Business guy can still have a chance but he's about to bang with the maso boxer so maybe he doesn't care about his chick anymore he's currently after a dick.....hope this helps
She pretty much was done with him considering it seems that ever since he moved to that area for business their relationship was neglected (and even before the move we get hints that his work takes precedence and its his main priority) .
He just got all this pressure from colleagues and the community to close up this deal and the boxing gym is the only thing standing in his way sooo he's about to do whatever it takes to get out of this town that its clear he doesn't want to be in.
sooo yea I guess, even tho their relationship was already in shambles he probably could have tried to salvage it, but I also think he Thinks the answer is to close this deal so he can get back to the life he lead before
I just read ch 9, can someone tell me if he cheated on his partner back home with the guy that does boxing? Or did they break up? The message wasn't clear to me
