the front windows of her car stayed closed.
Zack walked toward Katherine's car and blocked it with his body, standing in the middle of the gate.
If Katherine was persistent to drive inside her garage unimpededly, she could run over Zack.
But intentionally doing so was forbidden by the law.
Why would she act on something that would send her to jail just because she could not stand the sight
of Zack? Realizing that it was not worth it, she brushed the idea off her mind.
Katherine finally stopped the car.
She lowered the driver's seat window and looked at Zack who came over.
She raised an eyebrow and said, "Do you want me to run over you?"
"I want you to confirm something ‘’ Zack said, ignoring her complaint.
He lowered his head to meet her eyes.
His expression was as cold as usual as if he did not kiss her and got a slap in return yesterday.
He was always the shameless Zack Colburn.
Katherine pursed her lips.
"Confirm what?" she asked with a hint of impatience in her voice.
"Have we met before our marriage?"
Zack abruptly asked back.
The unexpected question stunned Katherine for a moment until it made her burst into laughter.
"I'm sorry, but you're probably mistaken.I haven't seen you before we met ‘’ she lied.
She knew what Zack was asking.
But why would she confess that she liked him even before he met her? It was an embarrassing secret.
Besides, it was useless to admit it now.
Zack frowned.
Dissatisfied with Katherine's response, he said, "I mean, are you sure we haven't met when you were
in high school or middle school? Or over a decade earlier, perhaps?"
Katherine rolled her eyes and repeated, "We haven't, Zack."
She was looking at him resolutely to make herself look convincing.
"Alright, then..."
Zack paused before he continued, "how come you said you loved me?"
He was exactly right.
It was rare for Katherine to be interrogated like this.
But being someone who always refused to accept that somebody defeated her, she retorted, "Are you
saying that you can't say you love someone unless you've met them for quite a long time already?"
"You've met me ten years ago, Katherine” Zack asserted, ignoring her argument again.
He stared at her with certainty in his voice and eyes.
For a moment, Katherine badly wanted to reply, "So, what if I have?"
On second thought, they were divorced now.
The last three years of suffering from the excruciating pain of loving him were enough.
She could not sabotage herself by letting him break her heart again.
She would never give him the right to hurt her again.
A gust of wind blew over at this moment, messing Katherine's hair.
She raised her hand and ran her fingers through her hair to tuck it behind her ears.
Her face revealed a pair of charming eyes that curved when she gazed at him and flashed a sly smile.
"Dream on, Zack" she scoffed and added, "We're over, have you forgotten?"
Shaking her head as she shifted her gaze, she stepped on the accelerator and drove her car to the
garage.
Glancing at the rearview mirror, she watched Zack still standing there.
He was staring at her car slowly driving away from him.
Katherine could not feel any worse today.
As soon as her car reached the garage, her face sank on the steering wheel.
Alice was right.
Zack was indeed a total jerk!
