"No, I'm busy this afternoon!"

Patricia replied coldly and without hesitation as she continued to consume her meal.

Her beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted, giving off the impression of annoyance.

Zac's mood turned sour when she said that.

'How could this woman be so rude? So many people are anxiously awaiting my invitation, yet here she is readily refusing me.How could she reject me like that? I have always been a man of my word.So, how could I allow others to confront me like this in public?'’ His good mood was now long gone.

Thus, Zac's following words were cold like ice.  

"Five o'clock, on the dot!" said Zac firmly.

He didn't leave room for discussion or rebuttals.

This time it was an order! Before Patricia could respond, he had grabbed Lyndsy's arm, swung them around, and headed straight for the door.

"Zac!"

Patricia immediately rose from her seat, ready to give him a piece of her mind, but he was almost out the door with Lyndsy in tow.

"You son of a bitch! You're always like this! Who do you think you are? Why should I have to listen to you? Have you already forgotten? I've divorced you.We're divorced, damn it!"

Looking at their retreating figures, Patricia was so infuriated that she couldn't help stomping her feet in frustration.

Zac saw this and couldn't help but think she looked adorable during her little fit of rage.

Seeing Patricia like this made Lily smile in delight.Although she didn't look good now, Lily could sense a girlish feeling from Patricia.

This was the real Patricia! She would stamp her feet when angry, and she would laugh when she felt happy, instead of being the cold and unapproachable woman she was all day long.

"Bastard! That bastard..."

Having forgotten that she was still in the restaurant, Patricia kept shouting "bastard" towards the retreating figure of Zac.

"Miss Sampson, Mr.Reynolds has left!"

Lily informed her in a good-natured mood as she watched him leave.
