"Shannon!" William's face was terrifyingly sullen, but a smile remained plastered across his face, though it looked peculiar," How did you get in?"
Shannon put away the smile on her face and said aggressively, "It's tiring to fake a smile. I wonder how you do it so often."
After saying that, she looked around the private room and sat on the sofa. After adjusting to a more comfortable posture, she said leisurely, "You're quite forgetful, M r. Isaac. My grandmother gave me this bar a s my birthday present. You even came during the opening day. I had nothing to do today, so I came to have a drink and check on the bar while I'm at it. When I got a little tipsy from the drinking, I became too lazy t o go home and planned to come upstairs to crash in a private room. But I heard such horrendous words as I was passing by. Looks like my luck is still good as ever."
After a pause, she blinked her eyes and continued, "See, I can't pretend to not see what I've seen. After all, my grandma has always taught me to be a good person. Say, i f I call the police now, do you think it'll cause any negative repercussions on you?"
William could not keep the smile on his face anymore and asked through clenched teeth, "What do you want?"
Shannon started thinking seriously. After thinking about it for a while, she sighed and said somewhat helplessly, "I don't lack anything. If I must think of something, then I lack a man. But certainly not one like you who's old and hideous. I feel
uncomfortable just looking at your physique." "You!" William was so furious that his face had turned green.
Shannon was not afraid of him and continued to anger him. "How about this? Let her slap you back the same way you slapped her and we’ll call it quits."
William’s expression was as dark as the abyss. Noticing that his hands had formed fists, I began to worry if he would hit Shannon.
However, my fear did not come true. He suppressed the anger in his heart and actually nodded to agree.
Both Lally and I did not come back to our senses even after he personally untied us.
Shannon got up and walked over while looking at us.
William glanced at her and turned around t o leave.
"Why are you in a rush to leave?" Shannon asked coldly.
William stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at her. "Is there anything else I can do for you, Ms. Collins?"
