Chapter 95: Will You Give Me Another Chance?
Austin took the roses and looked like he was about to throw them on the ground, but the girl took them away. A few seconds later, they finally hugged each other.
Clint didn’t know what to think.
When the two stopped hugging, Clint got out of the car and walked towards them.
Seeing him, Austin felt a little surprised and smiled embarrassedly. “Clint, you’re here.”
“Who is she?” Clint asked, frowning.
“She’s my girlfriend,” Austin replied happily.
Clint had wanted to ask him about his relationship with Selene, but he knew it wasn’t the right time. “Congratulations.” He said, smiling.
“Thank you. If you still love Selene, don’t give up! She’s hiding her true feelings.”
“Okay. Thanks for the advice.”
“Go easy on her. She’s been hurt.”
“I will.” Clint smiled.

When Selene arrived at the restaurant, Mike was already sitting down at their table, playing on his phone.
She walked into the restaurant with her cheeks burning red with embarrassment, but Mike’s nonchalant behavior soon set her at ease, and she calmed down.
Selene thought that he had probably experienced this situation many times, so neither of them should care about it too much.
When he saw Selene, he put down the phone and smiled. “I woke up at noon today. I don’t remember much from last night. Sorry for not sending you home. I was too drunk.”
Hearing his words, Selene raised her eyebrow in confusion as she saw him in the hotel room bathroom that morning when she left. So then, how had he been asleep until noon?
But she didn’t ask him about details, as she wanted to avoid embarrassment.
“I went home early,” Selene answered with a smile.
“You were too drunk last night,” Mike said, rubbing his head. ”How do you feel now?”
“I’m okay. I had a long nap.”
“Okay. And please don’t forget about what I told you last night.” Mike nodded his head.
“What do you mean?”
“That we should date.”
“Mike. We’re adults, and we should take responsibility for what we did last night.”
“So, you won’t consider it?”
“No, I mean that it’s no big deal that we had a one-night stand.”
“Wait. Wait…” Mike interrupted her.” What do you mean by ‘one-night stand’? Did we have sex?”
“You were probably too drunk to remember it. Just forget what I said.”
“Selene, maybe you’re misremembering things. My memory from last night is still hazy, but I’m sure as hell that I didn’t sleep with anyone.”
Judging by his sincere expression, Selene could tell that Mike was telling the truth. She suddenly felt dread.
So, the man in the bathroom wasn’t Mike, and the man who made love to her hadn’t been Mike, either.
Did she really have sex with a stranger?
She raised her head and tried to keep calm. “So you didn’t wake up until noon?”
“Yes. I’m usually knocked out for a long time after a night of drinking.” Then, seeing Selene’s slightly fearful and panicked expression, he blinked. “What’s wrong?”
Selene shook her head. “I don’t feel well. I think I’ll head home.”
“Let me call you a taxi.”
Selene took her handbag and hurriedly walked away.
Mike was worried and ran after her until he caught up with her. “Selene. What on earth happened last night?”
Selene was suddenly pulled into someone else’s arms.
Selene lifted her head and saw Clint, who had a very serious expression on his face.
“Mr. Denovan. Why are you here?” Mike asked with surprise.
“I’m here for Selene. We’ll leave now.” Clint coldly said.
Selene was pulled by Clint a few more paces until they got to his car. Clint pushed her inside.
“What are you doing? Let me go!” She shouted as Clint put her seatbelt on.
He then quickly turned the car on and started driving.
Selene frowned. “What are you trying to do?”
“Did you go to the Sheraton Hotel with Mike?”
Selene was suddenly angry at his audacity. She sneered at him. “And what if I did?”
“Why are you so careless?” Clint glared at her.
“You know what I’m like.” She said sarcastically. ”Our relationship also started from a one-night stand.”
Clint kept silent and gave her a cold smile. “Do you still think that you had sex with Mike last night?”
Selene’s face went pale. She just remembered that she had slept with a stranger the previous night.
But suddenly, she realized something. She turned to Clint with an accusatory glare. “It was you!”
Clint did not deny it and drove faster.
“Stop!” His silence confirmed Selene’s assumption, but she wanted out of the car.
Clint didn’t stop and just continued driving.
They soon arrived at the apartment where they had lived together back when they had been married.
Clint got out of the car and opened her door. She tried to push him away angrily, but he ignored it and picked her up, putting her over his shoulder. He carried her into the apartment.
Selene struggled but to no avail.
When Clint opened the door, he put her down.
Selene looked around and saw that everything was the same as what it had been when she left. Mixed feelings poured into her mind.
She looked at Clint. “Why did you bring me here?”
“If it weren’t me last night, you would have had sex with him, right?”
“Yes. I didn’t even know it was you.” Selene nodded.
Clint was very angry and bit down. “What’s wrong with you?”
“It’s none of your business.”
Clint snorted. “So you don’t remember that I made love to you last night, right?” then he leaned forward to hug Selene and kissed her ear and neck, “Let me help you find the memory.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Selene wanted to push him away, but he was too strong.
“You came back especially to do this to me?” Selene shouted angrily.
“Of course! I dropped off my parents in Australia and came straight back only to have sex with you. Okay?” He said it with anger and sarcasm.
“But I don’t want it!” Selene retorted, knowing what he intended to do.
Clint bit her lip slightly. He saw the discomfort on her face and laughed.
