Chapter 501
People around them watched like they were enjoying a show. Swere even placing bets on how long it would
take the drunk to get the woman.
Right then, Scarlett burst forward. "What the hell are you doing? Lay another hand on her, and I'm calling the
cops!"
The man scoffed. "Who comes to a bar and doesn't look for a fling? | was just trying to talk to her-what's the big
deal?"
"I said no, and that means no. Now get lost!" Scarlett shot him a glare, sharp as a knife.
"Tech. If you're not out to play, don't cto a bar," the man muttered as he stomped off.
Scarlett stepped in front of Sarah protectively. "Sasa, weren't you drinking at the bar just now? Why'd you
suddenly cover here?"
She glanced around suspiciously, but nothing seemed out of place.
Sarah was still in a daze. "I was going to the restroom."
Her mood was already in the gutter. Then, she saw Zachary leaving the bar, supporting Vivian.
That moment hit like a wave of ice, spreading cold through her entire chest.
The bar was drowning in deafening music. In the midst of it, she whispered, "Scarlett, does dancing really help

The air was thick with smoke, alcohol, and something dangerously intoxicating.
Scarlett figured Sarah had finally snapped out of it and followed her in.
The two of them moved to the beat, exuding a wild, mesmerizing energy.

By the tfatigue seeped into every inch of her body, she realized she had spent nearly an hour without
thinking about it.
At Ink Bar, James walked in, his expression dazed. He hadn't slept at all last night, his mind tangled up in
thoughts of Sarah.
He'd spent the entire night trying to figure out what she meant to him. For so long, Charlotte's nhad burned
through him like a wildfire. But now, amidst that endless red glow, a patch of green had sprouted-Sarah's name,
growing stronger, taking root.
It had started as just a tiny shoot, but it had grown, and grown, until now-he couldn't suppress it anymore. That
seedling had becsomething unstoppable, bursting with life.
He stepped off the quiet, empty streets and into the neon-lit chaos of the bar. The pounding bass tried to drown
out the ache in his chest.
Through the noise, he walked to the bar and ordered a cocktail.
His gaze drifted toward the dance floor-and then his breath caught.
Why was she here? Why was she dancing?
The sight of her hit him like a gut punch.
Every assumption he'd had about Sarah shattered in that instant.

Now, in front of him, she was someone else entirely.
"Sarah..." He murmured her nunder his breath.
He wanted to pull her out of there.
But he had no right to.

"Yeah." Sarah was exhausted.
"I'm gonna sit down for a bit." She stepped out of the vibrant dance floor.
