"What should I do?" Patricia murmured.
Looking at the night sky, a somber mood descended on her.
On the one hand, she hated Zac because he had threatened her and made her lose her baby.
On the other hand, what happened today put her at a loss.
An indescribable emotion emerged in her heart, making her temporarily confused.
She then gulped down another bottle of beer, hoping it would wash away the sorrow in her heart.
Clenching his fists, Zac panted angrily as he saw Patricia alone, drinking beer.
He had been so worried about her and afraid that harm might befall her.
However, here she was, drinking alone in a snack stall.
At that moment, Zac just wanted to pull her into his arms and kiss her.
Suddenly, a young man greeted her warmly as he took the seat opposite her.
Seeing this, Zac decided to stay hidden in the shadows to observe her behavior.
He would take action if it became necessary.
This time, he wanted her to know what real danger felt like.
He wanted to see if she would continue running around alone in the future after this!
"Miss, are you drinking alone?"
The young man smiled sweetly at her, but his lustful eyes betrayed him.
Noticing the strange look in the man’s eyes, Patricia slightly raised her eyes as she glared at him.
Ignoring his presence, she continued drinking.
Seeing such an aloof woman, the man couldn't help but be in high spirits.
He had subconsciously approached her when he spotted her alone and picked up the kebabs on the
table to eat.
"Drinking alone can be boring.How about I keep you company?"
He then raised his beer and clinked it against her bottle.
Slightly arching her eyebrows at the sight of this, Patricia continued to ignore him, not even wasting a
glance on him.
Judging from his gaze, Patricia could surely predict what the man was planning on doing.
With a snort, she glanced coldly at the man and said in a low voice, "You'd better leave before I lose
my temper."
That one statement had made her intentions clear.
Although she spoke euphemistically, she emitted a strong aura.
Patricia didn't want to behave like Lyndsy, making cruel remarks or showing a ferocious face.
Ignoring what she said, the man wrapped his arm around her shoulders and greedily breathed in the
fragrant scent of her body.
"You are so beautiful, Miss.Why don't we eat together? It'll make you feel better!"
he uttered. Sneering at him, Patricia tossed her beer onto the man's face.
"You are not handsome enough.I'm afraid you don't deserve someone like me!" she stated.
Not wanting to stay there any longer, she stood up from her seat after speaking to the man.
To her surprise, the man grabbed her wrist tightly as soon as she stood up, holding it in a vice-like grip
as if to crush it.
Groaning in pain, she looked around subconsciously.
She wanted to cry out for help, but the onlookers watched this scene indifferently as if viewing a drama.
"Bitch, you are just a little beautiful.How dare you behave like this in front of me?" The man stared at
her savagely.
Pulling her into his arms, he greedily smelled the scent of her body.
"Bros, this woman is really attractive,"
the man shouted with raised eyebrows to his companions two tables away, a wicked smile forming on
his face.
All of a sudden, it dawned on her why no one was coming to her rescue.
Since this man wasn't alone, the others were afraid of this group of hooligans, so they didn't dare step
in and help her.
This was really...Eyes wide open, Patricia gritted her teeth in anger.
As soon as she was about to speak up for herself, she got interrupted by someone else.
"Brat, you'd better let go of her, or no good will come to you," said Zac in a cold voice.
Seeing Patricia in another man's arms made Zac lose his mind in his rage.
He should have taken action earlier.
It wasn't the right time to teach her a lesson! The man looked at Zac with amused eyes.
Noticing Zac's delicate appearance in his suit, he couldn't help laughing atrociously and mocking him.
"Old man, this is not the right time to try to save a beauty.Maybe you haven't noticed, but I am not
alone.Can you defeat my companions and me by yourself?"
The man's companions stood up from their seats when they heard his words and cast an intense gaze
upon Zac.
Seeing this, Zac sneered.
Fascination filled his eyes as he took in this crowd.
What depressed him about this whole situation was that they referred to Patricia as "miss" but treated
him like an old man.
‘Am I really so old?’ Patricia's gaze locked onto Zac in disbelief.
That indescribable feeling emerged in her heart once again.
‘Why did Zac appear again?’ Seeing Patricia's expression, Zac frowned in displeasure, wondering what
she was thinking.
‘Am I so unwelcome? Is she so unhappy to see me?"
Regaining his senses, Zac looked at the men in front of him coldly and said firmly, "So, what? It's
useless if you can't defeat me!"
Patricia was stunned when she heard Zac's comeback.
Frowning, she stared worriedly at Zac, concerned about his safety.
‘Is Zac going crazy? Why is he irritating these hooligans on purpose? Does he not know how difficult it
is for him to defeat so many hooligans alone?’ While Patricia was lost in thought, the hooligans had
become so angry that they clenched their teeth.
This was the first time they had been looked down upon.
Unable to swallow their anger, they waved their fists in the air, ready to attack Zac.
Seeing this, Zac deftly dodged their attacks and slowly made his way towards Patricia.
When he reached her side, he punched the man holding her squarely in the nose.
When the man cried out in pain and moved his hand to cover his nose, Zac stretched out his long arm
and quickly grabbed Patricia by the waist.
Pulling her along, he strode towards a place where there was a crowd of people.
However, he hadn't anticipated that this group of people consisted of more hooligans.
Zac had thought that they could disappear into the crowd.
Unfortunately, they were now being chased by more men.
In the end, had they not hidden in an alley, they would not have been able to escape their predicament.
"Zac," Patricia whispered.
She couldn't figure out why Zac had done what he just did.
He would have easily escaped if not for her, but he refused to let go of her hand.
Zac turned around and looked at Patricia morosely.
"Why did you run away again? Don't you know that you are still in poor health?"
He couldn't help but think that Patricia always caused trouble for him.
Patricia remained silent upon hearing his words.
Zac was right.
If she hadn't left the hospital on her own, she might not have encountered such a situation.
Right then, a thought popped into her mind.
Taking a deep breath, she asked him suspiciously, "Zac, why did you save me?"
Stunned by her question, Zac took a few moments to respond.His eyes were brimming with anger, and
he wished he could open her mind and see what was in it!
‘Why did I save her? Has she become brainless after being so frightened?’ Pulling her into his chest
with his slender arms, he responded seriously, "You are my woman.Who should I save if not you?"
In his eyes, he didn't deserve to be a man if he couldn't even save his own woman.
At that moment, Patricia looked at him in disbelief.
A hint of sadness flashed through her beautiful eyes.
She wondered why Zac was saying such things now.
