Chapter 9

I bent over laughing.

"But weren't you the one who had evidence spread online that I was a plagiarist?"

"And didn't you personally tell the media that all my paintings were copied from others? Sakura, what are you and Zoran trying to pull here in front of me?"

Sakura bit her lower lip hard, drawing blood. Her eyes were bloodshot, unable to utter a single word in her own defense.

Zoran tried to support her.

She kicked Zoran square in the chest, shouting loudly.

"Get away! Don't touch me!"

Zoran fell to the ground, crying out in despair.

"Sakura, I'm the one you should love!"

"Have you forgotten what you said when we were together? You said if I had confessed earlier, you would have been with me! You're just used to being with Jaxon!"

Panic flashed in Sakura's eyes as she screamed forcefully.

"Shut up! I never said that!"

She then turned to plead with me.

"Jaxon, please, don't leave me. I know I was wrong."

"I'm begging you, you can't abandon me!"
