I Loved You in the Dark Until Someone Loved Me in the Light novel Chapter 156

"Me? Aggressive?" Gillian scoffed, as if she had just heard the funniest joke in the world.

York's dark eyes remained completely devoid of emotion. "Are you saying you're not?"

He had already made up his mind. No matter what she said, York would never believe her.

Gillian's chest tightened. She took a deep breath, tearing her gaze away from York's apathetic face. The more she looked at him, the more like a stranger he became.

Ever since Hailey returned, his attitude toward her had done a complete one-eighty.

"Fine," Gillian said, too exhausted to defend herself. "Whatever you say."

Whether York believed her or not meant absolutely nothing to her anymore.

*Honk—*

A sleek black Maybach pulled up right behind York's car, its horn cutting through the tension.

York glanced at his rearview mirror. It was Xavier Sterling's car. His eyes darkened dangerously as they snapped back to Gillian. "It seems you've forgotten the promise you made me."

Hailey bit her lip, not daring to interject, merely tightening her grip on the gift bags. It was glaringly obvious that York was furious about Gillian interacting with another man.

Gillian had arranged to meet Xavier after work to visit her father in prison and check on his living conditions.

Since Xavier was available, he had offered to pick her up.

Gillian took a steadying breath and glanced at Hailey. "You should get in. Don't keep your boyfriend waiting, and you're holding up traffic."

Without waiting to see the expressions on either of their faces, she turned and walked straight toward Xavier's car.

York's brows knitted together, his dark eyes radiating a glacial chill.
