Shayla was dumbfounded and took a while to react. 

Lennon patiently explained to Shayla. 

After listening, Shayla let out a long sigh and said, “Ah, Mariela is pitiful. Can I refuse? I haven’t even met her yet, and now I have to play the role of her lover’s mistress. How am I supposed to face her in the future?” 

This is the reward Lennon handed over a card. 

Shayla snorted and turned her head to the side. “Don’t think you can buy me with money. I won’t do anything to harm a beautiful woman.” 

*8 million dollars.” 

But on the other hand.” Shayla smiled as she took the card.“We did this to protect Mariela. We just need to explain the misunderstanding in the future, and I believe Mariela, being generous, will surely understand us.” 

Shayla thought to herself, “Mariela, please don’t blame me. He is so generous.” 

She acted in a TV drama and worked tirelessly for several months, but only received a remuneration of 8 million dollars, which she had to pay 

taxes on. 

She thought, “Where can I find such a good job where I can earn a few months‘ worth of salary just by acting and taking a few photos with 

Lennon?” 

Lennon’s eyes remained cold, and there was no expression on his face.“Act like we are a real couple. Don’t let her see through.” Shayla patted her chest and assured, “You can trust me completely. I’m a movie queen.” 

After Mariela hung up the phone, she sat by the window, her eyes vacant, tears flowing uncontrollably. 

A few minutes passed, and Lennon called back. 

Mariela thought he was going to explain, and a wave of anticipation surged within her as she eagerly picked up the phone. Lennon pretended to be calm and said, “Shayla said that you called me.” 

Shayla… 

His tone was so gentle. 

It was like he used to call her. 

Mariela’s rising anticipation was cruelly crushed by his words. 

Mariela couldn’t help but ask, with a choked voice, “You and her…” 

She wondered if the news was true. 

She wondered if he would get together with her. 

But Mariela couldn’t ask him those questions. 

The chest pain was so intense that it made her feel suffocated. 

“Hmm,” Lennon’s voice was devoid of warmth.“We have already broken up, so it doesn’t concern you who I am with.” 

Mariela’s breath caught. 

She asked with a hoarse voice, “Are you lying to me, Lenny? I don’t believe that you will be with someone else right after breaking up. Tell me the truth, is it because of Nikolas? You haven’t changed your love, have you? You’re only doing this to protect me.” 

She sobbed. 

On the phone, Lennon listened to Mariela’s crying voice, his heart aching so much it felt like it was about to shatter. 

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said in a cold tone, “We’re done.” 

After saying that, he could no longer pretend to be cool and hastily hung up the phone. 

One more second, and he was about to be weak.
