Ivan stood paralysed for a brief moment, processing what he was seeing.
'No way. No way. I'm hallucinating. No way.'
"Now you decide to show up! After you had the time of your life yesterday night with the other lady, you decided to come here to hide from me!" Daiyu almost choked on her saliva.
Ivan didn't pick up the accusation. All he could hear was a tinnitus-like sound.
Roger fumbled to put his stuff behind the zipper, but he was successful. "Ivan, I was not expecting to see you at my place. Why didn't you call?"
Ivan, with a dazed and crestfallen expression, had his gaze fixed on Daiyu. He turned to Roger, and his expression twisted from dazed and crestfallen to unbridled rage. Roger felt the palpable animosity emanating from Ivan, and his instincts warned him to flee from the scene, but his decision-making was slow.
'He wouldn't hurt me, he is my friend,' Roger hesitated to flee from Ivan.
