"Are you serious?" Ivan asked hesitantly. "Rachel did this?"
"No one pays me to lie to you." Apple looked straight into Ivan's eyes. "I have a boyfriend, Jayden Tordoff, you think I need money to lie? My fiance can pay you ten times what they pay you."
Well, Apple had to admit that sounded pretty cocky, but, what could she do? She just couldn't stay silent and also, she was very upset that Ivan risked himself to get the money.
Ivan was silent for a moment when he heard those words. He looked completely shocked, then realized how stupid he was to ask such a question.
Of course, Apple didn't need other people's money when her fiance was so loaded and indulgent.
"Can we still be friends?" Ivan asked when he had realized his mistake. But, turning back time, Ivan would probably do the same. Because in the end, Apple survived and she didn't appear to have been hurt or traumatized.
