Chapter 10
Lucy's eyes lost focus. Even though it had been five years since she had felt his hot kiss, it still made the bad memories of the past resurface effortlessly.
His kiss was fierce and hurried, as if he was trying to confirm something.
Lucy's heart ached badly. She had once loved him so much, but he hadn't even bothered to spare her a glance.
After she had tried so hard to let him go and get far away from him, he had come to bother her again!
What gave him the rights to disrupt her life like this? She was done with him. She had already let him go, hadn't she?
Tired of it, Lucy bit him. She immediately heard him groan and tasted blood in her mouth. Arthur had no choice but to loosen his grip on her because of the pain.
Taking advantage of that chance, Lucy shoved him away. "You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not Lucy or whoever."
She walked backwards on her high heels while speaking.
Without turning back, Lucy started running toward the exit of the parking lot. She turned around once, but she saw Arthur standing still where he was.
However, the smile on his lips made her heart stop a little.
The look in his eyes made him look as if...he was torturing his prey. Lucy's eyes lost focus. Even though it had been five years since she had felt his hot kiss, it still made the bad memories of the past resurface effortlessly.
Lucy gritted her teeth and ran as fast as she could. Only when she reached the side of the road did she gulp for air. Her heart was pounding wildly.
'I escaped!' she cheered inwardly. However, she felt like crying.
She had gone to so much effort to hide from him and finally managed to live a peaceful life, so why did he have to appear in front of her again?
All of a sudden, a car's blinding headlights shone on her, and a Bentley slowly drove towards her. In the sun, the car's body reflected the light sharply, scaring Lucy. She hurriedly stepped
backwards, nearly being knocked to the ground.
The car window slid down slowly, exposing Arthur's mature and solemn face. His gaze was fixed on her.
Arthur hadn't expected her to pretend to not know him and look so convincing at it too. He had nearly believed it himself.
"Lucy, don't even think of running away."
Lucy wouldn't go with it. Just as she straightened up to run away again, she suddenly felt a sharp burst
of pain in her ankle.
"Ouch." She doubled over in pain and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Arthur frowned slightly. When his gaze fell on her swollen ankle, his expression froze.
However, before he could get close, Lucy's teorful voice stopped him in his trocks. "Arthur, get owoy from me!"
He stood there blonkly. "Why, ore you going to stop pretending you don't know me now?"
"..." Lucy didn't expect herself to shout his nome in her fit of onger, doubling her poin.
She couldn't ovoid him onywoy, so Lucy bent down to toke her high heels off. Her foir ond tender feet were reveoled, shining milky-white under the sun ond moking Arthur norrow his eyes.

"Get your honds off me. We're olreody divorced ond we hove nothing to do with eoch other."
She pleoded in o low voice. She only wonted to get os for owoy from him os possible.
However, before he could get close, Lucy's tearful voice stopped him in his tracks. "Arthur, get away from me!"
He stood there blankly. "Why, are you going to stop pretending you don't know me now?"
"..." Lucy didn't expect herself to shout his name in her fit of anger, doubling her pain.
She couldn't avoid him anyway, so Lucy bent down to take her high heels off. Her fair and tender feet were revealed, shining milky-white under the sun and making Arthur narrow his eyes.
Lucy had been wearing a pair of high stiletto heels, so she must have sprained her ankle while running earlier. Only then did the intense pain hit her.
Soon, he held her tiny foot in his large hands, and Lucy immediately gasped from the pain.
"You sprained it." Arthur frowned while kneading her foot. He twisted it with a crack, and Lucy nearly cried from the pain.
Lucy felt an intense burst of pain in her ankle as she looked at Arthur, whose eyelids were lowered.
"Get your hands off me. We're already divorced and we have nothing to do with each other."
She pleaded in a low voice. She only wanted to get as far away from him as possible.
