After She She Stopped Loving Him

Chapter 101

Chapter 101

Yolanda kept her head bowed, feeling the weight on her shoulders like a sword about to drop. ‘I just hope I don’t mess up, she thought nervously.

After ten long minutes, Samuel finally spoke. “Ian, I’ve been searching for you for ages.”

“Mr. Grant, you must be joking,” Ian responded calmly.

Ian’s reply was crisp and confident; he showed no sign of backing down in front of Samuel.

It was as if the two of them stood on perfectly equal ground.

Yolanda kept her head down, but she was all ears, catching every word.

Samuel set his cup down and shot Ian a look. “So, you wanna be a star now? Chasing fame, huh?”

Ian grinned mischievously and leaned against Yolanda’s shoulder. “Honestly, I’d rather be her secret lover. Is that allowed?”

Yolanda stiffened all over, almost tempted to drop to her knees before Samuel in sheer embarrassment.

Samuel let out a soft “hmm,” as if he didn’t know how to respond.

After another half–minute of silence, Samuel finally said, “You won a ton of cash from my gambling house back then. Never thought your real name was lan.”

“Spent it all ages ago,” lan answered with a carefree shrug.

Samuel leaned back, giving a thoughtful hum. “Want to have this chat upstairs?”

“Sure,” Ian replied, getting up and shooting a look at Yolanda, who was still keeping her head down.

Ian got to his feet and glanced over at Yolanda, who remained silent with her head bowed.

He crouched down next to her and said, “Ms. Grant, just sit tight. I’ll be back down in half an hour.”

Yolanda’s mind was in total chaos; she couldn’t even bring herself to look at Samuel. All she could do was give a dazed nod, feeling lost and anxious.

In the study, Samuel idly turned the ring on his thumb, his presence radiating a calm maturity that made lan’s wild streak stand out even more.

Ian was like a wolf who’d grown up in the untamed wilds–he desperately tried to hide the feral instincts beneath the surface, but the little things always betrayed him.

Neither of them said a word, the silence stretching out like a tug–of–war that neither side wanted to lose.
