lan stayed silent, creating a chilly atmosphere.
Ryan felt a bit uneasy but tried to comfort him anyway by saying, “Maybe Penny just likes an averageguy like her husband. You’re too top–notch. She might feel the pressure when she’s with you. Don’t feeldown, buddy.”
“Where did you get the idea that I’m upset?”
lan’s face remained expressionless, a picture of stubbornness, “I’m not interested in her.“”
He got up and headed out, his tone becoming even colder as if he had a sudden thought.
“And she’s divorced. That guy is just her ex–husband at most. I bet she dumped him. He’s just a pitifulman.”
lan walked straight to his car. The thought of rushing to the cinema because of her message tonightmade him feel a bit ridiculous.

The anger within him almost burned in his chest. He got in the car and floored the gas pedal withouthesitation.
Upon reaching the hotel, Tyler called with the news that the box office had already hit 300 million.
“lan, congrats to you and Penny. Your investment can at least quintuple.”
Hearing Penny’s name made lan’s nerves jangle.
He had no recollection of this movie, so he just made à noncommittal response.
Tyler was all about the entertainment news. He’d read out loud any hot news for lan as soon as hefound it.
“Shawn Walsh was spotted by paparazzi tonight. He was supposedly with a woman watching a movie.The face is blurry, but it looks like Penny to me.”
He continued to browse the hot news. With Shawn being so popular now and the movie running intheaters, the news was totally on fire.
Within an hour, this news made it to the top of the hot news list.
He chuckled a bit.
“This isn’t bad, free publicity for the movie. If the box office hits 400 million, your investment with Pennycould increase tenfold, considering all the subsequent revenue.”
But he didn’t hear any response from lan after he rambled on for a while, so he called out his name inconfusion, “lan?”
lan looked out of the window, finally he couldn’t hold back anymore and asked, “Did I have a badrelationship with her before?”
This “her” was, of course, referring to Maja.
“I’m not quite sure, but you always said that you didn’t like her.”
“Did she get divorced because of me?”
“I really don’t know. We all thought you were just messing around with her. You said it yourself; youhadn’t had enough fun with her yet.”
Hearing his good friend say that made him feel a bit better. Maybe his head injury and memoryconfusion were the reasons why his mood was affected by Penny.
“I got it.”
Tyler wanted to say something else but found that the call had already ended.
lan sat down to check his email and saw an email from Funfly Darcy.
He generally didn’t read emails from personal accounts. Only those from The Raymond Corporation’stop executives would catch his attention.
He opened the email, in which Funfly first expressed her affection for Shawn, then mentioned Shawnand Penny’s relationship, and finally asked him if he would handle Penny’s affairs.
lan’s existence made Funfly dare not to take any action against Penny.
She had already found Shawn, but because of a call from lan, she had to let Shawn go.
Now seeing the trending topic, she couldn’t hold back anymore.
The two of them went to watch a movie together. If lan cared about Penny, could he accept othersbetraying him like that?
[I had nothing to do with her.],
After replying to that email, he got busy with his work.
Upon receiving that email, Funfly’s eyes sparkled.
Without lan, did she really need to worry about a designer?
She immediately summoned her people, “Get Penny over here!”
She had put up with this for too long.novelbin
Now that lan finally didn’t care about that woman, she was going to give that woman a lesson that shewould remember!
