"Owen, back off. It's not comfortable with you clinging onto me like that!"

Cecilia tried to shake off his arm, but without success. She was worried about falling off the scooter, so she quickly grabbed the handlebars again.

Innocently, Owen said, "I'm just afraid I might fall off. It's safer to hold onto you."

Cecilia's face turned sour at his shamelessness, but she was helpless against him.

He was such a rascal.

If it wasn't for her mom stepping in, he might never have agreed to divorce her.

Luckily, the ride from the alley to the Yates family's place wasn't far, and they soon arrived at their gate.

Cecilia parked the scooter, and struggled to get his hands off her.

Hearing footsteps in the yard, Owen quickly let go of her.

He got off the scooter, smiling.

Although he hadn't gained anything, at least he got to hold her. He felt like he'd scored.

Cecilia glared at him, whispering, "Owen, just because I agreed to your pursuit doesn't mean I've accepted you. I'm not your girlfriend yet. You should respect me, not take advantage of me." She hadn't followed her mom's advice to change her number, to disappear for a while. Giving Owen a chance was also giving herself a chance, but it didn't actually mean she had accepted him.

With a serious face, Owen said, "Cecilia, I didn't take advantage of you, I was just worrying about my safety. How about this, if you feel you've been wronged, you can hold onto me. For as long as you want. I'll let you get the compensation you deserve."

Cecilia was exasperated.

"Cecilia, you're back."
