Sawyer was exceptionally good at reading other people. He knew everything—from their needs and desires to their fears and phobias.

And he would use the knowledge to manipulate and make people do what he wanted without the slightest hesitation.

However, if she persists in mistreating me obstinately, I’ll have to be rough on her then.

There are many ways to have women by my side, and I’ve chosen the most difficult one to get her.

Feeling guilty and ashamed, he immediately went to the cafeteria to buy a meal and sprinted toward their usual meeting place.
