“Mr. Sinclair…” she cooed, but the next second, pain shot through her abdomen.
“Ouch!”

“Out of my sight!” Lysander’s frosty voice cut through the air.
The executives around the room, witnessing Susan’s dramatic tumble, were stunned, each keeping mum, trying to
shrink into the background, not daring to provoke Lysander further.
Ethan couldn’t help but stifle a chuckle at the sight of Susan’s plight. He’d always known that Lysander wasn’t one
for the ladies. Countless sultry beauties had tried their luck and been coldly dismissed.

come close.
Susan hit the ground hard, her face contorting in pain, struggling to rise, her eyes welling up as she stuttered an
apology, “Mr. Sinclair, I’m so sorry, I must have been lightheaded from low blood sugar, nearly falling onto you.
Fortunately, you pushed me away. I promise this won’t happen again.”
“There won’t be a next time. Don’t let me see you again!” Lysander’s piercing gaze swept over Susan before he
stood and left the private booth, leaving a trail of chilling air.

Susan felt disgusted as the sleazy trio moved in on her. The humiliation she’d suffered at Lysander’s hands turned
into rage.
She lashed out at the men, her voice losing any trace of softness, “Back off! You think you can have a piece of me?
Look in the mirror before you get such lofty ideas!”
“Whoa, the little lady’s got a temper!” one of them sneered.
“You weren’t so high and mighty when you were flaunting yourself in front of Mr. Sinclair!”
“We’ve decided we want you tonight! You’re nothing but a reject that Sinclair didn’t want. No more playing the

should talk it over?”
