At that moment, Andrea stirred awake, rubbing her eyes. There weren't any noticeable marks on her body because Liam was too inexperienced to do anything rough.

She sat there for several seconds, dazed, then climbed out of bed. Her face was pale with a green tint to it.

Her reaction made Liam believe even more that last night had been entirely his drunken fault. It was his first time with a girl, and he had no clue how to handle any of it.

Andrea suddenly dropped to her knees. "Mr. Lambert, if you don't want to see me anymore, I'll leave today and never bother you again," she said, her voice trembling.

Liam felt his heart twist in pain. He had been so lonely these past weeks, desperate to hear from Grace and see her, but she hadn't even called-not even once.
