When Phelps walked in, the sight that greeted him was rather unsettling
He immediately put his medical skills to use, bandaging lan’s palm.
Throughout the process, lan was as still as a statue, neither moving nor speaking, as if the bloodseeping from his palm didn’t belong to him
Fitch watched from the sideline, a knot of discomfort forming in his chest.
He was never one to fuss over women like lan did. Women held a low priority in his life, and seeinglar’s state only reaffirmed his resolve to avoid becoming entangled in matters of the heart
To him, women were simply for enjoyment, to be replaced when the novelty wore off He’d simply marryinto another influential family when the time was
right
A marriage of equals, where both families could support each other
That was the best choice for a mature man
Falling in love with a woman who didn’t match his social status was akin to charity work
Fitch was adamant about not making such a foolish mistake.
lan’s hand was now neatly bandaged, and Phelps sighed in relief.
“Be careful next time If a shard had cut an artery, I would’ve had to save your life.”
The word save easily led one to think of Holden’s death

As the air conditioning was on, Tyler, fearing that lan might catch a cold, draped a blanket over him.
lan leaned back, his neck slightly tilted and his eyes misty from the alcohol.
After a while, he murmured. “Maja.”novelbin
The room fell into a hushed silence. This was the first thing lan had said all night, and it was Maja’sname.
Sighing, Tyler confirmed that lan was indeed drunk before gossiping with the other two
“Can you believe this? When Maja left she deliberately gave lan a box. Guess what was inside? Avenomous snake
Among them, only Phelps didn’t hold any prejudice against Maja, so he asked, “Could it be that shedidn’t know there was a snake inside?
Lately, he had heard rumors about Greenfield. It all seemed so unreal Werent those two getting alongjust fine not too long ago? How did it escalate to a blood feud so suddenly”
Tyler scoffed. If her fingerprints weren’t on the dagger that stabbed Holden, I might’ve thought thesame. But these two incidents tell everyone that ther

Among the three only Fitch knew about Maja and Eric, but he couldn’t reveal it, which was suffocatingfor him
Fitch used to be the best at keeping secrets but this one was too scandalous. It even made him absentminded when drinking and chatting
He thought Maja was the worst deceiving a persons feelings like that
She even acted so convincingly No wonder lanfell for it
