Katherine had not expected that Cherry, who she was patiently waiting for, would switch into Zack in
less than ten seconds after entering the villa.
Upon seeing Zack, the smile on Katherine's face instantly faded.
She could see Zack holding a bouquet of flowers outside the half-opened window.
After Zack stared intensely at Katherine's eyes for a while, he sincerely said, "I apologize for what
happened the last time."
Katherine raised an eyebrow and dismissively said, "No problem."
After a brief pause, she continued, "Then, I'll be heading out"
Before Katherine could close the car's window, Zack raised his hand to stop her and said hurriedly,
"Wait."
Zack quickly handed over the bouquet of flowers and said, "Cherry wants me to give this to you."
Katherine definitely would not take the flower if it was from Zack, but since it was given by Cherry, she
didn't see any reason not to accept it.
Moreover, she realized that it was quite lovely the more she looked at it.
So, Katherine fully opened the car's window and reached out to accept the flower from Zack.
She lightly said, "Thank you."
Placing the flowers in the back seat, she asked in a polite tone, "Mr.Colburn, can you step aside?"
If he did not move, it was inevitable that her car would collide with him, whether she drove forward or
backward.
Although he heard her request, Zack stayed motionless before telling Katherine, "I didn't drive over
here with my car.Could you give me a ride?"
"I can't” Katherine frankly replied.
After that, Katherine immediately rolled up the window and drove past him without waiting for his reply.
Zack quickly took a step back to avoid the car and stood there, watching the red Ferrari fade from his
sight.
His eyes fluttered slightly, and after a while, he turned back.
Just as Zack turned around, he saw Charles standing quietly behind him, scrutinizing him.
Then, Charles snickered and asked him, "So, shall I get the driver to send you back?"
Zack glared at Charles and snapped, "Get lost!"
"I was only concerned!"
Charles chuckled and couldn't help but tease him.
After smirking at Zack, he continued, "didn't you say just now that you didn't bring your car?"
Zack didn't bother to listen to him.
He directly entered the garage and drove his car out.
Looking at Zack, who was about to leave, Charles quickly said, "Wait a minute! I have to tell you
something!"
Zack hit the brakes and lowered the window to look at Charles.
He ordered impatiently, "Speak"
Now that he was in a foul mood, he didn't want to listen to anyone.
If not for Charles wishing to discuss some serious matters, Zack wouldn't have stopped the car.
Charles seriously asked, "You want to pursue Katherine?"
Zack frowned and asked back, "Why? You got any objections?"
Charles looked at his serious expression and answered in a solemn voice, "Of course not.But Cherry
likes Katherine, and I think Katherine is not that bad either..."
Charles' implication was self-evident.
When Zack heard Charles' words, Zack's face gradually sank.
He roared in a threatening voice, "You dare?!"
Then, without hearing any of Charles' replies, Zack stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove out of
the Jacobs Residence.
"I'll dare do it, so what?"
Charles chuckled as he gazed at the receding end of the car.
Katherine arrived at the villa at precisely nine o'clock.
Today, she was in such a good mood that she decided to make the plastic flowers she received from
Cherry as decorations in her house.
Afterward, Katherine relaxed by soaking in a bath infused with lavender essential oil.
As a result, she slept very soundly and peacefully for the rest of the night.
Zack, on the other hand, had a difficult time sleeping.
Whether Charles was telling the truth or not about chasing Katherine, just thinking about these two
eyesores, Anthony and Tyler, made him unable to sleep peacefully.
Furthermore, Zack hadn't even figured out how to break the stalemate between him and Katherine.
Also, she wasn't even willing to speak to him at this point.
Every time Katherine saw him, only indifference and alienation could be seen in her eyes.
Zack frustratingly sighed as he snuffed his cigarette on the ashtray and gazed out the window into the
dark night.
He suddenly recalled how Katherine approached him that day when she asked him to sign the divorce
agreement.
At that time, he sarcastically asked Katherine what tricks she was playing, not taking her seriously.
Now, if Zack was given a choice, he would much rather prefer if Katherine would have tricks up her
sleeves instead of being so decisive and cutting off their past relationship.
As soon as the end of the year arrived, Katherine would have her annual leave from Future
Technology.
Consequently, Katherine's plane ticket to C City had already been booked by Celine.
The plane set off at six o'clock in the evening and landed at half-past eight o'clock in C City.
Although Katherine expected that the winter in C City was significantly colder than Y City's, she was
still not used to the heavy snowfall she experienced after she had arrived there.
Katherine only saw Luke as soon as she exited the airport.
It was given since Alice was expected to return the next night, while Luke returned the day before.
She walked towards Luke, dragging her suitcase.
As Katherine reached him, a weirdly familiar female voice caught their attention, exclaiming abruptly,
"Katherine! Luke! Is it you two?"
