Chapter 207 Self Respect
Cora had already told Byron before that after they broke up, they should pretend that they didn't know each other.
So when he approached her, she calmly walked past him, intending to avoid any interaction.
However, Byron seemed to be deliberately annoying her, blocking her path directly.
"New boyfriend?"
His voice was colder than the wind scraping against her face.
Only then did Cora look up at him.
Then, she saw mockery and indifference written all over his face.
After Cora came back to her senses, she realized that Byron had misunderstood her relationship with Lucas.
It didn't matter if others misunderstood her, but Byron just couldn't.
Before getting together with Byron, she had never devoted herself to any other man.
If it weren't for his impending engagement, she would have wanted to continue to be with him without asking for a commitment.
Yet, he misunderstood her intentions, which made Cora feel insulted.
"Yes, he's not bad-looking, and his figure is on par with yours, Mr. Hansen," Cora responded sarcastically.
It wasn't clear whether Byron grasped the underlying meaning, but he coldly reminded her, "A girl should have self-respect."
"I don't have self-respect, and I'm sure you knew that long ago," Cora smirked provocatively.
She was referring to their first time sleeping together, which also happened after leaving the bar.
That was what Byron cared about most, not wanting anyone to witness her vulnerable and endearing side in that situation.
Some emotions almost broke free from their restraints, and Byron was tempted to pull her back into his embrace.
