Chapter 5

Sylvie was drunk, but she knew there was no way she could imagine her asshole of a husband standing in front of her. Although, it didn't change the fact that it was very very rare. "Kage?" She squinted her eyes, belching afterwards.

Kage's countenance was grim and forbidding. His gaze lasted longer on Westley before moving to Sylvie

He went closer.

"Do you have any idea how wrong it is to drink with strangers? Your drink could get spiked and you might end up losing your valuables," he said in an offensive tone to Sylvie, but Westley chuckled. "Hello, Mr. Hawkins, my name is...

"I don't care," Kage cut him off. He turned to Sylvie, grabbing her bag

"In that case, you do know me, Westley smiled. "Then, you must know I'm not capable of pickpocketing like you accused."

"Yeah, and I wish I could do more than that," he brusqued.

The backdoor was opened for him. He shoved Sylvie in before joining her. With his driver and a guard in the front seat, they took off.

Kage regarded Sylvie with a certain tightness in his chest. He couldn't understand why he'd been forced to go the bar after seeing those pictures. A part of him hated himself for it, but a part was glad he'd been able to pull her way from that nutjob.

but he's never had a bad experience to make Kage dislike him. Yet, seeing him with Sylvie had made him angry. "Hey, you," Sylvie adjusted in her seat. The dimness of the car made it difficult to see
