His tone turned icy. \u201cI warned you. Don\u2019t act drunk and take advantage of me. You may be intoxicated, but you\u2019re not completely out of it. You know what you\u2019re doing.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity was indeed aware.<\/div>\n<div>However, the alcohol had made her quite impulsive.<\/div>\n<div>Despite his repeated warnings, Serenity couldn\u2019t keep her hands to herself.<\/div>\n<div>There was no way a big man like him could be frightened by a young lady\u2019s advances.<\/div>\n<div>He would become a laughingstock if anyone found out.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cZachary\u2026\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity giggled and asked, \u201cDo you have some sort of issue like the heir of the Yorks?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>He seemed more innocent than she was when it came to matters between men and women.<\/div>\n<div>With alcohol buzzing in her head, Serenity couldn\u2019t resist teasing him.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWhat kind of issue?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cYou either can\u2019t get it up, or you swing the other way.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary\u2019s face darkened.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cNana has been playing matchmaker for us. I thought a man in his thirties who is still single must be unattractive. I realized I was wrong when I met you. You\u2019re not unattractive; in fact, you\u2019re quite handsome.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cSo, I was wondering if there was something wrong with you\u2026\u201d Amid her laughter, Serenity\u2019s hands wandered over his chiseled face. \u201cZachary, are you a wife beater? I should warn you that I\u2019m trained in self-defense, and I\u2019ll fight back if you lay a hand on me.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cOh my, I\u2019m tempted to kiss your handsome face. How about you give me a smooch? Come on, pucker up\u2026\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity\u2019s<\/p>\n<p>Zachary\u2019s insolent advances and arrogance pushed Serenity to her limits. He pressed her down in the backseat, towering over her with his muscular frame while pinning her hands above her head. Leaning in, he sealed her babbling lips with his own. <\/p>\n<p>He was determined to show her something new. Perhaps Serenity was tipsy, as she did not lapse into shock as she had previously. Instead, she responded with unexpected passion. <\/p>\n<p>Zachary had intended to give her a gentle butterfly kiss, but her reaction ignited a desire within him. He deepened the kiss, locking his tongue with hers. <\/p>\n<p>After they broke apart, Zachary exited the car and grabbed her feet, dragging her out. He hoisted her from the vehicle, slamming the door shut before tossing her over his shoulder. With Serenity dangling upside-down, Zachary began to walk away. <\/p>\n<p>Still dazed from the kiss, Serenity barely processed being lifted off the seat. The next moment, she found herself slung over his shoulder, the pressure on her stomach making her uncomfortable. She struggled against him. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cZachary! Zachary! Put me down!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>His grip was rough. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cCouldn\u2019t you at least show a little tenderness?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>He ignored her pleas. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cZachary, I promise I won\u2019t flirt with you. I\u2019ll stick to our agreement. Just put me down. I feel nauseous. I might throw up all over you!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary warned her sternly, \u201cDon\u2019t you dare vomit on me.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen let me go! I feel sick.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you still drunk?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, but\u2026 oh no, I\u2019m a bit sober now. Well, half-sober.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>After hearing her response, Zachary smirked briefly before straightening his expression. He finally set her down so she could walk. <\/p>\n<p>Then, he simply walked away, leaving her behind.<\/p>\n<div>\u2026 Was he angry?<\/div>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i class=\"icon ion-md-settings\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 148 As Zachary woke her, Serenity sat up and rubbed her eyes innocently, staring directly at him without blinking.
