    “Offering yourself?” Mia was taken aback.


    “Absolutely! When someone saves your life and shows such immense kindness, how can you not


    repay them more significantly? How can you not show your gratitude to Mr. Jaber?” Ceci remarked.


    As she spoke, she yfully winked at Mia.


    Mia fully understood what Ceci was implying and couldn’t help but shoot her a re, her face crimson


    as if she could feel the blood rushing to her checks.


    Ceci’s interference was only adding fuel to the fire!


    It could jeopardize her friendship with Han if things didn’t work out.


    Noticing Mia’s silence, Ceci let out a subtle sigh and lightly nudged Han’s shoulder. “Mr. Jaber, take


    a good look at how stunning Mimi is. She’s undoubtedly the perfect match for you, wouldn’t you


    agree?”


    “Miss Lawson, please refrain from causing any further disruptions. I am currently focused on providing


    medical treatment to Mia,” Han stated, slightly frowning.


    Ceci’s meddling was indeedplicating matters!


    He and Mia were merely friends, and if their rtionship hadn’t naturally evolved into something more,


    forcing it could jeopardize even their friendship.


    Ceci had further remarks on her mind, but a sharp look from Mia caused her to halt.


    She recognized that pushing the matter further could jeopardize their rtionship’s delicate bnce.


    And so five minutester, Han concluded the treatment, effectively alleviating Mia’s leg cramp.


    Han let out a sigh of relief and carefully lowered Mia’s legs. “Remember to warm up before


    swimming next time.”


    “Thank you,” Mia expressed tenderly toward Han, her face tinged with a blush as she modestly


    crossed her legs.


    After being in such an intimate position with Han, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of self–


    consciousness. Her face turned scarlet, and she found herself lost for words, unsure how to respond.


    Han rose to his feet, casting a scrutinizing gaze at the two women. “I’ve pondered on the matter, and


    there’s no need for you both to intervene with Nichs. I’ll take care of it.”


    Although Han had only crossed paths with Nichs briefly, he could discern from his demeanor that


    Nichs was far from being a virtuous man.


    Unless these two women possessed the clout to stand on equal ground with Nichs’s influential


    family, any attempt to confront him would be akin to throwing themselves into the lion’s den.


    “No, I can’t allow that! I caused this whole situation, so it’s my responsibility to set things right!” Ceci


    insisted urgently.


    Han remained resolute. “This is beyond your ability to handle. It’s decided. You two stay clear of it.


    I’ll call someone higher–ups, and I’m confident I can sort it out,” he dered calmly.

    As he spoke, he leisurely lit a cigarette, taking deliberate drags.


    “The higher–ups?” Mia and Ceci exchanged puzzled nces.


    “Mr. Jaber, are you looking for someone from the Labenz family?”


    Ceci shook her head, her voice filled with gravity. “Based on what I know about the Bet family,


    even if youbined all the members of the Labenz family, they wouldn’t stand a chance against the


    might of the Bet family.”


    “The Labenz family won’t be able to resolve this!”


    “While others might not be aware of Nichs, she knew all too well about his family, the Bet family.


    The Bet family, a legendary powerhouse, stood unrivaled among their peers, a force so


    commanding that other families paled inparison.


    Han casually blew out a plume of smoke. “Being a security guard is merely a facade. If I were to


    disclose my true identity, it would leave you both utterly shocked.”


    “The real identity?”


    Ceci and Mia locked eyes, their astonishment reflected in their gazes.


    They turned their gaze back to Han. “Mr. Jaber, what is your true identity?”


    Taking another drag from his cigarette, Han responded calmly, “That’s ssified information.


    However, I assure you that my higher–ups will resolve this matter.”


    “So, there’s no need for you to worry!”


    “Alright then, that’s all I have to say. It seems like you both are on the path to recovery. I have other


    matters, so I’ll be on my way


    Without hesitation, Han swiftly walked out the door, leaving no chance for Mia and Ceci to persuade


    him to stay.


    “Mr. Jaber!”


    Ceci’s face turned dismayed as she hurriedly chased after him, hoping to catch up and convince him to


    stay.


    Regrettably, Han had disappeared without a trace,


    “Really? Why did he run off so abruptly? Do we look like flesh–eating monsters or something?” Ceci


    stamped her foot in exasperation.


    She pouted and returned to the room, giving Mia a piercing look. “Mimi, you liked Mr. Jaber, didn’t you?


    Why are you backing down now, of all times?”


    Mia sat up, gazing in the direction where Han had disappeared, and let out a sigh. “I do like him, but


    sometimes love is unrequited.


    “He doesn’t like me!”


    “Don’t say that. You’re stunningly beautiful, with a fantastic physique and a well–known reputation.


    You’re the dream girl of countless men. How could he not be interested in you?”


    “I can tell he doesn’t have any feelings for me, not even a hint of attraction.”


    “No attraction at all? How is that possible? Look at you, in that swimsuit, with your incredible figure.


    Even I find myself having inappropriate thoughts about you. If Mr. Jaber doesn’t feel that way, does it


    mean he’s gay?”


    “What? He’s gay?


    Mia’s jaw dropped in surprise, her face filled with disbelief. “Ceci, how can you say such things about


    Mr. Jaber?”


    “He’s not even interested in stunning beauties like us. He’s not a normal man!” Ceci asserted.


    “Don’t make baseless assumptions. Mr. Jaber is not like what you described,” Mia firmly countered.


    Having been in the industry for a long time, she had encountered many people, including those with


    unconventional orientations.


    In her experience, individuals with such orientations often exhibited distinct traits, such as being


    exceptionally clean or effeminate.


    Han didn’t fit into those categories, so Ceci’s description didn’t apply to him.


    Come on. I was sharing my thoughts. There’s no need for you to defend him like that. He hasn’t even


    expressed any romantic interest in you. Are you ready to surrender yourself so quickly?” Ceci yfully


    remarked.


    Mia shot Ceci a stern look but remained silent. Her gaze remained fixed on the direction Han had


    gone, her expression filled with solemnity and sorrow.


    As a major celebrity, she had experienced the ups and downs of the entertainment industry, and she


    could gauge a man’s interest in her from his eyes alone.


    Yet, in Han’s gaze, she couldn’t detect that spark.


    Han exited the vi and hopped into his car, driving away from the scene.


    While driving, he dialed Zachary’s number and spoke into the phone, “
