Way Back Into Love (Essie)
Chapter 31 Do You Like Me
With his left hand, Zac grasped Essie's waist tightly. And using his other hand, he threw her floater to Mandy. "Hold it. Don't damage it again," he warned, before bringing his attention back to Essie.
Mandy didn't like the way he had ordered her out! Essie, on the other hand, was too scared to be reacting. With her forehead oozing sweat, she asked, "What about me? What will I do? I can't swim!"
"You got me!" After flashing her a mischievous smile, he grabbed her arms and placed them around his neck.
Flushed with shyness, she stared at him angrily and was overcome with an urge to kick him. But her life depended on him, hence she didn't dare to do anything crazy. Instead, she clung onto him like he was her last hope.
Knowing too well she was doing this only because she had no other choice, Zac let out a smile of victory. As he took back his arm from her waist, she fell into his arms.
"If you are afraid of drowning, then be obedient. Don't move!" he spoke in a presumptuous tone and was proud that his ruthless and shameless trick was working. At present, her condition was akin to that of a meat on the chopping board, waiting for him to cut her into pieces.
