Two weeks had passed since Xiran and Rivan had exchanged words at the party, and Irlana and her mother moved out. Rivan had called his friend multiple times but he no longer picked up his calls.
Rivan knew he had crossed the line by dragging Aselia into the conversation and had deeply hurt him when he was already going through a tough time. This agitated Rivan and he wanted to go meet him but was afraid they will end up fighting again.
Irlana had resumed work at the company but she didn't visit him in his office anymore. He knew she was avoiding him, giving him time to figure out where they stood.
Layna on the other hand had been trying to be utterly sweet. On more than one occasion she had tried to seduce him and hinted they should get back together.
