Holly bit her lip lightly. "So if I hadn't saved you, you wouldn't treat me well, would you?"
She hoped he would say, That's not true. But instead, she was met with a pair of indifferent, distant eyes.
The man before her simply stared, as if he were looking at a stranger.
Suddenly, Holly's heart trembled, and she regretted what she had just said. "I… I just want you to be good to me, not just because I saved you, but… for some other reasons too…"
She stammered in defense.
"Alright, don't overthink it," Garrett Vincent replied coolly. "It's getting late; you should get some rest."
As he spoke, he opened the car door and was about to get in when Holly suddenly called out from behind him, "Be careful on the road, Jarrett!"
The name Jarrett made Garrett freeze in place, memories flashing through his mind of that petite figure carrying him down the mountain years ago.
Back then, that girl kept talking to him, worried he might pass out from blood loss.
