Noticing the strange glint in his eyes, a nervous fluttered in her stomach. Sabrina rubbed her armsuneasily and asked, “You… Why are you looking at me like that?”

Tyrone’s knowing smile grew as he approached her with deliberate steps. With meaningful emphasis,he spoke. “Sabrina, I just know how bold you are.”

“What? Really? What makes you think so?” Sabrina cautiously took a step back, the hair on the back ofher neck raising in apprehension.

She assumed Tyrone must have found something out.

Tyrone slowly took a paper out of his pocket and unfolded the sheet in front of Sabrina, revealing thecontract. “You signed this yourself. Don’t you remember?”

Damn it! Her plan was exposed. Sabrina felt her chest tighten in panic as she desperately tried to figureout how to deal with this situation. But she didn’t forget the reason she did so in the first place. Tyronehad lied to her, so she shouldn’t feel guilty for making him hurt.

Determination flickering in her eyes, Sabrina took a deep breath and puffed out her chest. Sheapproached him and retrieved the contract.

“Yes, I did. What’s wrong with that?”

Observing her unashamed expression, Tyrone let out a dry laugh, a mix of anger and amusement.“What’s wrong? You hired a fake boyfriend to fool me. And you’re asking me what’s wrong?”

“I just gave you a dose of your own medicine. That’s all.”

“What I did was for the sake of your own safety…”

“So, you can hurt me by being with another woman whenever you want.

Is that right?” Gazing straight into Tyrone’s eyes, Sabrina’s expression was grim, her words deliberateand measured. “Tyrone, you’ve used those words to hurt my feelings because you want to protect me,but do you even care about what I want? Have you ever respected my choices?”

Resolved in his choice, Tyrone responded, “Sabrina, you can blame me all you want. I had no choice atthat time. But if I ever had to make the same decision again, I wouldn’t change a thing.”

His words only intensified Sabrina’s anger. He still refused to admit his mistake.

“In that case, you can leave now. You lied to me, and I lied back, so let’s call it even. Don’t bother meagain!” Sabrina declared coldly, turning away from him with her arms folded.

“Sabrina! Are you sure?”

“Yes, I am,” Sabrina said firmly.

Confronted with her resolve, Tyrone looked at her back, which was stubbornly turned away from him.He had no choice but to compromise.

He reached out, tenderly touching her shoulder, and turned her back to face him. “Alright, it’s my fault. Ishouldn’t have done that.

Sabrina, please forgive me, okay?”

He had initially planned to blame her when he confronted her. However, in truth, he was the one toblame.

Sabrina, her anger evident, responded with a sardonic smile. He was only forced to admit his mistakeand apologize this time, but he would likely do it again in the future.

“You just said you’d do the same thing if you were presented with the same choice again. How are youin the wrong, then? What you did was right. I have no right to forgive you,” Sabrina retorted with atouch of sarcasm.
