"I-I am okay." Shirley shook her head as she pushed Skyler away to keep some distance from him. She didn't want Sofia to misunderstand the situation.
When she moved a few steps to her left and kept herself away from him, she wasn't expecting Sofia's slap to land on her face as the woman scolded, "Making a move on my boyfriend? Do you have a death wish?!"
Sofia's hand landed on Shirley's face, making a clear and loud noise.
The blow landed right on Shirley's ear, and it was ringing right now. Taken aback by Sofia's move, Shirley paused for a beat before she put a hand next to her ear to rub where she was hit.
It hurts!
"Sofia, are you out of your mind? I'm the one to blame! This has got nothing to do with her!"
Skyler dragged Shirley away from Sofia's view as he stepped in front of Shirley to keep her out of Sofia's reach. Anger was boiling within him as he glared at Sofia.
Their eyes bored into each other. Skyler took his time to study the woman with a nice figure in front of him. He had been missing her every second in the past, but now he could no longer recognize her.
She had become a stranger to him.
Skyler was rejecting the thought of Sofia returning to the country after all these years. He couldn't accept the truth and hoped to run away, so Sofia couldn't find him.
He never prepared to see her in her old self, still bossing people around.
Sofia pointed at Shirley. "This b*tch is trying to seduce you! I'm just teaching her a lesson. Did you forget what I've told you in the past?"
"Stop mentioning the past!" Skyler growled at her as soon as she finished her words.
Watching her with a pair of cold eyes, he clenched his fists before he pulled Shirley into his embrace. He grabbed her waist in his left arm while his right hand held her chin in a firm grip as he pressed a kiss onto her lips.
The kiss was as light as a feather.
After that, he released Shirley and turned to Sofia. "Are you satisfied now?"
He then sneered. "You should know that people have no obligation to wait for you if you want to leave, especially me. I won't wait for anyone."
He was saying these words against his will.
