Chapter 202
Sean had always been self-confident since he was young.
For a bit, Zack's question about his weight dampened his mood.
"Do you also think that I put on some weight?" Sean seemed a little puzzled.
"I didn't get heavier.Why does everyone ask me if I've been filling out?"
He couldn't wrap his mind around it.
Zack taunted, "Tch, seems like you don't even realize the truth yourself"
Sean choked, flabbergasted.
He defended, "What? Do the extra pounds affect my impeccably good looks?"
Zack was relentless.
"There's nothing to affect.You can't do anything about your unattractive face, anyway.It just adds a bit of something to pick on?
Sean shook it off and asserted, "Hey, it's the New Year! It's not good to fight when the year has just started!"
He continued, "So, will you tell me how Katherine rejected you?"
Let him have his fun annoying Zack.
But of course, Sean didn't make it obvious how much he was taking pleasure in his friend's misery.He was afraid that he might
end up driving himself to the hospital instead of his home.
Zack chose to stay silent and just sent him a sharp look.
Sean, now terrified, instinctively averted his eyes to look out the window.
He offered, "Well, the weather looks great today.How about I treat you to a meal?"
"Just drive!"
Zack was in a bad mood, but Sean always liked to provoke him each time.
He wouldn't be so forgiving to Sean if he continued.
Sean noticed the familiar dark look that swept over Zack's face and decided against ruffling Zack's feathers further.
He kept his mouth shut and focused solely on driving.
There were many cars on the road today, and they hadn't moved since they got off the highway.
Sean was bored to death.
He turned to Zack beside him and started, "To be honest, I understand that Katherine doesn't like you, but why doesn't she like
me too? Didn't you ask me to apologize to her last time?"
He didn't wait for an answer and continued, "My goodness, I sent her a text message, and it turned out that she blocked my
number."
Zack could hear the sarcasm behind Sean's words.
He looked at him and asked, "Are you implying that I blocked your number?"
Sean didn't bother to reply.
There was no need for that.
He sighed and straightened his back a bit.
He decided to switch topics.
"Did you really not make any progress in the past few days? Is Katherine really that stubborn that her walls are still erected
around her heart?"
"No” Zack replied curtly, looking at the rows of cars ahead.
"That's too bad, Sean said.
"Don't drive to my apartment.I won't be going back there yet.I'll go straight to the boxing gym" Zack instructed.
Sean sighed.
"Don't be like this.I didn't mean to make fun of you that much! Well, I did on my mind, but..."
"Shut up!"
Zack cut him off immediately.
Sean still wanted to poke fun at his friend, but when he saw the look in Zack's eyes, he opted to shut his mouth instead.
There was really no winning for him over Zack.
It was already past four in the afternoon when Katherine returned to her villa.
She waited for exactly two hours and ten minutes to get in a cab.
The traffic was heavy, so it took her another half-hour to get home.
She spent a total of three hours going to her villa from the airport.
Frankly speaking, she kind of regretted not taking Zack's offer earlier.
She underestimated the number of people who traveled back and would return to work after the holidays.
After returning home, the first thing Katherine did was order a simple dinner for herself.
After eating, even before seven o'clock, she took a relaxing bath with some lavender oil and went straight to bed at around eight
o'clock.
She was already asleep when her phone rang.
Given that she stood for more than two hours this afternoon and was abruptly woken up not long after she fell asleep, Katherine
couldn't help the cold and hostile tone in her voice.
"What is it?"
Alice, who was on the other end of the line, was shocked and timidly replied, "Sorry, did I wake you up?"
Katherine narrowed her eyes and turned on the lights in her room.
She looked at the time and scoffed in anger and disbelief.
"Well, obviously.Just get straight to the point, will you?"
Alice didn't need to hear it twice.
She told Katherine, "Alright, you and Zack are on the trending topic again."
"Okay, I got it."
After saying that, Katherine immediately hung up the phone.She didn't care about it one bit.She decided to deal with it after a
good night's sleep.
