"No way, that's impossible!" Eric Vaughn's heart raced as he scrambled to explain. "Sera, think harder! I'm Eric… Eric Vaughn! A few days ago, you sprained your ankle, and I healed it with my acupuncture. You can't have forgotten that!"
What a desperate, clingy outburst.
"He touched your foot?" Alex asked with a playful smile, his eyes glinting with amusement as he looked at her.
Sera shook her head. "No, I've never even met him."
But that harmless lie left Eric Vaughn totally lost, questioning his entire existence. 'How could this be? Did I get it wrong? No, no way, that's impossible!' But why would Sera say something so hurtful like "I don't know you"?
Wait a second…
'It had to be this jerk. He must've forced her. With this guy around, Sera couldn't tell the truth. That's it—it had to be him!'
