“This woman looks tiny and harmless on the outside, but she’s actually inexplicably tough.What she said is very true.I had better not mess with her!’ Garrett admitted defeat in his mind.

All his life, he had only met sexy and charming women.

They were all weaker than men and this always aroused his pity and love for them.

Laney was the first woman he had met that was charming but tough.She was also stronger than most men, including him.

And this bruised his ego greatly.He thought that it would be unwise to argue with her, so he put on a fake smile and dida welcome hand gesture.

“There’s nothing wrong with that.Please go on.” Then he walked to a treadmill and began to run.He had known from the very beginning that they were two worlds apart.

They were the only ones currently in the gym because it was still working hours.

As a result, they seemed too close to each other even though the gym was spacious.

Laney punched the punching bag a few more times before she began to practice her fighting skills.

Garrett watched her for a while with his mouth agape.

The sight of her fighting skillfully filled him with more fear.

His self-esteem was dwarfed in her presence.

After making several futile attempts to concentrate on his exercise, he decided to pack up and leave.

Laney sneered under her breath when she saw him pick up his fitness bag carefully and make his way for the door.She wasn’t surprised one bit.

Ever since she became a professional fighter, she had come across a lot of men like him.

Not only did they find it weird that a girl like her was a good fighter, but they were also intimidated by her.
