Chapter 23 Are You Giving Me Attitude?

• Lara steadied herself before pushing Patrick away. “Thanks.” She didn’t like it when a stranger got too close to her, nor did she like being touched by a man, though Damian was an exception. At the thought of Damian, she felt a twinge of sadness in her heart. She turned around and went toward the door.
• The bar was irritatingly rowdy, with numerous bodies swaying freely on the dance floor, while the deafening music made Lara’s head throb with pain. After pushing away the man who had caught up to her, she accidentally bumped into someone else. Just as the man before her was about to break into curses, he looked up and saw Patrick behind her. Stunned, he opened his mouth and greeted, “Young Master Patrick.”
• Patrick shot daggers at the man, who immediately ran away with his tail between his legs. When he looked up again, there was no sign of Lara in the bar anymore. He knitted his brows and strode out of the bar’s entrance.
