She's Too Busy Winning to Watch Him Cry novel Chapter 448

Rowan took a step closer, cornering her. "I did plan on teaching Jasmine a lesson, but I didn't expect you to be in such a rush to throw me away."

"At least when Jasmine was by my side, she was considerate. Unlike you, zipping up your dress and pretending I don't exist the second we're done. Was I not taking care of you? I made damn sure you got yours in bed, didn't I?"

Lyra let out a mocking laugh. "If I don't love you, I don't love you. You can't force it. I guess you're just too pathetic in bed to hold my interest."

A dangerous, violent storm brewed in Rowan's eyes. He reached out and grabbed her arm, his knuckles turning white as his grip tightened.

Pain shot through her arm, but Lyra fought back with everything she had, wrenching herself free. She stumbled back half a step, glaring at him with absolute contempt. "Touch me again, and I swear to God, the front doors of that public toilet will face directly into the Jameson Group lobby."

Rowan let out a dark, menacing chuckle. "Build it. Go ahead. Let's see if your construction crew is faster than my bulldozers."

The color drained entirely from Lyra's face, leaving her chalky and pale.

Just as the tension reached a lethal breaking point, a nurse's sharp voice echoed from behind them. "What is all this yelling?"

The young nurse took one look at Rowan's terrifying, thunderous expression and immediately lost all her bravado. She managed a weak squeak, "This is a hospital... you can't fight here."

...

Lyra returned home alone to find a strange car parked outside, an unfamiliar driver standing by the door.

As she approached, she noticed someone huddled in the shadows by the wall.
