Yvonne checked the time and realized that it was already seven o'clock.
Time passed by too quickly.
He had arrived at her unit around five o'clock just now, and they probably had spoken just for a few minutes before they ended up in the bedroom.
She blushed at the thought.
She felt ashamed of how messy her room became.
Seeing the scene, Yvonne’s remaining inferiority washed away, replaced by confidence.
She certainly stood a chance.
The more he yearned for her, the more she felt apologetic towards him.
She truly owed Zachary a sincere apology.
Growl...
Zachary finally opened his eyes upon hearing her stomach growl a few more times.
He glanced at the woman in his arms and asked, "You didn't have lunch?"
Yvonne simply responded, "Mm."
Zachary tightened his arms and said coldly, "Why didn't you just starve to death then?"
Yvonne was speechless.
However, she sensed a hint of blame in his tone.
The next second, Zachary said, "Get dressed." Yvonne was bewildered by his words, "What?" Zachary had already let go of her and got up. He took a quick shower in the outside bathroom, then went back to the room to put on his clothes.
Meanwhile, Yvonne still sat on the bed dazedly, unable to react to the situation.
Zachary glanced at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"Weekend couple," Yvonne blurted out, "Don't you think we're just like that, considering how we would do it every time we meet? We're like a weekend couple, right?"
"Yvonne, you have guts."
Twenty minutes later.
In the restaurant.
Yvonne followed Zachary's footsteps closely and arrived at a very romantic restaurant.
As soon as she entered, she was able to smell the delicious aroma of food.
She felt even hungrier than she initially did.
However, she could only follow Zachary and dared not say anything else as she was in a difficult position. She worried that if she upset Zachary, he would never let her see Maria again.
She hadn't had the chance to see Maria until now.
She could only behave like a lowly wife; beggars couldn't be choosers.
Zachary walked ahead, and Yvonne followed closely behind him.
Suddenly, someone called out, "Yvonne? Wow, it's really you."
Shocked, Yvonne looked towards the direction where the sound came from.
She saw a man looking at her with surprise and excitement.
Yvonne's heart sank. "Sh*t!" She thought.
There are seven billion people in the world, yet they had to bump into each other that day.
The man quickly walked towards Yvonne. As soon as he got to her, he cast a glance at Zachary and pulled Yvonne aside, completely ignoring him. "Yvonne, I can't believe it's really you. You have no idea how long I've been looking for you. How have you been?" He said excitedly.
