Chapter 370
Samuel didn’t want the atmosphere to get too tense, so he quickly started shooting the breeze with
Judson, making the vibes more chill.
Maja got up halfway through, unable to stand the bickering between these two dudes, feeling like she
got dragged into it.
She pretended to go to the loo but just needed to take a breather in the corridor.
Nathan was just down the hall, saw her coming out, and immediately came over to greet her.
“Penny, here’s some hangover cure. Fancy a sip?”
Maja hadn’t really been drinking, and she just had a cup in the suite across the way.
She took the hangover cure from his hand to keep her head clear.
Nathan scratched the back of his head, a bit embarrassed.
“Owing my promotion to you, really, don’t know how to thank you.”
Maja finished the hangover cure, ready to ask him to do as she requested when she saw someone
coming from the corner of her eye.
It was lan.
lan claimed he was going out for a smoke, now walking over with a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.
Maja quickly gave Nathan a wink.
Nathan immediately got the hint and quickly started putting on a show of how he treats other women.
“Baby, where should we hit after this?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe said this just as lan got to them, but lan didn’t stop. He just walked past them to the smoking area
on the balcony.
Nathan was scared shitless when he said this.
”
Of course, he hoped he could have something going on with Maja. If Maja fancied him, he could cut 30
years of his struggle!
But be knew she wasn’t into it.
If only he had the looks of Felix Brown.
Maja didn’t expect Nathan to pull it off so well, and she even felt that when lan walked between them,
his aura was so cold it could cut.
It felt like her skin and heart were stabbed.
The door to the smoking area closed.
Maja breathed a sigh of relief and gave Nathan a signal she was going back first.
Nathan nodded. He didn’t dare to stay longer.
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination. Felt like Mr. Raymond had something against him.
Sometimes men understand men better.
lan was leaning his elbow on the railing in the swirling smoke. His expression was even colder.
His gaze was like a cold star, casually flicking ashes off his fingers.
His eyes were deep and cold.
This small balcony was very similar to the one at the villa. That night she was sitting on his lap, calling
him honey; the scene was still fresh in her mind.
His fingers holding the cigarette tightened slightly, irritably stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray.
But now, she and her husband were comforting each other behind the thick glass door.
It seemed like he was just a thief who took a bite of her cake under the cover of the night.
Interesting.
lan’s eyes became a bit dangerous.
Then what was her previous constant approach?
He hated being toyed with. If he really wanted to eat, then have a few more bites. Once he’s sick of it,
he definitely wouldn’t want to eat.
-He lit another cigarette.
When the dinner party was about to end, lan came back.
Maja smelled the faint scent of smoke on him.
Everyone was ready to leave, but he was the last one to leave, insisting on asking Jeff to take Carlene
away first.
Maja planned to go to Nathan to act naturally.
But her phone rang at this time, she picked it up and saw it was a message from lan.
[Come back.]
Maja immediately felt he wanted to talk about ByteWise Technologies.
Unnoticed, she got back in the elevator and returned to the suite,
Everything in the suite had been cleaned up, and the table had even been disinfected again. Talk about
efficiency.
Maja saw lan sitting in his original spot, his delicate fingers slowly spinning his phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Ian.”
She called out, standing still..
lan glanced at her, put away his phone, stood up, and walked towards her.
He walked up to her, bent down slightly, looking carefully at her face.
Maja was a bit sweaty because she had rushed up. Her eyes were confused but clear looking at him.
Her eyes were bright, making her look very delicate.
At this moment, they were very close. Maja was surrounded by his breath, feeling a bit breathless.
Her heart suddenly beat faster.
Just as she was about to ask something, he lifted her chin gently.
He bent down and kissed her without hesitation.
Maja was startled, her eyes wide open; just as she was about to push him away, his kiss moved to her
ear.
“I’ll help you deal with Knox.”
No need to say more. They were adults, and there was no need to play innocent at this time.
Maja’s fingers tightened slightly, turned her head, her lips trembling a bit.
“lan, I’m married.”
Her heart was in turmoil, her mind a blank.
Although she knew she needed to solve the ByteWise Technologies issue as soon as possible, she
never thought that this kind of deal was what lan wanted.
The pride that surged into her heart at that moment was like a sharp thorn stabbing into her heart.
