Chapter 248

Katherine grabbed her bag and stood up.

She went out of the room first, while Zack followed her afterward.

Unexpectedly, they bumped into an acquaintance when they reached downstairs.

It was surprising for Sean to come to the restaurant for business purposes today, but he was more
baffled when he saw Katherine and Zack together.

"Katherine! Zack!" Sean had a confused and curious expression on his face.

Zack, of course, immediately noticed the look Sean was giving them.

If Katherine weren't here, he would probably kick his friend for being too nosy.

"Mr.Lewis, what a coincidence," Katherine replied in a calm tone.

Sean grinned at her.He was about to ask Katherine if she wanted to go ona friendly date with him when
he suddenly felt shivers on his back.He stiffened and met Zack's murderous gaze directed at him.

Sean cleared his throat and hurriedly thought of an excuse.

"Uh, unfortunately, I still have something to do.I'll go back to the private room first, and maybe we can
make an appointment tomorrow!" he smoothly said.

Sean didn't wait for Katherine's answer.

He quickly turned around and walked back to the private room.

A small smile immediately formed on Katherine's face.

She looked at Zack when an idea crossed her mind.



"Looks like you're not very fond of seeing Mr.Lewis that much."

"Something like that."

Zack didn't even bother to deny it.

Shocked by his answer, Katherine’s eyebrows raised as she stared at him.

"Why?" she asked.

"Sean is very talkative," Zack simply said.

"Oh."

Indeed, Sean always seemed like he had a lot to say, and he could even say the things he shouldn't tell
anyone.

Katherine looked away and shrugged her shoulders.She continued walking towards the restaurant's
exit.Her car was parked in the parking lot of the Blue Water Dining.She pressed her key fob as she
walked towards her car.She was about to open the car door, ready to climb inside, when she realized
that Zack was still following her.

"Zack?" she asked in confusion.

A slight frown was painted on her face.

‘We already ate a meal together.Why is he still following me?’ Katherine thought.

"I didn’t bring a car.Since my place is on your way, would you mind dropping me off there?" Zack said.

A smile registered on Katherine's face right after he finished his sentence.



"Aren't you scared that I'll drop you off in the suburbs again?" she teased.

"Well, if that's what you want to do." Katherine's smile quickly disappeared.

She opened the door on the driver's seat and glanced at Zack.

"Get in the car," she commanded.

Katherine knew how to be kind when someone treated her well.

But if someone hurt her, she wouldn't hesitate to hurt them back, too.The car slowly moved away from
the restaurant.

Fifteen minutes later, both of them arrived at Zack's apartment.

Katherine would often come here to his place in the three years that they were married.

However, Zack wasn't aware of this fact.

As soon as the memories from the past crossed her mind again, Katherine's mood instantly dropped.

The smile on her face vanished, and it was replaced with nothing but coldness.

"We're here.Get out of the car," she uttered in an indifferent voice.

Zack unfastened his seat belt before staring at her stoic face.

"Can you give me another chance, Katherine?"

The moon was in full display tonight.

The moonlight beautifully lit up the whole city.



Everything seemed perfect until Zack decided to utter those words.

Katherine looked at him coldly.

"Do you think I can give you another chance?" Zack went out of the car, but he didn't walk to his
apartment.

Instead, he went around to the driver's seat and opened the door, "Come on, I'll drive you to your
home," he told her.

Katherine smirked at him.

"You're already in your thirties, Zack.Don't you feel like we're both too old to play tricks with each
other?" she said.

"I don't think so," Zack immediately responded.

As long as he could stay with her for a longer time, who would care if the world saw him as a fool? Of
course, Zack didn't say this out loud.

He knew that Katherine would be upset at him again if he said his thoughts out loud.

Now, he was able to control Katherine’s anger slowly.

Her temper and attitude towards him were not that okay yet, but it was not very bad either.

As long as she didn't lose her patience and good mood, she was actually easy to talk to.

Zack admitted that he was a little despicable for taking advantage of Katherine's patience to slowly
build her trust in him and get her heart again.



But Zack realized that life was short, and he had lived for thirty-two years before he met the person he
would love for the rest of his life.

If he weren't despicable or didn't play his cards right, he would end up alone, just like Sean.

Wasn't it nice to spend your life with someone by your side? Why would Zack choose to be single,
right?
