Lyon Gardens? If I’m not mistaken, that’s a villa housing estate not far from here… Well, given how rich Fabian is, I bet he could afford tons of villas anyway!
Fabian let out a chuckle when he saw Hannah in deep thought. “What, are you thinking about how much you would owe me for the villa? How about we do three thousand a night?”
Hannah rolled her eyes at him. “Fine! Three thousand a night it is, then! You are worse than a loan shark!”
Fabian nodded. “Hmm… Looks like renting out property is quite a profitable business, after all!”
“I…” Hannah knew he was joking, but that didn’t make her any less annoyed by what he said.
“Do you think Lyna is a good person?” Fabian asked all of a sudden.
“Why do you ask? Remember, we made a deal that we wouldn’t get involved in each other’s private matters!” Hannah said angrily when she thought about how calculative he was moments ago.
“Oh? Since when? Why am I not aware of this?” Fabian sounded so surprised that it was as if such a conversation had never taken place.
“Huh? We both agreed on this back then! Why are you denying it now?”
“I don’t care! If I don’t remember it, it doesn’t exist!” Fabian blurted casually and ignored Hannah’s protest.
“I… You…” Hannah didn’t really know what to say in response until she recalled the contract they signed. “Hmph! I knew you’d play dumb! Good thing we signed a contract!”
“Oh? Is that so?” Fabian asked with an amused look on his face, causing Hannah’s confidence to waver a little.
What’s he saying? He was the one who proposed that we sign a contract back then! I seriously thought of him as being very protective of his money!
“Like I said, we do have a signed contract, so don’t you ever ask me anything about my private matters!” Hannah would never have dared talk to Fabian like that had she not been angered so much.
Fabian simply laughed it off and kept quiet as he thought to himself. Heh, I can’t believe this girl would try to threaten me with that contract! Very well, I’ll hide your copy of the contract tomorrow! Let’s see what you’ll do then!
Damn, I should’ve thought about the contract sooner! Fabian wouldn’t have been able to bully me that much if I did!
With that in mind, Hannah said gleefully, “That’s right, we should just mind our own business as stated in the contract! We…”
The smile on Fabian’s face vanished the moment he heard that, and his expression turned ice-cold with rage in an instant. Hannah felt a shiver down her spine when she noticed the change and went silent immediately.
“Oh? Who gave you the courage to take that tone with me, eh?” Fabian asked with a very cold expression.
Hannah felt an inexplicable sense of fear when she saw him acting like this.
“I…I’m sorry…” Hannah knew he would take any further resistance as an act of defiance and punish her hard for it. Not wanting to go through that abuse again, she had no choice but to give in.
“Well? Can you answer my question now?” Fabian pressed on with a hostile expression.
“Yes…” Hannah replied, feeling relieved that he had dropped the topic.
