It was better left unsaid, but now that it was mentioned, Lina felt even more embarrassed. It was just a slip of the tongue and not what she actually meant. However, Fabian Nala's words only intensified her guilt, making her feel like one of those women who always dwell on men's mistakes.
"No, no, Fabian, I've never blamed you, so there's nothing to forgive!" Afraid that he wouldn't believe her, Lina hastily added, "Really, really, I just accidentally misspoke. I was talking about women with that kind of personality, not about you ever liking Ivy. I didn't take that to heart because when I was with you, you already had feelings for her, so... "
"Didn't take it to heart?" Upon hearing this, Fabian Nala's face darkened instantly. If it weren't for Michael Gordon's wedding, he would have given her a good scolding. Considering the timing of her last surgery, it's about time he disciplines her again. He's been suppressing his emotions for too long, and he feels a little off-balance.
