Her eyes remained locked on Blayze as she sipped.
She wanted to gauge his reaction.
A soft chuckle escaped Blayze.
In her inebriation, Sabrina had transformed from her sober self into something undeniably
endearing and whimsical.
Having consumed half her glass, Sabrina drew a deep breath, lowered her head and raised
her hand to furrow her brow.
Assured that he wouldn’t intercede, Sabrina refilled her glass and continued drinking.

“Why are you drinking? Is there something troubling you?”
After a moment’s contemplation, Sabrina’s lips curled into a wry smile. She raised her
gaze to meet his and uttered softly, “Tyrone, don’t you understand? How could you not
know…”
Blayze found himself at a loss for words. Clearly, this had something to do with Tyrone.
Could it be that she harbored deep affection for Tyrone?
Not too long ago, Tyrone was still engaged in an affair with Galilea. How could he possibly
deserve someone like Sabrina?
Blayze hesitated and finally spoke, his voice tinged with uncertainty.
“Did I cause you sorrow?”
Sabrina slowly lowered her glass, fixing her gaze upon the tabletop. Her silence persisted
for what felt like an eternity, and then, in a trembling, tear-choked whisper, she revealed,
“Tyrone, you’ve truly made me love and despise you…”
Her voice quivered, choked by the weight of her emotions. Blayze shifted his finger
uneasily.
Unbeknownst to her, tears welled up in her eyes, quivering precariously before
crystallizing on her lower lashes.

beat.
It was abundantly clear she held a deep affection for Tyrone.
Yet, how could Tyrone be deserving of such devotion?
Sabrina wiped her eyes and drained the remaining wine in her glass.
Blayze maintained a silent vigil. He observed as she continued to indulge, leaning in close
and persisting in the drinking.
With a gentle but firm hand, he took away her glass, settled the tab, hoisted her up, and
guided her out of the bar, ultimately placing her gently in the back seat of the car.
Sabrina, already inebriated, lay in a state of blissful inertia within the car’s interior.
Blayze, slipping into the passenger seat from the opposite side, spoke to the driver.
