She spoke in a calm tone, leaning back, “In their circle, anyone can treatlike this.”

Megan felt a chill all over, sat by the bed, held her hand, voice trembling with tears, “Yolanda......”

Yolanda wanted to smile, but the pain around her mouth and face made her frown slightly, “But | won't let them

bullyforever.”

Megan poured her swater.

But her mouth hurt too much to drink, and her eyes were swollen so badly they were just narrow slits.

Normally, if she wasn’t going back to Moonbay Estate, she should have called Charles to check in, so she

wouldn't get dragged into those degrading tests again tomorrow.

But she was in too much pain and curled up asleep on the hospital bed.

In the middle of the night, pain woke her, and she forced herself to turn over.

Megan stayed by her side, holding her hand, “Yolanda, if it hurts, just cry it out, it will make you feel better.”

In the darkness, Yolanda’s eyes shone brightly, sparkling like gems.

She said, “I won't be so obedient anymore.”

She didn’t shed a single tear from beginning to end.

It was as if something incredibly dark was tempting her to fall deeper and deeper into a bottomless abyss.

She thought Charles would call her the next morning, but when she called back Moonbay Estate, she learned

that Charles had left early that morning because of the sea route and wouldn't return for half a month.

Yolanda sighed in relief and spent a week resting at the hospital, repeatedly reviewing Vivian's files.

As a woman, Vivian's private life was rather open; whenever a male celebrity caught her eye, she would keep

him around for a while.

She was truly infatuated with Charles but never dared to let him see it.

As soon as Yolanda put down the tablet in her hand, she saw lan carrying a thermos box coming to visit her.

He was so tall that standing by her hospital bed put pressure on her.

Her face had already stopped swelling, but she still needed about ten more days to heal.

She put down the tablet, her expression calm. “Are you done filming?”

“Yeah.”

He opened the nearby insulated container, grabbed a spoon, scooped sout, blew on it, and held it to her

lips.

Yolanda felt like he had a lot to say but didn’t utter a word.

She ate half a small bowl, then closed her eyes to rest.

lan stood up and adjusted the height of her headboard. His eyes landed on the tablet, which displayed some

plans she had listed.

Yolanda felt his breath cvery close and couldn't help but open her eyes.

He was indeed looking at her, both hands placed on either side of her, seriously watching her.

Just as Yolanda was about to speak, he kissed her.

His kiss was urgent and passionate, leaving her nowhere to escape.

Megan just pushed the door open and, seeing the scene, was so shocked that the flowers in her hand fell to the

ground.

The noise made Yolanda shove the person away and slap lan across the face.

lan said nothing. He met her fiery, angry eyes and leaned in to peck her lips twice.

“I'll csee you tomorrow.”

Yolanda’s eyelashes trembled with anger.

lan stood up and walked past Megan.

Megan took ten seconds to recover, then picked up the flowers from the ground. “I never realized before, this

guy’s got quite a wild side.”

Yolanda was already feeling unwell, and now she felt even worse.

Megan felt her legs going weak. She had worked with lan for two years and always thought he was quiet and

reserved-never expected he’d dare to do something like this.

Forcefully kissing her boss.

No wonder before when Yolanda didn’t cto the studio, he asked several times. Later, after figuring some

things out, he stopped asking.

Megan took a sip of water to calm her racing heart. “So what you're saying is...”

Yolanda wiped the corner of her mouth. Right now, she was only focused on how to get back at Vivian; she

wasn't thinking about anything else.

“It’s nothing.”

Megan nodded, then asked, “Do you remember when you brought lan back? Back then, he seemed to have just

been expelled from school, and no one would take him in, so he started fighting in underground boxing matches.

When you brought him back, he was covered in wounds, his face so swollen you couldn't even recognize him.”

Yolanda was stunned. “That was him?”

That night, lan’s face was so badly swollen that his features were unrecognizable. She saw a group of people

beating him up and learned he owed money-about $10,000. That wasn’t much to her, so she paid on the spot,

took him to Megan, and told her to let lan leave once he recovered.

After that, she never looked back or even recognized that the nearly beaten-to-death guy was the slan.

Later, Megan signed lan, and after Yolanda got married, she never cto visit again.

Megan took another sip of water and couldn't help but advise, “If you didn’t mean anything by it, you should

have made that clear earlier. That kid was beaten so badly that night. | heard he borrowed high-interest loans

just to pay for his mom’s medical treatment. | don’t know who he offended, but no companies‘ dared to hire him.

It didn’t seem like it was his fault he got expelled either. Everything just went wrong. Later, | checked out the

underground boxing scene. Apparently, he fought like a maniac there-reckless, like a mad dog-and barely spoke,

as if he'd never seen money before. Even so, when he cto this studio, he gavemost of his earnings,

keeping very little for himself, all for his mom’s treatment. Yolanda, you should've been upfront sooner. He's

never been in a relationship, and if you both get too deep, there's no way out. | could tell early on that he had

feelings for you.”

Maybe it was because she was saved by her, the fledgling felt relieved.

Yolanda didn’t say anything; thinking about what she did that day, she wished she could slap herself.

Now it’s too late for Megan to say anything. Whatever she should or shouldn't have done, she has already done
