Chapter 48: Sapphire’s Act of Revenge

"Just consider it. You'll be surprised to find out you're not their child," I said, shaking my head before exiting the comfort room.

"I'm so good at this, right?" he asked, scanning my appearance. "The clothes I picked suit you perfectly, and they're exactly your size."

"You learned that from being a womanizer. Should I congratulate you?" I looked at myself in the mirror. "I hate the design. It's too complicated. So many strings."

"I just don't want your clothes falling off during exercise," he reasoned, making me roll my eyes.

He guided me through warm-ups, and afterward, we exercised on the treadmill again. He was running hard while I was just walking, but I was sweating more than him.

Not even ten minutes in, and I felt like I was going to pass out.

"How does it feel?" he asked with a smile as he continued running.

He was now wearing a white tank top and black shorts. He seemed used to exercising, given his physique.

I almost stumbled on the treadmill while staring at him.

"Hey, careful," he said, holding me on the waist while running. "You should only fall for me, not on that treadmill." Fuck, Sapphire. Focus.

"It feels terrible," I said as I turned off the treadmill.

I leaned on the wall, trying to catch my breath. Why did I even come here?

"Your body is already crying for you, so you don't need to cry with your eyes anymore."

He turned off his treadmill and grabbed a white towel. I thought it was for him, but he handed it to me.
