An Lla recalled the details from last night, heranger flared. It was Amber's fault for provoking nella fast. She hadn't done anything wrong by helping her friend Yes, Leonard defended Amber. If she backed down now, it would mean admitting that Amber's behavior was acceptable.

Thinking about the two months of hard work and the losses she had incurred made her heart ache, but in the grand scheme of things, it was not worth sacrificing herprinciples

Taking a deep breath, she clenched her teeth. "Fine. If you don't want to talk, we won't. My studio won't collapse without your order. Just you wait, Leonard. I'll get my revenge

With that, she slammed the door behind her. The moment she stepped outside the company, tears streamed down her face. All that money was gone after working day and night for two months!

As she cried, her hunger intensified, and she felt too weak to keep walking. She sat down on the steps, hugging her knees and imagining ways to take revenge on

Leonard rubbed his temples infestation. Lia, seizing the moment, grabbed his arm and wiped her tears on the expensive sleeve of his suit, cellshing the act of deliwnce

With a gloomy look, he extended his arm toward her. "Go ahead. Wape your tears. I'm not going to cancel the order, alright? I just couldn't understand why you invited me last night."

His mouth twitched. "Dominic said the same thing... But the thing is, Amber is Dominic's ex-girlfriend. I shouldn't have to defend her, right? I was just trying to protect you! I hadn't stepped in, you could've gotten hurt. Was I supposed to turn my back on you? How would I even talk to you if i was facing away? Who knew you could be so I wouldn't have intervened."

She was baffled. "Why would you be worned about me getting hurt? Are we that close? Can't you come up with a better excuse?
