Jane was momentarily stunned.
After she reacted, she clumsily tried to get up but was firmly held down by him at her slender waist.
"Take your dirty paws off me."
Zachary not only didn't let go but pressed her closer to himself.
Jane could only move one hand.
She couldn't push him away, so she covered his mouth and teasingly said, "So, Mr. Collins likes to be forceful."
"Let go of Jane!"
Michael threw away his snacks and grabbed Jane's arm, trying to pull her out of Zachary's embrace.
Although Zachary was unwell, he had been trained since childhood.
Naturally, Michael couldn't successfully pull Jane away from him.
Seeing Jane frown, he scolded, "You're hurting her. Her wrist has turned red."
The people in Room 3 were attracted by the chaotic scene in the front row.
Since Michael couldn't pull Jane away, he turned to grab Zachary's wrist, trying to make him let go of
Jane.
But his hand was like a vise, not budging at all.
"I'm sorry, Jane..."
Michael looked at Jane, his eyes filled with dog-like innocence. "I'm too weak. I can't help you. I don't want to use too much strength, I'm afraid I'll hurt you. I... I'll think of something else..." Among the onlookers, a younger girl voiced her discontent, "Sir, can't you see that she's in pain? Her eyes are red, she clearly feels uncomfortable. Just let go already."
Someone chimed in, "Exactly! Just because you're strong doesn't mean you can bully her like this."
"Not necessarily," someone countered. "What if this girl is still with someone else and the current partner is justifiably upset?"
"Don't talk nonsense. How do you know he's the current partner and not just a suitor? This girl is pretty, it's normal to have handsome admirers."
"Don't just judge by looks. No matter how handsome he is, being violent like that doesn't help. I think she's right in not choosing him."
While the crowd was buzzing with discussion, Jane didn't want to be the center of attention.
She looked into Zachary's dark eyes, clearly sensing the strength of his grip, he seemed to be angry.
Yet, his eyes showed no real emotion.

What she once found interesting now only left her feeling irritated.
"Zachary, if you don't let go of me today, you'll regret it.
Zachary couldn't stand that statement.
With his long, defined fingers, he removed her hand that was covering his mouth. "Tell him to leave. I have something to say to you."
Jane scoffed, "Mr. Collins is so used to giving orders from his high perch, but I'm neither your employee nor your partner. Why should I listen to you?" Zachary replied, "You're renting my store, aren't you a business partner?"
Jane, with her free hand, flicked her hair and smiled. "You can take that back. I'll just have Charlotte find another store."
Would Frank be willing?
He would definitely want to have a say in it.
Though they called each other friends, everyone knew Charlotte was more important.
Who would dare to upset Charlotte? Frank would turn on them without a second thought.
But Zachary didn't want to lose his chance tonight. Since he had already pinned her down, he needed to clarify things.
Otherwise, he might not get another opportunity after this.
She certainly wouldn't give him another chance.
"I have serious business to discuss with you."
He softened his tone and glanced at Michael. "I'll clear the place, you let him leave."
