Leo stood outside the women's restroom, listening for any sounds. When he heard nothing, he quietly walked
in.
Suddenly, a man’s voice echoed inside.
Leo froze, his mind blank. Before he could react, a strange woman appeared at the entrance.
She looked up at the sign above the door, her face instantly darkening. “Are you a pervert or something? Trying
to take pictures in here? I'm calling security!”
Leo had never been this embarrassed in his life. It was all that damn Yolanda’s fault.
He kept his head down and hurried out, but he could still hear the woman cursing behind him. “I just don’t get
what kind of sick thrill you get from spying on women in the bathroom. Why can’t creeps like you just disappear
already?”
Leo's face was dark with anger. By the the got back to the private room, he was in a foul mood.
He saw Charles still chatting and laughing with Samuel, the whole group looking like business elites. Leo couldn't
help but feel a stab of jealousy and think bitterly, ‘Your wife's off in the bathroom with spretty boy, and here
you are, chatting away like nothing's wrong."
He hated Yolanda. He should've just dragged Charles over there and ruined her reputation completely, show her
what happens when you stab Charles in the back.
But instead, he just sat there quietly, his heart pounding like he was the one sneaking around.
He grabbed a glass of water from the table and took a couple of sips, trying to hide how rattled he was. But his
mind kept spinning. What the hell were Yolanda and that pretty boy doing in the bathroom?
‘Did they kiss?’ Leo wondered, jealousy gnawing at him.
‘Or did they do something else?’ The thought made his chest tighten.
‘No way
she'd go that far, not with everyone else on the sfloor. That kind of thing takes time, Leo thought bitterly. At
most, maybe it was just a quick hand job."
‘Her hands are definitely soft enough for that,’ Leo couldn’t help but think.
He wanted to smack himself. ‘What the fuck am | even thinking?‘ Leo cursed himself, feeling like a total idiot.
He chugged the rest of his water, his heart racing so fast he could barely catch his breath.

Five minutes later, Yolanda walked back in.
Her makeup was still untouched, and her hair was perfectly neat-she looked exactly the sas when she
left.

She sat down next to Charles, her lashes lowered as she quietly ate her food, occasionally listening in on the
men’s conversation.
No one would ever suspect she'd just been messing around with another man.
Leo felt off, a weird restlessness gnawing at him, and he couldn't even figure out why.
When he left the private room again, he thought to himself, ‘Seriously, what the hell is wrong with me?‘
He walked into the men’s restroom and saw that pretty boy standing at the sink, washing his hands.
Leo had moved into the sapartment complex as lan, but the last few times they'd run into each other, the
lighting had been dim, and he hadn't really gotten a good look at the guy's face.
Now, with the bright lights, he could see him clearly.
The guy was young, probably just in his early twenties, with this weird mix of innocence and maturity that was
kind of charming. His face was seriously good-looking-easily on par with Charles, maybe even better.
No wonder Yolanda was so completely taken with him.
lan could feel Leo staring at him. He finished washing his hands slowly, then grabbed a paper towel to dry
them.
Leo scoffed, crossing his arms. “Looking all put together, but you're just another loser chasing after a married
woman. Seriously, don’t you know she’s already taken?”
lan tossed the paper towel into the trash can and replied coolly, “I have no idea what you're talking about.”
“Quit pretending. | saw you two kissing in the women’s restroom,” Leo said, his tone laced with disdain.
lan looked up, his face still cold, but there was a mocking glint in his eyes. “Is she your wife?”
Leo stiffened, then snapped back, “She’s not my wife! | just can’t stand watching you two. You and her? That's
never gonna end well. Do yourselves a favor and break it off now.”
lan’s expression stayed cool. He didn’t even bother to respond, just headed straight for the door.
Leo had no idea what got into him, but he suddenly stepped forward and blocked lan’s path.
They were about the sheight, but Leo carried this unique, almost regal arrogance from a lifetof being
pampered.
But somehow, it just made him more intriguing instead of annoying.
lan’s eyes darkened, but Leo held his gaze. “Seriously, you're not gonna break up with her? Don’t ccrying to
“Not breaking up, not regretting it. You done here?” lan shot back, his voice icy.
Leo was suddenly at a loss for words-this guy was really something else.

‘Yolanda’s nothing special. | honestly don’t get what kind of spell she’s put on this guy, Leo thought bitterly.
“Look, man, I'm telling you this for your own good. She’s got a husband, and he’s seriously top-tier. She's
probably just messing around with you for a thrill. Don’t fall too deep, or you'll be the one left in the dust when
she goes running back to her husband. She’s been into him for fifteen years, you know? Bet you didn’t know
that, huh?” Leo said, trying to knock ssense into him.
“Are you finished?” lan said, his brows drawing together, a rare edge of impatience in his voice.
lan’s brows furrowed, and for once, he actually looked a little annoyed.
“You-" Leo blurted out, about to say more.
But lan interrupted him. “I was the one who went after her. | made the first move. I'm not expecting anything in
return.”
With that, lan stepped around him and walked out.
Leo lingered for a moment before heading back to the private room. By the the returned, the group was
nearly finished with their conversation.
Charles was dressed in a sharp gray suit, exuding both elegance and warmth. He leaned in close to Yolanda,
whispered something in her ear, and then gently bit her lips, the gesture intimate and unmistakable.
Leo sat across from them, his lashes lowered, staring absentmindedly at his glass, lost in his own thoughts.
He couldn’t help but think, ‘Charles has no idea those pretty lips were just bitten by another man.”
Leo knew deep down that no guy would ever be cool with that.
But the more he dwelled on it, the hotter his chest felt, like ants crawling all over him.
He swallowed hard, and then he heard Xavier's voice. “Let's go. What are you still doing sitting there?”
Leo looked up and saw that everyone had already stood up. He quickly got to his feet.
As they stepped into the elevator, Charles had Yolanda tucked under his arm.
Just as the doors were about to close, they suddenly slid open again. Standing outside was the director from
earlier, with lan right behind him.
The director's face lit up with surprise. “Small world! Mr. Sinclair, Ms. Grant, Mr. Lawson, you guys finished eating
too?”
Charles nodded, and everyone shuffled aside to make room for them.
The director and lan joined them in the elevator.
Yolanda felt her heart pounding so hard it was practically in her throat. With Charles on her right and lan on her
left, it felt like she was smack in the middle of an emotional warzone.

She could even feel lan’s fingertips graze hers in a teasing way, right under Charles's nose.
Yolanda quickly pulled her hand back and clung to Charles's arm with both hands.
Charles glanced down at her and smiled. “What's wrong? Cold?”

Yolanda looked uneasy, and just as she was about to make up an excuse, the elevator suddenly jolted. The lights
overhead flickered twice, then went out all of a sudden.
You've got to be kidding me,’ Yolanda thought, her heart pounding.
She squeezed her eyes shut, and in the confusion, she suddenly felt two hands on her waist.
She couldn't tell which one belonged to Charles and which to lan. She wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear.
