Chapter 158

“No, I am good,” Daran said coldly without hesitation.

A lot of the maids looked disappointed.

Why did he reject them? Were they not pretty enough?

Some of them even bent their back on purpose to show off their cleavages.

“Daran, you are hurting these poor girls‘ hearts.” Lance chuckled, “What is the matter? Are they not good enough for you? Because I know there are some prettier girls in the palace. Just say the word and I will have them delivered to you.”

Daran frowned.

“What is this obsession of yours to keep sending women to me?” He said impatiently. “I already told you. I don’t want them.”

Lance laughed, “Don’t get me wrong, brother. I just want to make sure you have everything that you need here. Come on, how long has it been since you last had a woman? Even that girl in the nightclub–you just danced with her and that was it. What is the matter?”

Janet’s heart skipped a beat hearing Lance say that.

Daran didn’t sleep with all those women?

But… But she thought that he was having crazy fun here.

Why did he turn down all those girls?

While she was thinking about that, Lance voiced out her question for her:

“Daran, is it because you are still in love with another woman?“–

The room lapsed into a deathly silence.

Everyone was looking at Daran, holding their breath, waiting for him to answer.

Even Harper had stopped fiddling with her earrings and stared at Daran instead. The furrow between Daran’s brows grew deeper.

He looked reluctant to answer.

Seeing his reaction, Lance chuckled, “Then let me make a wild guess here. The woman that you are still in love with…is it Janet?”

All eyes darted to Janet in unison.

Janet clenched her fists and felt her palms sweating.

“Where are you going with this?” Daran asked icily.
