Shirley would have forgotten about it had it not been an exceptionally memorable event. Now that the matter was mentioned, it was safe to say it was all Skyler's fault back then.
Last year, at the entrance of the First Meeting, Shirley was beaten up by Sofia and felt humiliated, so she called Veronica, who then told her that she had arranged a blind date for her. At that time, Shirley did not take it to heart and thought Veronica was only trying to comfort her.
That night, she was in such a bad mood that she went to a bar to get drunk and then hailed a cab back to her apartment in her drunken state.
The drunk Shirley saw Skyler and lunged at him while hitting and chastising him, but she soon felt like doing that was not enough. As a result, she slept with him under the influence of alcohol.
When she woke up the following day and saw him sleeping beside her, she was so shocked that she fell from her bed and repeatedly apologized to him while begging him to forget about what happened that night.
Seeing that Sofia had beaten up Shirley, Skyler felt guilty, so he agreed.
Since then, both of them had never mentioned that incident, and no one else knew anything about it besides them. However, she did not imagine that Skyler would suddenly go bonkers and bring up this incident today.
"Yes, I did. I have already forgotten about it for ten months and just happened to remember it today."
"H-How could you…" A flustered Shirley kept her voice extremely low, afraid someone outside might hear her.
"Do you know what I hate the most?"
"W-What?"
"I hate it the most when someone takes away what I used to have!" As he maneuvered the hand that was pinching her jaw, he turned to forcefully pinch her cheeks to relieve the dissatisfaction inside him.
Right when Shirley's eyes had reddened from the pain, he pushed her against the counter and leaned toward her. He was quick to skillfully locate the meeting point and merged their bodies before she had the chance to react.
Feeling wronged, she wanted to cry for help but did not dare to make a sound and even bit her lips to stop herself from groaning.
