Chapter 861 - 198.5 - Desire
Trevor swallowed hard, forcing himself to regain control of his breathing. The weight pressing down on him wasn't something he could see, wasn't something tangible, yet it suffocated him all the same.
This wasn't supposed to happen.
He had planned everything. He had calculated the right words, the right setting, the right pace. Maya should have hesitated, should have doubted, should have let his words linger in her mind like an uncomfortable truth.
But this?
This was not hesitation.
This was absolute rejection.
And Trevor didn't know how to handle it.
"I—I was just trying to warn you," he finally managed, his voice unsteady, trying to grasp at something, anything to regain control of the conversation. "I thought you deserved to know. That's all."
Maya's expression didn't change.
She just stared at him, her crimson eyes gleaming in the dim light of the restaurant.
And then, she tilted her head slightly, the movement eerily slow.
"Why?"
Trevor blinked. "What?"
"Why do you think you're in a position to give me advice?"
What do you think?
