She felt a wave of dizziness as she was shoved to the front railings.
With a hand on her waist and another on the railing, the man trapped her right before him.
"I'll give you a chance to retract your statement!"
He lowered his gaze on her and coldly demanded, "Retract that statement now!"
"Retract?" Her face paled. With her lips curling downward, she retorted, "All right. Which statement do you want me to retract?"
"That one about you refusing to like me anymore."
The corners of her mouth plummeted further at that. She averted her gaze from him and schooled her face into an impassive and cold look.
She remained mum for a long time.
Her silence frustrated him endlessly. As his eyes filled with hidden tears, his hand clasping her shoulder inadvertently tightened.
"Say it!"
Her vision was never once on him. She tried to speak a few times, but her throat was too dry.
"Say it!"
He had lost some of his patience.
