Chapter 23

• ~DANTE’S POV~
• I entered the grand hotel and found Candice waiting for me in one of the corners. It’s more as though she’s embarrassed to be seen with me. To be honest, baby girl, I’m game. I know about your Jackie Chan boyfriend. Playing with her would be a lot of fun. It’s obvious that she adores Jackie Chan, but how did she manage to trick me? I’ve now lost Lola. It was because of this woman that I lost her. I opted to stand in the reception area in order for her to see me and approach me. However, Candice remained immobile. I know what she is doing. She wants me to reserve a room and meet her at the elevator. Why wasn’t I able to see through these activities previously? She has always acted in this manner toward me. She is adamant about not being seen with me in public, yet claims to love me. If that is the case, then I will make sure that your martial arts boyfriend sees you with me. That’s a promise, and I’ll keep it. I continued to pretend I didn’t see her and started to glance around, and walked out of the hotel. I know she’ll come after me, but I don’t have time for her. I noticed her sprinting for the entrance, but I asked Lev to continue driving. It may take me an eternity to locate Lola, but I will never love another person as much as I have loved her. What am I trying to convey? It has always been her. Lola was and still is my first love, but I ignored my feelings for her and ended up losing her. Lola, my Lola. I know you ran away from me, but I’ll find you, Bunny! I promise. That is a promise. I glimpsed Lev’s reflection in the mirror as he drove. I’m sure he had something to say, but I’m not sure what.
• “Spill!” I roared while giving him a stern look through the mirror.
