Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 712

When Jack's hand was suddenly grabbed, it caught him off guard.

The usual cool detachment he was known for seemed to vanish in an instant.

Sarah held his mouth shut tightly, giving him a cold stare. "Mr. Clarkson, I know you're powerful, but if you harass me again, I'll make you pay, even at the cost of my own life. I'm not afraid of fighting back, even if I have nothing to lose." This was not what Jack had intended.

Hearing her confess her feelings for someone else ignited a fire within him that he struggled to contain.

And in a moment of uncontrolled passion, all he wanted was to silence her infuriating words with his actions.

But as he cooled down, he remembered the hurtful things he had said to her before.

"I guess I deserved that," he said, removing her hand from his mouth. "Aren't you done being angry yet?"

"How do you expect me to 'be done'?" she responded emotionlessly.

"Did you even listen to what I said?" Jack fell silent.

"I just want you to let go of me now, so we can go our separate ways," Sarah said, her voice cold.

Jack opened his mouth to argue but was cut off by her next words.
