"I'll be careful. Okay. Let's have dinner together in a few more days."
Stephanie held her phone and perfunctorily responded to Jenny, but she couldn't help but glance nervously at Paul sitting opposite her.
She chose not to tell Jenny about Paul being right in front of her. She'd seen the news reports for the past few days and knew the Walters were in turmoil. She didn't want Jenny to worry about her during such a time. Besides, Paul was just sitting across from her and hadn't done anything to her, they hadn't even spoken to each other.
After hanging up the call, Stephanie placed her phone on the table and carefully picked up her glass to take a shallow sip of water, barely able to suppress her fear. But no matter how much she tried to stay calm, Paul could still see her fear toward him.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Stephanie unconsciously tightened her grip on the glass and took a while to relax before replying, "No."
"Really? You look so nervous; it doesn't seem like you're unaffected." Paul sneered. They hadn't seen each other for a few days, but Stephanie's lying skills didn't seem to have improved at all.
Stephanie put down her glass of water and looked at him. "What do you want?"
"Can't I see you when there's nothing going on? Did you think you could relax just because you came to Bardoff City?" His intent gaze fixed on Stephanie made her feel like she was suffocating.
Stephanie couldn't catch her breath under his gaze but still bravely asked, "What have I done to offend you? Why do you have to keep following me?"
She had to flee her hometown with her parents because of him. What more could he want?

Loved the novel!! Hated the ending. It felt rushed to get it finished. I hope there is a sequel. There is a ton of potential for one....
The adds are getting worse! I shouldn't have to see porn to read a book...
