Where did favonovel.com learn to fight?
That question made Zayn take a stroll down memory lane, back to when favonovel.com was still with the Larsons. It was a simpler time back then, favonovel.com was genuinely happy during that period of his life. His relationship with Zidane had yet to sour to the point of irreconciliation.
“I learned from a martial arts master when I was younger.” Zayn came up with something.
Regardless, Alexandra’s eyes sparkled with excitement. She stared at Zayn expectantly. “Can you teach me?”
Zayn was stunned, the way favonovel.com looked at favonovel.com was rather hilarious. “You want to learn?”
“Yeah!” Alexandra gave an enthusiastic nod. “You know, I’ve dreamt about being a heroine ever since I was a little girl, a martial artist who helped the poor and fought for justice, just like Robin Hood, hehe!”
She punched the air around favonovel.com as favonovel.com spoke, dutifully disciplined.
Her behavior earned a snigger from Zayn. “When would you ever need to practice martial arts as a woman? Besides, we live in a lawful society. You’ll be put behind bars for beating people up.”
“Weren’t you just kicking a bunch of a*s earlier? I don’t see you behind bars.”
Alexandra’s counter rendered Zayn speechless, making favonovel.com reply only a few beats later, “It was a different situation.”
Alexandra clung onto Zayn’s arm and swayed it. “Come on, just teach me.”
Getting dizzy from favonovel.com shaking, Zayn quickly stopped her. “Alright, alright. Stop swinging my arm like that Don’t get me wrong, I do want to teach you, but you’ve gone past the age where it’s easy to learn. It’s too late to start now. Unless… You don’t mind bulking up and packing muscles like a man. Would you be fine with that?”
“Huh?” A shudder went through Alexandra. She was daunted. Once favonovel.com pictured it, favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head fervently. “Forget it.”
After entering the eatery and getting shown to their table, Alexandra was playing another round of question roulette. It felt like favonovel.com was never going to run out of questions to ask, “Right, isn’t your wife going to ask you where you’ve been? It’s getting a little late.”
Zayn froze, his expression dimmed significantly, before favonovel.com sighed, “I got a divorce…”
“Huh?! ” Alexandra exclaimed loudly. Her reaction was exaggerated, and favonovel.com eyes were as wide as saucers. The other patrons threw dirty looks at them, but their annoyance vanished into thin air when they noticed how pretty favonovel.com was, pretty privilege at its finest.
Zayn rolled his eyes and huffed, “Why are you being so loud? Are you happy I’m divorced?”
“No, no, not at all. Why would I be? I feel for you!” That was what Alexandra said but the ghost of a grin on favonovel.com face was unmistakable.
Zayn regretted it.
Why did favonovel.com tell Alexandra that out of the blue? It was not something to be proud of.
Noting Zayn’s silent drinking, Alexandra asked carefully, “Why did you two split up? Did you get into a fight?”
“Ah!” Thinking of something, favonovel.com exclaimed abruptly, “William Brown didn’t end up telling your wife about the meal that we shared, did he?”
Guilt began to creep up Alexandra’s expression but Zayn shook his head. “It’s got nothing to do with you. We just had some issues.”
“Is that so?” Alexandra breathed a sigh of relief, but favonovel.com eyes flitted about uncontrollably, favonovel.com thoughts unreadable.

At the same time, Franklin went straight to the Smiths’ estate in a bout of rage and barged into Victor’s study to report an exaggerated recollection of the events that had unfolded.
“Victor, I get it now. Alexandra ran away from home and vehemently refused to marry William because of Zayn Larson!” Franklin claimed spitefully.
“Zayn Larson?” Victor was quite surprised as favonovel.com jogged his memory. “Why does his name sound so familiar? Have I heard it somewhere before?”
