Chapter 669
Den came up with a rather standard answer.
“Miss McKinnon needs you still.” He said, “She called me today and told me about how you’ve been
acting off recently. She’s very worried about you as a friend. I feel that we shouldn’t affect her usually
calm life anyhow, don’t you think so?”
Glenna felt her heart sink. She had naively assumed that Den perhaps cared about her at the very
least, which was why he would try to exin the painful topic to her willingly.
“So…” Glenna’s voice was shaky when she said, “So, you’re only here to see me to solve this issue.
You’ve never found yourself to be at fault, right?”
“A deceit will always be wrong. However, as I’ve said, we don’t have a right to intervene as outsiders.”
Den looked at the tears she held back in her eyes calmly. “Glenna, you’re an adult and a childhood
friend of Fionn. I hope you won’t ruin your friendship with Miss McKinnon because you’re doing it out of
momentary spite.”
Glenna clenched her fist tightly and looked at Den’s extremely calm face. She finally understood
what Fionn had been implying in the past.

Den was too heartless. Or, he could be described as a man who had seen it all such that he was so
infuriatingly calm when he dealt with everything. He was so calm that he had lost the reactions and
emotions that a person should have, i
Glenna smirked and said, “I understand. It seems I shouldn’t havee to have a meal with you.
We’re not the same kind of people from the start.”
She grabbed her jacket in preparation to leave, while Den caught her off guard by saying, “Glenna,
you have a crush on me, right?”
When Glenna heard the remark, she felt her emotions boiling in her chest, Den said nonchntly,
“Since you have a crush on me, you may continue to have a crush on me then. We can go back exactly
as we were and maintain our previous rtionship. As long as you’re willing to pretend as if nothing
has happened, I will even agree to give you a chance at dating me.”
Glenna breathed deeply and came to realize what the term ‘overwhelming coldness’ meant.
In Den’s eyes, her feelings for him were akin to a transaction.
Glenna red at Den in rage, with tears streaming down her face.
‘‘You have utterly no idea what love is… Mr. King!”
Den was momentarily stunned upon seeing her tears. He then cracked a smile and said, “If I don’t
know what love is, no one else will know then. I know what love is even more after experiencing some
events. Love is of no great importance and can be used to trade for happiness. Isn’t love good for
keeping everyone happy?
“If one insists on mutual loving at all times, the loss will outweigh the gain, and love will lose its
meaning.”
He sought the advantages and avoided the disadvantages of love like a businessman by giving a well-
reasoned statement.
Glenna shook her head with all her might. She discovered that there was nothing else for her to say to
Den, so she left in strides with her jacket in her arm.
Den said when she walked outside, “Don’t let Miss McKinnon wait for too long until she grows
anxious. She’s still worried about you.”
The door was mmed.
Den poured himself a drink and finished it in one gulp. Glenna’s remark was still ying in his head
constantly.
“You have utterly no idea what love is… Mr. King!”
Den pondered for a moment. “Don’t I?”
He sneered and thought about Laura’s doings. He thought about how she chose to be on the opposing
side quickly when she had a choice between him and Ci Ilian. He poured another drink.
‘If I don’t know what love is, so be it. This is just what I want now, at the very least.’
A few days passed, and Deirdre finally received a call from Glenna on her own initiative. Deirdre’s
anxious mind was finally set at ease when she heard Glenna’s voice.
