Chapter 971

“Just a ‘sorry’? That’s all you can say?” Avril sneered. While staring down at the woman in front of her,
she remembered who she was. She had come here once to look for Levant the other day.

“Oh, it’s you… Are you here to see Levant again? What is it this time?”

Tiffany’s heart skipped a beat at her interrogative tone.

She seems so wary of me looking for Levant. She might be his wife then.

Should I tell her about the money I owe him? Will she misunderstand anything?

“I…” she stammered.

“What is it? Say it properly! I won’t believe if you try pulling nonsense like you’re here to apply for a
waitress’ position,” Avril snapped impatiently.

Tiffany drew a deep breath. She looked at Avril and asked carefully, “Are you related to Mr. Levant in
any way?”

Avril was taken aback for a second. “Levant and I? We’re family.”

Tiffany went silent again.

They are family. Does she mean to say that she’s his wife?

“What’s wrong with you?” Avril rolled her eyes. “Just tell me now. Why’re you looking for Levant?”

“He helped me once. I’m here to thank him.”

“He helped you?” Avril narrowed her eyes in disbelief.



Levant would actually lend a hand to another woman? Since when had her brother become such a
kindhearted person?

She had always thought that Levant took after Murphy. Both of them had always been the kind of
people who would only do something that served their self-interests. In fact, they would use any
possible method under the sky to achieve their personal goals.

This woman had now piqued her interest. What on earth could Levant had done for her, so much so
that she would purposely come here repeatedly just to express her gratitude?

Curious, she raised an eyebrow. “What did he help you with? What did he do?”

After a second’s hesitation, Tiffany replied, “He had lent me some money when I was in trouble.”

“How much did he give to you?”

“Ten million.”

“What?” Avril gasped in complete shock.

Ten million wasn’t a small amount to be given to someone they barely knew. She observed Tiffany with
scrutinizing eyes. Why would Levant be so generous towards this random woman? Could he be
interested in her by any chance?

Tiffany felt uneasy at Avril’s surprised reactions and how she had been staring at her.

Oh no, has she misunderstood what is going on?

She was unsure if she should explain further. She carefully observed Avril’s reactions as she hesitated.

Avril noticed the anxious look on her face.



She smiled. “Can we have a talk?”

Since Levant had found out about the incident of her attempting to seduce Stephen earlier, it’s likely
that he would use it to manipulate or threaten her whenever he would need to.

Therefore, she decided that this would be a good opportunity to dig into some of his personal secrets
as well. She could use this information in her own defense against him.

There wouldn’t be a need for her to worry about him reporting the incident earlier to their father as well.

Tiffany had no idea what was actually going on in Avril’s mind. Her only worry was if the latter had
misunderstood the type of relationship between Levant and herself.

“Please don’t misunderstand. I was really in deep trouble that day that I even thought of dying. He’d
only wanted to save me, hence he offered the money. I believe he would’ve helped either way even if it
were someone else,” she explained.

Avril gave an indifferent smirk. “Nonsense! I don’t think he would’ve even bothered if it were someone
else. He must have helped you because he’s interested in a woman like you.”

Interested in me?

Tiffany could tell that Avril had only blurted these words out casually without meaning them. But for
some reason, her heart leaped for a moment. She felt an odd sense of joy, albeit it was short-lived and
quickly replaced with a feeling of melancholy.

She was well aware of her own status. She knew about Levant’s identity too.

They were from two different worlds.



She was a divorced woman, not to mention she had a child tagging along. Even if she were to be an
unmarried virgin, she would still be very far from being a suitable match for someone like him.

If she could ever describe the difference between Levant and herself, it would be like the sky and the
dirt ground. She would never dare to have any ambitious desires towards him.

“You’ve misunderstood. He’s a good person. With his status, he can easily ask for any type of woman
he wishes for. Someone like me is way too far from being qualified in any way. It’s impossible for him to
have any interest in me at all.”

Avril was amused.

This woman was unexpectedly well aware of her own limits. It’s rare to see such a self-conscious and
well-behaved woman like her these days.

“Levant isn’t lacking in money, but unfortunately he couldn’t just get any woman he wanted like you
said…” Avril sighed. “In fact, he just got dumped by someone he likes! He’s been head over heels for
her, but sadly she didn’t reciprocate.”
