Just as I was about to call Ivan Underwood to ask clearly, his call ca through.
"What’s the reason Azure Vaughn escaped bla? Just tell directly." I asked directly, not wanting to be kept in the dark about this matter.
"Let’s et up tomorrow and talk face to face. I’ll take you out to eat," Ivan Underwood responded indifferently, a hint of subtle weariness in his voice.
I’m not usually interested in eating, but for sothing important, I agreed without hesitation, "Okay, see you tomorrow."
After hanging up, it was already ti to get off work. I quickly tidied up and was about to head ho when Leah Lane’s call ca through, "What the hell, Henry Preston is with Azure Vaughn again?"
"What?" I didn’t understand for a mont.
"Azure Vaughn made a high-profile announcent that she’s with Henry Preston! It’s all over Weibo. With her status combined with Henry Preston’s, it’s causing quite a stir. I really didn’t expect these two to get back together, it’s speechless!" Leah Lane’s words were full of disdain and anger.
After a montary surprise, I beca calm. Isn’t this normal? Henry Preston, seeing no hope with , chose to devote himself to Azure Vaughn, who’s totally focused on him.
"h, let them be." I replied casually.
"Of course, let them be. We don’t look back on past relationships. It’s just grossing out a bit. I feel disgusted." Leah Lane replied angrily.
I didn’t echo her anymore because Azure Vaughn disgusting is nothing new. I just hope she won’t disgust again in the future.

The next day.
Since Ivan Underwood had a night shift today, we decided to et in the afternoon for a al.
"There’s a nice Italian restaurant, I’ll take you there," Ivan Underwood said as soon as he saw , taking my hand and leading forward.
His grip was just right, neither too forceful nor too easy for to break free from. A faint scent of soap wafted from his body under the sunlight.
I didn’t pull my hand away, trying to adapt, but it felt a bit strange.
After walking for about two or three minutes, we arrived at an Italian restaurant.
The atmosphere was elegant and romantic, perfect for a date.
"How did you know about this place?" I asked curiously after sitting down.
Because Ivan Underwood had never been in a relationship before, basically without any dating experience, he shouldn’t be familiar with things like this.
"I checked online guides. If I’m taking you out for a al, I should be prepared," Ivan Underwood said, handing the nu with a smile on his lips.
He even prepared a guide, indeed very thoughtful. It would be untrue to say my heart wasn’t moved at all.
He continued, "Take a look and see what you want to eat."
I nodded, casually ordering so food I liked, then started talking about Sean Lawson and Azure Vaughn. Ivan Underwood seed unwilling to speak openly about Azure Vaughn, making feel increasingly agitated.
At this mont, I saw a couple push the door open, and my already foul mood worsened instantly.
Azure Vaughn, with a happy smile, arm in arm with Henry Preston, entered talking and laughing. When she saw , her expression froze.
Only last night did they announce being together, and today they are already out together.
"Shall we go to another restaurant?" Ivan Underwood noticed Henry Preston and Azure Vaughn and sensed my change in mood, thoughtfully asking .
However, just as he finished speaking, Azure Vaughn sat down intentionally with Henry Preston at the seat next to us, her gaze blatantly piercing. I could feel her eyes constantly on .
I frowned, then lowered my eyes to the food on the table, and said calmly, "No need to change, this place is quite good."
Ivan Underwood glanced at Henry Preston and Azure Vaughn, choosing to respect my decision. But the pleasant atmosphere of our conversation was disrupted by their arrival.
Azure Vaughn began ordering with her usual sweet and clear voice, "What do you want to eat? Is this okay?"
