There was a moment when lan felt like he didn’t know her anymore.

He stared into her eyes, not wanting to miss any tiny changes.
Yet, when she spoke, there was a calmness on her face.
A calmness that made it seem like she was stating a fact.
So, his impulsive decision to come here seemed rather foolish.
He looked at her calmly, but his insides were filled with a cold indifference that sent chills down one’s spine.
This coldness had even spread to Maja. She no longer looked at him but silently stared at her glass.
The insults from Selena, the indifference from Maureen, and the hatred from Connie.
She clearly realized that his surroundings were like a thorny abyss.
Any sane woman would know how to choose.
After all, did lan really like her? She couldn’t tell.

But that could just be a stress response.
She thought lan would be angry; even Tyler, who was standing not far away, was ready to mediate.
But lan just deeply looked at Maja and then said, “Fine, we won’t bother each other from now on.”
With that, he turned and left.
As he passed Tyler and Fitch, the coldness seemed to be seeping out of him.
Tyler hurried to catch up with lan while Fitch stood still.
He crossed his arms and glanced at Maja.
Was it over between them?
If so, could he hand this woman over to Mia Haskins?
After all, due to Maja’s previous threats, Mia had become somewhat timid.
If lan no longer protected this woman, could the Haskins family do as they pleased?
He raised an eyebrow and then followed lan..
When lan sat down in Tyler’s box, Tyler hurriedly handed him a drink.
“Don’t be mad, it’s just a woman.”
But the glass was crushed by lan, and his palm was bloody.
Tyler’s face turned pale. Anyone could see that lan was outraged.
So, he would feel hurt only after being humiliated.
And he even held his temper and didn’t blame Maja. This was rare.
Given lan’s way of dealing with enemies, if anyone upset him, he would strike back without mercy.
But now he just returned to his box and hurt himself.
Tyler didn’t know what to say for a moment.
After a while, he started badmouthing Maja.
“She’s just average–looking and doesn’t know how to please men. She’s so fickle, she and Beck are a perfect
match.”
lan lowered his eyelids and casually wiped the blood on his palm with a tissue. When he heard they were a good
match, he sneered.
“How are they a match?”

Tyler was worried that he had made a big deal out of it. If Holden knew, it would be even harder to resolve.
“lan, you saw her attitude, it’s like a cliff that doesn’t respond. Even if you risk jumping off, she won’t react. And to
be honest, I still don’t know what Penny really wants.
If she was with lan for the money, then during the time with him, she should have converted it into tangible benefits
as much as possible.
But Penny was really hard to understand.
In Tyler’s view, it was lan who was more eager.
lan threw the tissue into the nearby trash can, and he also didn’t know what Penny wanted.
He took out the paper again and stared at it. He didn’t even understand why he cared so much about these words.
The thought of Maja in the box not far away with Beck made his fingers stiff.
But it’s okay, she’s just a woman.
It’s just a transaction; there’s no need to care too much.
He, lan, couldn’t possibly feel desperate over a woman, especially a fickle one.
Connie was stuck in a recurring nightmare in the hospital.
