Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 33 Deliberate Harassment

Erin noticed Sean with a husky on a leash 30 feet away from her. She continued walking ahead, pretending she didn’t see him.

When she was close to him. Sean suddenly blocked her way. Even the husky joined in.

“Move!” At that moment, Erin was like a provoked panther on edge. Her eyes were filled with rage.

Sean, who was in a casual outfit, said condescendingly, “From what I can see, the coat on you definitely isn’t Chandler’s. So, whose is it?”

Erin huffed. “Why should I tell you?”

Sean raised his eyebrow and snickered, saying. “Of course, you’re obliged to tell me. As Chandler’s best friend, if his woman is having an affair behind his back, I’ll have to let him know about it.”

At the thought of Chandler’s devilishly handsome face, Erin was a little afraid. She was worried that Sean would twist the facts, so she explained grimly, “It’s not what you think. I didn’t betray him.”

“I can’t accept such a sketchy explanation. You still haven’t told me the real reason.” Sean’s eyes gleamed with interest, not intending to let her go that easily.

Erin was so furious she shut her eyes. She tried hard to collect her emotions before opening them. She took two steps forward and was about to walk past Sean when his dog barked at her fiercely. She was so frightened she hugged her arms and stood there tensely.

Sean smiled smugly and teased, “See, even my dog doesn’t agree with your excuse. He has quite a temper. If you infuriate him, he might bite, then you’ll have to head to the hospital to get your shots! After all, the medical fee won’t be too expensive. I won’t mind paying for it a couple of times.”

Erin glared at him resentfully. “What else do you want me to say? I’ve already said it’s not what you think it is!”

Sean said seriously, “Why don’t you follow me home? You look too much of a mess to hail a cab this way. I have some ladies‘ clothes I can let you wear. You think about how you want to explain this whole thing to me right now. If you explain it well, I won’t tell Chandler about what I saw tonight. If you give me a terrible explanation, you can wait for him to come after you. If you want to leave now, it’s fine

too, but don’t blame me for telling him what I saw-”

“You!” Erin was infuriated. Everyone was trying to blackmail her! She wanted to kill those three men terribly!
