Seeing that Patricia was about to run out of patience, Zac said with a smile, "Don't you know that there is always deception in war?"

"Well..."

Looking at Zac's handsome face, a tinge of bitterness settled in her heart. He was absolutely correct.

War did beget deception.

And she had already been defeated by him.

Hadn't she? Growing up, she had always heard that when two people were in a relationship, the one who gave their heart first lost the race.

If so, then she was the loser in this game called love.

And although she didn't want to be like this, she couldn't change the fact that she had given her heart to Zac at the tender age of six when he had saved her life.

Now, she wanted nothing more than to retrieve her heart; she just didn't know when that would happen.

After Zac's statement and her train of thought, Patricia's mood suddenly changed.

This left Zac confused and wondering what had caused this shift in her temperament.

‘Wasn't she just provoking me and backing me into a corner? Women really are complicated! It is so hard to guess what they are thinking!’ Well, he didn't want to guess! And given that he still had a heavy workload awaiting him back at the office, he decided to finish eating quickly so he could return.

Having made up his mind, Zac continued eating.

Patricia, who was now in a foul mood, became more irritable when she saw Zac happily eating his meal.

Annoyed, she picked back up her chopsticks and began eating again.
