Chapter 1024
He picked up the menu and casually ordered something, and yet lan was still making remarks.
“Rumor has it that Mr. Sanders is still single. This place should have special meals for bachelors, right? If not, I’ll ask
their chef to prepare one later.”
Beck slammed the menu he was holding in his hand.
“lan, don’t cross the line!”
lan raised an eyebrow, about to say something even more annoying, when Maja beat him to it.
“Mr. Sanders, don’t mind him. The main reason for meeting you today is to discuss our previous deal. I apologize
for breaking our agreement, so I want to compensate you.”
Beck’s gaze was fixed on lan.
lan raised an eyebrow and leaned back in his chair.
“Maja, didn’t we agree that I’d compensate him?”
Maja discreetly pinched his thigh, causing lan to cry out in pain nearly.

Maja coughed lightly, then reached out her soft hand and gently patted the place she had pinched..
He was immediately appeased.
Beck was no fool he could see their movements under the table.
He took a deep breath.
“No need for compensation. It’s just three Hollywood opportunities. If Maja likes them, I’ll give them to her.”
lan’s face cooled at these words, his gaze narrowing.
Beck felt he had regained the upper hand and quickly softened his voice to Maja. “Consider it a gift between
friends. Since you’re with him, I can’t exactly force you apart.”
“Mr. Sanders, this gift is too valuable.”
Beck was about to say she’s worthy of it.and they got along well when he heard lan say something.
*Just accept it. The gifts he gave to his twenty–odd exes were much more expensive.”
Beck was so angry that he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He endured for a long time before he didn’t throw the food brought by the waiter in lan’s face.
He really couldn’t understand it. How could such an excellent girl like Maja fall for someone like this?
Unreasonable!
Arrogant!
Petty!
Maja was also somewhat helpless, so she could only give Beck an awkward smile.
Beck clenched his teeth. He couldn’t eat anything now. Just seeing lan’s face made him feel full..
Of course, it was full of anger!
He took a deep breath. The waiter had already brought the couple’s meal, but his own food hadn’t arrived yet.
He was so upset that he felt like he hadn’t picked a good day to go out.
lan picked up the knife and fork, cut the steak into several pieces for Maja, and asked her in a low voice.
“If you don’t like this, we can switch.”
His tone was light but full of seriousness.
The overhead light seemed like a cover, enveloping the two of them as if isolating them from everyone else.
Looking at the two of them, Beck frowned slightly. There was a strange feeling that these two actually matched

But the next second, lan looked up at him.
“Your single meal hasn’t arrived yet. Seems like even the waiter finds you a nuisance.”
Damn it!!
Beck immediately stood up, holding back for a long time before he didn’t throw the coffee next to him at lan.
Maja quickly covered lan’s mouth and looked at Beck.
“Mr. Sanders, I’m sorry. I will invite you to dinner another day to apologize.”
Hearing Maja wanted to invite Beck alone, lan immediately became unhappy, removed her hand, and was about to
say something, but was glared at by her and instantly shut up, pouting.
Now, the one feeling triumphant was Beck.
Beck took a deep breath, feeling instantly refreshed.
“That works, but I have high requirements for restaurants. I need a very quiet private room.” A man and a woman
in a private room.
lan, being the jealous type, could imagine many scenarios. His face immediately darkened.
With a smile, Beck continued, “I’ll wait for your call then; just be sure not to bring certain annoying things along.”
