Chapter 165 Conrad, You Thief

Sloane stopped walking and turned to face Larry, her gaze sharp and cold. “Mr. Larry, I don’t care what your intentions are–I’m not interested in getting to know you. And please, save the pointless probing.”

Larry froze for a second, clearly not expecting Sloane to shut him down so bluntly. The smile on his face faltered slightly but quickly returned to its usual calm and composed state. “Ms. Rivers, you certainly don’t mince words. But wanting to be friends with you isn’t some empty pretense–I genuinely mean it.”

Sloane gave a cold laugh, her voice openly distant. “Mr. Larry, keep your genuine intentions for someone else. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”

With that, she didn’t give Larry a chance to respond. She turned and walked off briskly.

Larry remained where he was, watching her disappear into the distance. A flicker of something complicated crossed his eyes.

He murmured under his breath, “Sloane, do you really hate me that much? Or is it because of Lucas?”
