Keira bit her lip when the bouncer started handcuffing her with Zach.

"The key will be given to the bidder who won, so she will decide when it's time to let you go. Enjoy, bro!" The bouncer said teasingly as he winked at Zach and handed the key over to Keira.

"Thanks…" Keira said to the bouncer then she turned her head to Zach and gave him a sweet smile.

"Hi, we met again. I'm Keira Chan," she said casually as she offered her right hand for a handshake.

'Wow, I'm so good at this.' She mused proudly when she was able to maintain her calmness.

She might have looked casual on the outside but she was already screaming inside. She was too excited and nervous at the same time that her knees felt weak the moment Zach was near her. Butterflies were rumbling all over her stomach. Not to mention the electricity she felt when Zach's hand accidentally brushed on her when the bouncer cuffed them.

Zach, on the other hand, was taken aback by Keira's cheerfulness. He couldn't help but smile back at the young lady.

He looked at her small hand and accepted her handshake offer.

"Yes, I know who you are. Yes, we met again, Miss Chan. I'm Zacharias Lim." He answered.

"Does your dad know you are out this late? Aren't you still young to be in a place like this?" He asked to make a conversation as he felt awkward for an unknown reason. Or perhaps it was because Keira was just a year or two older than his little sister Rizie thus his protectiveness suddenly burst out.

Because of Zach's words, Keira pouted her lips and abruptly sat on the sofa in the private room. Zach was pulled to sit along with her since he was handcuffed to her.

"Of course my dad knows where I am. He's your superior… Don't you know how he is? Do you think I can go out without him knowing? Besides, for your knowledge, I'm already nineteen." Keira answered, a little bit irritated because she felt like Zach was treating her like a kid by asking that question and she hated that feeling.

'Can't he see that I'm a full-grown woman? Is he blind or something?' She protested inwardly before she grabbed a beer and drank it straight.

Zach looked at her in a daze… Even the way she drank was… Zach abruptly shook his head to brush off unnecessary thoughts.

"Your bid is a bit high, I think... but I want to thank you because I'm sure it will help a lot of people in need, especially those patients who can't afford the hospitalization, medicines, and laboratories." Zach murmured to change the ambiance.

Keira looked at Zach who was staring at one spot. "I'm sorry," she murmured because she knew Zach's dad died at an early stage of cancer because they were not capable at that time to support the medication fees and everything, besides, Zach was too young at that time.

With a confused face, Zach looked at her and asked, "Huh? Sorry for what?"


Keira bit her lip once more. She almost forgot that she was not supposed to make it obvious that she knew everything about him.

"Uhm, you sounded lonely when you talked about cancer patients, so I thought it's a big deal for you…" Keira said but then she paused.

Zach heard her sigh then suddenly she was back on being cheerful as she poured him a drink.

"Yeah, I bid high to help the patients…" said Keira and coughed a bit because she felt bad for lying like that but she couldn't and wouldn't dare to tell Zach that she bid high to get him for the whole night.

She cursed herself as she suddenly felt bad so she drank another glass. She poured another and would have drunk once more, but Zack snatched it from her hand as he drank it straight.

"What do you want to do for the night? I should comply with you at least to compensate and have a fair share for the money you have spent..." Zach murmured in his husky voice, which made Keira gulp as her heartbeat accelerated.

...…..

The woman in the hoodie stood not far away from the private room where Keira and Zach were.

"Madam, we have to go back. It's already late. You can't be out for too long or Master will find out." Her assistant whispered.

She glared at the room where Zach and the woman who won the bid entered.

Then, she smirked and let out a wry smile.

"And here I thought that he would never get over me no matter what happens." She murmured with a gloomy face.

She could feel that something was off with that lady to bid that high for a single night with Zach.

"It wasn't purely because of those cancer patients I'm sure," she muttered as irritation ate her. She wouldn't dare to bid pass 100,000 dollars because Master could find out about it.

Then, she turned her head to look at her assistant and hissed, "She was loaded for a young lady! Find everything about her, I want to know every single detail about her!"

For the first time in her life, she felt threatened and the confidence she was harboring for the past few years slightly crumpled at the sight of that lady.
