Chapter 188 You Just Like Chloe

Zara, already terrified, desperately searched her mind for any words she could think of. "Mr. Martin, I was wrong to deceive you with Chloe, making you think I was your dream girl. In reality, I don't know much about motorcycles. I can barely ride one, and that's about it. Mr. Martin, please, I promise I won't deceive you again. Please, spare me."

Zara's survival instincts were strong. Terrified and practically shaking, she apologized with genuine sincerity, her voice trembling with clear desperation and pleading. Tears glistened in her eyes, ready to spill at any moment, and her hands twisted nervously together, utterly at a loss.

Seeing her in such a state, Liam felt a sudden jolt in his heart. The anger that had driven him to want to punish Zara completely began to waver, like a stone dropped into a tranquil lake, creating ripples of emotion. His feelings gradually shifted from anger to a complex mixture of pity and guilt.

However, Liam remembered his vow to punish Zara. After a moment's hesitation, he decided to channel his emotions differently. Seeing the fear on Zara's face, he suddenly moved closer. Before she could react, he captured her trembling lips in a kiss.

Zara was utterly stunned. Her mind went completely blank, and her entire body froze, clueless on how to respond to this unexpected kiss. Her heart pounded wildly, as if it would burst out of her chest, and she was instantly thrown into chaos.

She stared wide-eyed, her mind blank, as Liam's lips moved over hers. "Mr. Martin, what are you..."

Zara's already unsettled heart became even more chaotic. She mumbled.

Liam reached out, grabbed her waist, and gently said, "Relax, you need to put your heart into a kiss."

With that, he couldn't help but pull Zara into his arms and kiss her deeply. Liam's kiss was both commanding and gentle. His hands softly caressed her cheeks as he deepened the kiss. Zara, after her initial panic, gradually relaxed her stiffened body, her arms falling limply to her sides, leaving Liam free to dominate her lips.

This sudden tenderness and intimacy left Zara feeling both ashamed and confused. Unconsciously, she closed her eyes, as if to escape from it all. Yet, deep within her, a strange feeling started to bloom...
