"Excuse me for a minute, I have to use the restroom." I flashed the pretty guy a smile and rose to my feet, walking with calm but slightly hastened steps towards the women's room. But I swiftly turned towards the staff room at the back, then took another turn to the storage area with a separate exit the staff used, most probably for restocking inventory.
I tried to leave as swiftly as possible, but Zane soon burst into the street, so I took another corner that led to the main road. Luckily, I was able to slip into a taxi before he caught up with me.
"What shitty luck!" I muttered under my breath as I settled in the seat, glancing back to see a disgruntled Zane frantically scouring the street, turning at every corner as if eager to catch me.
"Why on earth was Zane even there?" I grumbled, biting down on my nails.
