Anger mixed with his blood and rushed through his veins with a roar, making it almost impossible for him to control himself.
“Date?” he repeated what Lennon said.
“Yeah.” Lennon was still smiling, “It’s pretty obvious, the whole internet already knew, right?”
Maxwell laughed and said, “Lennon, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to.”
“The Wilkinson family was always beneath the Humphrey family, and you wanted to take down the Humphrey Group with this kind of low move?”
But Lennon just smiled and didn’t answer.
“Stay away from Stephanie, got it!” Maxwell stepped forward and warned.
But Lennon just lowered his eyes a little.
He didn’t look at Maxwell, and his smile stayed the`same.
He said, “You and Roxanne have gone out to eat together so many times, but I just had one meal with Stephanie and you couldn’t take it?”
“You!”
Lennon didn’t back down, he moved forward too.
He looked up at Maxwell and said, “I hoped the Wilkinson family would do well, but the truth was, I liked Stephanie too.”

“I had other ways to crush the Humphrey Group. I wasn’t as dirty as you thought.”
Maxwell seemed like he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.
“You?” he said sarcastically, “liked Stephanie?”
“What are you kidding?”
“Yeah, I liked her.” There was a hint of coldness in Lennon’s smile. “I’m not joking, I’m serious.”
“That day I told you, I liked her, liked her for a really long time, day and night, couldn’t stop thinking about her.”
“You’re not the only one in this world who deserved her.”
Lennon looked into Maxwell’s eyes and said word by word:
“I saw her good sides, I liked her personality, admired the way she handled things, and respected her abilities.”
“I liked everything about her, good or bad, I liked everything about her.”
“Compared to your shallow and careless attitude toward her, I think I knew and respected her better than you did.“ ́
The smile on Maxwell’s face slowly faded.
He didn’t say anything for a long time and looked at Lennon in the dim light.
It seemed like they wanted to figure out if what Lennon said was true
or not.
Lennon didn’t avoid it and looked calmly at Maxwell.

The two of them were silent for a long time.
“Did she come and tell you to say this to me?” Maxwell said at last.
But the only response he got from Lennon was a cold laugh.
Finally, Maxwell seemed to have finally decided that what Lennon said was true.
“She was with me for seven years,” Maxwell said.
“I know,” Lennon replied calmly.
“We used to have kids.” Maxwell clenched his fists.
Lennon squinted his eyes a bit, “I knew.”
Maxwell’s chest heaved hard, and his bloodshot eyes were locked on
Lennon.
Malice surged up. He stared at Lennon and said, “We lived together for seven years, day and night. What made you think you knew her better than I did!”
“She was mine, I saw every side of her, I saw her being affectionate more than you did.”
Maxwell kept talking, one sentence after another, like this would make Lennon give up.
“When she was crying in my arms, Lennon, you were still drifting at sea!”
Lennon didn’t smile anymore.
The lights in the hallway were dim, and the green emergency exit lights made him look kind of dangerous.

He took two steps forward, grabbed Maxwell by the collar, and slammed him hard against the wall.
“What? Did that get to you?” Maxwell laughed like crazy, his eyes bloodshot, and said word by word, “She was mine, she’ll always be
mine!”
