Chapter 1160


    When Ian stepped into the private suite, it was filled with familiar faces from their circle.


    "Hey, have any of you heard about that newpany that popped up out of nowhere? They''ve


    snagged all of the Sanders'' family businesses in Greenfield. They haven''t even gone public yet, and


    their market cap is already 1 billion dors."


    "I heard. They''ve also invested in that big IP in the east side of the city. Their business is pretty much


    set for the next three years."


    "Rumor has it they''ll be listed on the Stock Exchange next month. Makes you wonder who''s pulling the


    strings behind the scenes."


    After discussing business, the conversation naturally shifted towards women.


    Then, someone noticed Phelps, who hadn''t said a word since the start of the gathering, and couldn''t


    resist teasing him.


    "A few days ago, Fitch came in with scratches on his neck from a woman. Ryan has a few girlfriends,


    too. Phelps, I think you''re the only bachelor left in this group.”


    Phelps, a doctor who was usually quiet during these gatherings, wasn''t often around due to his work.


    Among this group, he was closest to Ian.


    Someone asked, chuckling, “What about Dr. Herrington?”


    Phelps raised an eyebrow. He was rarely the subject of their discussions, and he wondered who had


    started it this time.


    He rarely wore suits off-duty, preferring casual attire when not in his white doctor''s coat.


    At that moment, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing the prominent veins on his forearms.


    Someone else decided to stir things up.


    “Wouldn''t it be interesting if Phelps and Ian fell for the same woman?”


    Ian shot a nce at the speaker, his gaze nonchnt.


    Phelpsughed outright, his eyes serious as he said, “Never.”


    He wasn''t interested in Maja at all, but Ian seemed to have his heart set on her.


    The group moved on to other topics, leaving only Fitch, sitting next to Ian, who ignored the previous


    conversation.


    “Ian, Dn hasn''t made any movestely.”


    Given Dn''s cunning, this silence was worrisome.


    Ian pushed his drink aside, then reconsidered and downed a few more, even deliberately choosing a


    few strong shots.


    Fitch frowned deeply at this, hearing Ian say, “If I get drunkter, call Maja for me.”


    Just as Ian finished speaking, Ryan came into the suite.


    “Ian, Maja seems to have run into trouble outside.”


    Meanwhile, at the entrance of the BlueSky Bar, Maja was trying to leave when she ran into another


    group. One woman threw a drink at her without warning.


    This caught everyone off guard.


    Maja was drenched, and the woman smirked triumphantly.


    “You shameless slut. You even seduced little Judith''s boyfriend. Why don''t you just die!”


    Maja looked at the woman.


    She was about her age, her face twisted with anger as she threw her ss at Maja.


    Someone quickly stepped in, “Linda, calm down. You''ve seen Judith, right? She’s fine.”


    Linda looked like she wanted to p Maja, her eyes filled with hatred, “Wait and see. I''ll be in


    Greenfield for a while. You''re done for!”


    Maja guessed that these were people from North America and they were here to visit Judith.


    She stepped forward without hesitation and pped Linda in return.


    Linda was stunned, “Do you know who I am?”


    Several other women gasped, ring at Maja.


    “Even though we''re not in North America, crushing you is as easy as stepping on an ant. How dare you

    hit Linda? You''re done for!”


    Linda looked like she wanted to strangle Maja.


    Maja stepped back and wiped her face with a tissue.


    Linda continued to curse, “You whore! We all know your whole family are criminals, still locked up in


    prison. You have no ce in our circle. You''re not even worth one of Judith''s fingers.”


    Just as she finished speaking, Judith, looking frail, walked in, nked by Dn and Beck.


    They were both impressive men. One was cool and mature, the other charming and smooth. They


    guarded Judith like knights protecting a princess.


    Behind them were several younger men, allforting Judith. They spoke in broken localnguage,


    clearly not fluent, but still trying their best to console her.


    They had alle a long way from North America, Judith''s friends from her circle.


    Judith bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes. She clung to Dn''s arm, “Dn, let''s go inside.”


    Inparison, Maja was alone, left in the cold.


    While Judith was showered with attention, Maja was just a dim star.
