Tariq Lane clenched his fists, telling himself that Cecelia Anderson was just an actress, and that what just happened was only an act.
She used to love him so much, and if he had shown any interest in her, she would have been grateful and immediately thrown herself into his arms.
Cecelia was just playing hard to get; it was clear that Tariq was the one she loved, and Wayne Adams was only a tool to get back at him.
With this mindset, Tariq felt even more justified in getting closer to Cecelia, ensuring she would never be able to escape him in this lifetime...
Cecelia had just entered the break room and taken off her coat when Wayne called again.
"What's wrong? Didn't I tell you to concentrate on driving?" she asked tenderly.
As Wayne treated her well, she wanted to reciprocate with all her heart - it seemed like the only way to repay his efforts.
Those who were good to her in this life were few and far between, and so she cherished them dearly.
