n^2 - 1

The more direct answer is to look at a rectangle with sides of n + 1 and n - 1, let’s go with n = 2

If you cut off the end of that rectangle, you make it smaller, 2 * 3 and a separate nub of size 1 * 2

How do you deal with a neighbor stealing?

And you are left with almost a square. One less than the square of side n.

n^2 - n + n - 1

What are some cute stories with your crush?

So, that’s a rectangle with sides 2 and 4.
