So, the ladies on the scene started giving each other the once— over, their eyes full of confusion...
For Maja they were green with envy.
After all, she had kissed lan, whose lips were undeniably a magnet.
After Maja apologized, the bottle on the scene started spinning again.
Due to her kiss with lan, the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Some folks who wanted to make fun didn’t dare to touch lan

“Mia Haskins, dont you think you've crossed the line? Even Samuel didn’t make a peep.” Only then did Mia Haskins snap back to reality but remained defiant.
“She's way too kiss—and-tell, she’s not even close to Samuel!” Back at Solstice College, Maja had been suspiciously close to Samuel. Now she wanted to kiss Samuel right in front of her. No way she'd let her have her way!
“This is Truth or Dare; if you're not game, don't join.” The words came from Samuel; only he had the guts to speak his mind.
Upon hearing this, Mia Haskins' eyes were filled with tears, and she trembled with rage.
She shot Maja a nasty look.
Maja played dumb, quietly waiting for the game to end.
An hour later, the game finally came to an end.
Maja got up to leave, but considering the eight million dollars she needed to compensate, she asked lan, “Mr. Raymond, what's your bank account number?” lan was holding a glass of wine, spinning it gently with his fingertips.
Maja had a few drinks during the game; she was a bit tipsy now but still remembered her debt.
lan was sober, he glanced at her.
Her cheeks were a bit flushed from the alcohol, but she wasn't very drunk; her eyes were still bright.
It reminded him of that night.
“Where did you get the money?” he asked.
“Borrowed,” she replied.

He was about to say no need to pay, but she added: “My husband lent it to me; he’s very generous.” She seemed to protect her husband a lot. She never badmouthed him, not on the phone, riot in private.

“Mr. Raymond, can you tell me your card number?” By that time, everyone else in the room had left, intoxicated.
Mia Haskins volunteered to take Samuel home, and Tyler went to pay the bill, leaving only the two of them in the box.
Maja followed lan, seeing that he seemed unwilling to talk. She
was a bit anxious.
“Mr. Raymond?” lan stopped, his tone somewhat cold.
“If you think it's too much money, donate it to charity.” Though a bit drunk, Maja realized he was pissed. Not knowing what she had done wrong, she changed the subject.
“Then I'll bring some soup for you later.” lan stiffened and couldn't help but look back at her.
She was already gorgeous, her tone just now had a hint of grievance that she didn't even realize.
lan lowered his head and saw her take a step forward; the distance between them instantly shortened.
He could even smell her scent, just like that night
