Chapter 110
Even when she berated him or when their arguments turned physical, it was a preferable torment
compared to this current void where he couldn’t see her or touch her.
His gaze darkened, and his voice grew huskier. “ra, with your head always in the clouds, why
don’t you try writing? I’m doing this for Anders‘ father Trevor’s sake, to throw some business his
son’s way–it’s got nothing to do with you. Besides, my great–uncle has already dropped hints to
Grandma Rose. If I don’t step in and help, do you really think she’d let it slide? Don’t tter
yourself thinking this is all for you. You’re not that irresistible.”
ra could detect a hint of scorn in his dismissive tone. She knew that the typically cold and
ruthlessn, who didn’t spare much thought for family ties, always made an exception for Grandma
Rose.
Her guard dropped a notch. “When would you be avable?” she asked.
“Nine in the morning, at the golf club I frequent. Don’t bete,” he replied curtly.
When ra arrived at the golf club,n had just finished a perfect swing. The ball hadn’t even
landed when Heidi dashed over to see where it would fall. Then, with excitement, she called out,
“Brother, you lost,n got a hole–in–one!”
Edwin strolled over, a smile ying on his lips as he ruffled her hair affectionately. “Who’s your
actual brother here? Why are you so thrilled to see me lose?”
Heidi leaned into her brother’s shoulder, her voice yful. “Ian was once a world champion, brother.
You’re already amazing for keeping up with him. Don’t get discouraged, keep at it!”
“Alright, chatterbox, you’re good with words. Take a break while I have a word withn.”

Heidi pouted and moved away from the two men, but as she turned around, she spotted ra
standing in the rest area. Her expression, previously warm, turned to ice.
She approached ra rapidly, eyes cold. “What are you doing here?”

ra’s demeanor remained calm. “Business,” she said simply.
Heidi let out a mockingugh. “Trying to secure a contract with the Hayes Corporation for Anders?
ra, I never realized you could be so shameless. How couldn, a man of such pride, ever want a
woman who’s been yed out by others?”
ra looked at her unflinchingly, a cold smile tugging at her lips. “I may be ‘yed out,’ but not as
much as
you?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“You know very well what I mean, Ms. Heidi, don’t you? Or would you like me to spill about those
messy affairs you had abroad three years ago?”
At these words, Heidi sprang to her feet, fury zing in her eyes. “You wouldn’t dare!”
“Whether I dare depends on your attitude. Do you think I’m unaware of who orchestrated my little
trip to the rooftop on the anniversary celebration day? Do you really believe I can’t uncover who
plotted to throw Anders and me together?”

Heidiughed dismissively. “You have no proof. Even if you toldn, do you think he’d believe you?
As long as we’re together, he’ll always trust me over you!”
ra’s eyes shed with a fierce glint as she faced Heldi’s arrogance,
Heidi was right. Between her and Heidi, Ian would never choose her.
ra couldn’t help but let out a coldugh. “Heidi, that drug was indeed a living hell for me, but I
should thank the person who drugged me. If it weren’t for that incident, I wouldn’t have entered the
legal field so quickly.
As ra’s words hung in the air, an icy voice came from behind. “What drug?”
