Chapter 158 Complete Ignore Her
“Gianna, I was wrong before. If I had known earlier that the person I was being arranged to marry
was you,
I would never have refused. But it’s not too late now. You’re single, and I’m single too. Whenever you’re ready, I can be your choice.”
After saying this, Maverick intended to leave.
But Gianna called out to him, “Maverick, I hope you understand that you deserve better. There’s no need to waste your time on me.”
Maverick replied, “In my heart, you’re the best. Gianna, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. It’s my own business to like you. Whether you choose me or not is your freedom. Regardless of the outcome, I can accept it calmly.”
With these words, Maverick left the office.
However, Gianna was troubled by his words throughout the day.
For Gianna, during this period of time spent with Maverick, she regarded him more as a friend than anything else. There was nothing more between them.
But Maverick was stubborn like a bull, never turning back until he hit a wall.
Gianna sighed and forced herself not to think about this matter any longer, immediately immersing herself in her work. As the end of the work day approached, Lily called her.
“Lily!”
Through the phone, Lily could sense Gianna’s exhaustion during this period. “Gianna, you’ve been busy with work lately, haven’t you?”
Gianna smiled. “It’s been alright!”
Lily knew that Gianna, like her son Shawn, was a workaholic. Once engrossed in work, she would forget about everything else.
“Come to our house for dinner tonight. I made grilled steak, your favorite.”
“Sure! I’ve been missing your cooking. It’s making my mouth water.”
“Don’t always be busy with work. Leave some time to enjoy life. I’ve already asked Shawn to pick you up. He should be at your company by now.”
Gianna was surprised, “Shawn came to my company?”
“Calculating the time, he should be almost there.”
As she was speaking, Gianna saw Shawn outside the office through the gla*s screen. There was a sudden softness in her eyes and expression. “I see him! See you tonight!”
After hanging up, Gianna couldn’t wait and hurriedly walked out.
“Mr. Fallon!”
Upon hearing this address, Shawn raised an eyebrow and then reached out to ruffle her head. “Have you forgotten our previous agreement again? Please, just call me Shawn.”
Gianna stuck out her tongue playfully. “Haha, just kidding with you, Shawn!”
When Gianna called his name, she spoke in a soft whisper that only they could hear.
Vicky, who was following behind, witnessed this scene without any visible emotion, but her heart was already in turmoil!
Vicky thought about the information she had learned from Sienna and the findings she had

obtained through her private investigation. Her initial admiration for Gianna gradually transformed into contempt.
“How could a divorced woman be deserving of Shawn?” Vicky thought.
“Ms. Lewis!” Vicky took the initiative to greet Gianna. It was only then that Gianna noticed her.
“Excuse me, who are you?”
Vicky didn’t speak but looked at Shawn instead.
She intended to introduce herself through Shawn to Gianna. However, at this moment, Shawn’s focus was solely on Gianna, completely ignoring Vicky. He didn’t even spare her a glance.
Vicky had been following Shawn for so many years, and this was the first time he completely ignored her.
But even so, she maintained her composure and extended her hand towards Gianna. “Ms. Lewis, nice to meet you! I’m Mr. Fallon’s a*sistant, Vicky.”
