2/2 Chapter 29 Sarah bit her lip , about to politely decline , when she saw Mia waving enthusiastically at someone in the distance . " Zac ! " Sarah looked up to see Zachary stepping out of his car . His tailored suit gave his usual understated presence an extra edge , though his eyes remained mysteriously enchanting and unreadable . Sarah felt a slight shiver as she walked toward him under that intense gaze . " Mr. Reynolds , what a coincidence , " she greeted . Zachary looked at her , his lips curving into a slight smile . " Not a coincidence . " Meanwhile … Meanwhile , Lucy stormed out of the administrative office , clutching her disciplinary notice and furiously scrolling through the appreciation posts about Sarah . Her anger boiled over . So Sarah really was that legendary senior student ! And she'd never mentioned it to any of them ! The fact that Sarah had hidden such a huge secret from the Chancer family all these years only convinced Lucy that it had been deliberate . Ever since divorcing James , that woman had been against their family at every turn - keeping their property , and now getting Lucy in trouble . She was nothing like the compliant person she'd pretended to be ! Unacceptable ! She had to tell James what Sarah had done ! Fuming , she stormed out of the building . But then , in the distance , she spotted Sarah standing with a man . Lucy's eyes widened , fury sparking . * That bitch already found someone else ? * They weret too far for her to clearly see the man's face , but she could make out his well - built figure . Something about him seemed vaguely familiar , though she couldn't place it . Without another thought , Lucy whipped out her phone and took several photos , smiling smugly as she put it away . This would teach Sarah a lesson . She'd show these to her brother , accuse Sarah of cheating during their marriage , and then watch her life fall apart . Sarah wasn't keen on getting too close to Zachary and had been thinking of an excuse to slip away when Mia wrapped herself around her arm with a pleading look . " Sarah , you promised we'd have dinner together - you can't leave me hanging ! " 1/2 +15 Bonus With Mia holding her tightly , her big eyes full of sincerity , Sarah found herself nodding , despite her reservations . " Alright . " She looked up , meeting Zachary's gaze , which held a hint of amusement . Her heart skipped a beat , feeling as if she'd just fallen into some kind of trap set by these two siblings . " Let's go , " he said . A black Cayenne rolled up beside them , and the driver unlocked the doors . Before Sarah could react , Mia had already darted into the front passenger seat , rolling down the window to poke her head out with a grin . " Sarah , I get carsick . I'll sit up front , so you sit in the back with my brother ! " " After you , Miss Sanders . " Zachary had already opened the rear door for her , raising an eyebrow with a polite yet teasing smile . " Ladies first . " With no other option , Sarah climbed into the car , settling in the back seat . The Cayenne's back seat was spacious , but with Zachary's tall frame beside her , the space felt a bit close . As the door closed , his subtle scent filled the air , unexpectedly pleasant and calming .
