Chapter 186 I Don’t Want to Owe You

• “No need. I’ll come by next time. See you.” Lin Xinze waved and turned into the elevator. Mia Shield walked him all the way to the elevator, waited until it went down, then turned back. As she unlocked the door, she said to Ben Walton, “Don’t get the wrong idea. There’s nothing between us. He’s a major client of our company, basically the Vice President of a partner company, in charge of this project. ‘Vice President’ sounds fancy, but the company is actually his dad’s. We had a business dinner tonight. I drank a bit, and he insisted on driving me home. It felt rude to refuse.”
• Mia made a point of explaining her relationship with the man. Ben could tell the guy was into Mia, and Mia knew it too.
• “Why are you explaining this to me? You don’t need to. It’s got nothing to do with me.” Ben kept a hard edge in his voice.
