The bartender looked so compelling that Anna started to be guilty. She couldn’t bear to be stared at by Zach. She was thinking about how to deal with it.
She composed herself, trying to explain patiently, “I think you’ve forgotten it. It’s been so long. I nearly forget this bar. How can I remember if I got drunk or not on that night?”
The bartender looked at her. Then he turned to Zach, who looked more sensible. He decided not to argue with her, leaving silently.
Anna pulled Zach’s arm at once, “Zach, don’t believe him! He is talking nonsense! How can anyone remember anything clearly that happened three years ago?!”
“You are right.” Zach nodded.
She felt relieved. Zach raised his glass, taking a sip of wine. He was truly a handsome gentleman. This was her first time observing Zach. She didn’t think Zach could live up to Logan. But now she realized that he was not bad.
“Alright. Just forget it. Well, what are you going to say to me?”
Zach was calm. He finished the wine and put the glass on the desk heavily.
Anna was scared by his rudeness, looking at him with shock.
Zach faked a smile, then he showed her all the evidence he found these days, “Anna Lee. I think we are friends, and I always believe you. But you lied to me. Can you tell me the truth now?”
Anna had a look at the evidence. What she saw made her hands tremble.
“What exactly happened three years ago?”
“Zach…”
She was frozen when she saw the video, “Where…did you find it?”
“You know it, don’t you?” He looked at her coldly and indifferently. The affection was all gone.
“If you didn’t come to Sophia or show her photos, I would have no idea how you set me up three years ago!”
“No, I didn’t!”
“The video doesn’t tell lies! It’s your plan, your perfect plan. And now you are denying it? Come on, don’t be stupid.”
“You are mistaken. Look, I did not get drunk. I wanted to leave after sending you on the bed, but you pulled me and I had no way to go…”
“Oh, really?”
Zach sneered, showing her a recorder, “It was a camera recording from the hotel.”
He clicked the button; her voice came out from the recorder.
“Alright. Throw him to the bed.”
“Hey, Miss Lee, you asked us to bring him here; do you want to lure him for money?”
“Get out! It’s none of your business.”
“Hey, listen. If that’s what you want, you can hire us for more hours. We are so good at acting. We can act as your brothers and help you get more money from him.”
