Chapter 898

He reached out to her again.

Sylvia’s gaze shifted but did not avoid it this time.

She would agree to let him touch her face if he agreed to let her go.

As she showed no intentions of avoiding his touch, he stroked her face and said softly, “Sylvia, you two had been through a lot together, and he still doesn’t trust you. He hates you, he’s not a man you can rely on.”

Sylvia slapped his hand away. “No, he trusts me and he likes me. He’s good to me.”

“Then why didn’t he bring you to dinner the other day?”

“That’s because he knew I didn’t want to go. He’s just there for the sake of showing up. There’s no reason to bring me along.”

He grinned. “Is that what he told you?”

“Yes and I believed him,” she said as she stared into his eyes.

“Okay. I’ll let it slip.” A quick pause later, he continued, “Then why is he not talking to you for the past two days? Is it because of the kiss mark I left on your neck?”

Sylvia’s expression shifted. “That’s none of your business.”

He chuckled. “Look, he’s concerned and he doesn’t trust you.”

“He’s not like that!”

“If he’s not like that, why didn’t he go home to you? Why didn’t he pick up your call? Why do you have to go to his office instead of him coming back to you?” he said as he stared at her.

Sylvia’s gaze shifted. “How did you know?” He widened his grin. “I went through your phone.”

Sylvia found his grin terrifying. She immediately thought of Lily, who lured her into the car, and asked with a trembling voice,“ You and Lily are together in this?”

“Yup,” he answered frankly.

Sylvia glared at him. “Thomas, why can’t you let me go? I have my own life and I never did anything wrong to you. Why are you torturing me like this?”

A strong sense of disgust gushed into her head and it caused her to push him away.

He staggered but he regained his balance and approached her once more, hugging her into his arms.

He curled his strong arms around her and refrained her from raising her arms. At the same time, he whispered, “Sylvia, come back to me. I promise I’ll be good to you, I won’t threaten you anymore.”
