Sanford fell silent, before cautiously probing, “Maggie, are you attracted to men of his type?"

Maggie's eyes sparkled slightly.

“Karl is a nice guy, but he's more like a brother to me."

She viewed Karl as nothing more than a brother, and frankly, she Liked

Sanford's type.

Sanford felt uneasy before, but now, he felt a wave of relief as Maggie said she just treated Karl as a brother.

He continued to inquire, “Has your family been causing you any more trouble?"

Hearing this, Maggie balled her fingers into fists.

"They've tried to call me several times, but I haven't picked up."

In reality, she had taken a call from her mother once.

Her mother had informed her that Sanford had bought out her uncle's factory and that her aunt visited their house daily, wailing in despair.

Her mother had asked her to convince Sanford to discharge Yana from the psychiatric hospital, but she had refused.

There were more calls from her family Later on, but she ignored them.

"Well done. If your family attempts to trouble you again, reach out to me. I'll help you resolve the issue," assured Sanford.

Maggie smiled gratefully.

“Thank you.”

“You're welcome.”

Their conversation ended there. Shortly, the car pulled up at their destination.

Rosalynn and Brian had already exited their vehicle, and the group of four made their way into Royarid Club and to their reserved private room.

It was the same VIP private room that Brian and Sanford had typically booked in the past.

By this time, a significant number of guests had gathered in the room.

Rosalynn scanned the crowd, recognizing most of the faces, apart from Selina and Deanna.
