Chapter 1137
After a while, he finally asked, “Aren’t you pregnant?”
Maja genuinely had no clue what was going on in this man’s mind. How did he come to the conclusion that she was
pregnant, leading to a spectacle at the dinner table?
“Why would you tell the doctor that no matter how painful it is, you want to keep the baby if you aren’t pregnant?”
That was something that had happened over two weeks ago. Maja had nearly forgotten about the pregnant woman
she had encountered at the hospital,
let alone that lan was outside the door at that time
“lan, when did I ever say that to a doctor?”
“You said it at the hospital’s gynaecology department.”
Maja finally remembered, then gave him a weird look.
How did he know what she said to the doctor, and only heard half of it?
“Have you been stalking me?”
lan took a step back. I wasn’t stalking you. I just happened to pass by”
A grown man just happening to pass by the OB–GYN department
He couldn’t even come up with a decent excuse for his he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja lowered her eyelashes, very irritated by lan’s behavior.
Whenever he hurt her, he would find a way to make her feel sorry for him.
Tm not pregnant, so get rid of whatever you’ve been imagining.”
She tried to open the door to leave, but she heard Judith’s voice outside.
It was nothing but accusations and curses.
Maja paused and then advised, “We’ve been divorced. Even if you don’t like me, there’s no need to deliberately
bring Judith here to embarrass me. You know she’s got plenty of tricks up her sleeve, right?”
lan had nothing to say for a moment. Seeing that Maja was about to open the door, he quickly stepped forward and
held her from behind.
Maja stiffened, hearing his hoarse voice say, I haven’t been sleeping well lately!
Just like before he nuzzled his head into her neck, as if they were still a close couple
Maja’s rationality wavered briefly because of this move
lan always did this. After hurting her, he would appear weak and vulnerable, trying to soften her heart
He held her tighter, as if he could hold onto her forever this way.
But Maja was the most rational woman he had ever met, and she pushed him away.
“Your girlfriend is outside, Mr Raymond. We should go out
Then she opened the restroom door
Judith was waiting outside Seeing lan was indeed inside, she almost went mad with rage.
But she didn’t dare to lash out at lan, so she pointed her finger at Maja’s face
Maja how low can you get? You two broke up. Why are you dragging him here? Do you want everyone to know that
you’re seducing my boyfriend behind my back?
Maja didn’t look at her She simply walked past her back to the private room they’d been in
She faintly heard Judith timidly asking lan if he was unwell and why he looked so upset
Maja found it amusing That was just like lan Whenever he was unhappy, everyone else had to be unhappy too.
His emotions were too self–centered and everyone had to accommodate him
Like how he had come with Judith, but he didn’t show her any kindness
He was used to being superior, so he probably wouldn’t stoop to accommodate someone else, even if it was
someone he liked.
He said he liked Maja, but when he was angry, he would blurt out a stream of hurtful words.
He thought an apology would make everything fine, and they could go back to how things were
But words were like a krufe, leaving a scar wherever they cut
When Maja returned to the private room, Director Drew was still there Seeing her he let out a sigh of relief
“Ms. Pennyfeather, are you alright?”
When all three of them disappeared, even if he was blind, he would know there was some drama between them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMaja smiled at him
Tm fine, Director Drew. I really like the script for this project. It should be the first sci–fi movie in the country. I have
faith in you, and I hope the movie can be a bit longer, not just 120 minutes.”
Ms. Pennyfeather, that’s what I wanted to discuss with you, too. The final cut should be around 140 minutes.”
“Sounds good.”
Just as they finished their discussion, lan and Judith walked in.
lan sat across from her again.
Maja had lost her appetite after lan’s outburst, not wanting to eat anything. She just continued discussing the
remaining matters with Director Drew.
But the two crabs marinated in wine sitting in front of Director Drew were taken by lan and pushed in front of her
conspicuously
She paused, looked at him, then at Director Drew, who was also taken aback.
This was a business meeting Who cared about how much they ate? And would lan have never eaten marinated
crabs?
But now he got up to take the marinated crabs and put them in front of Maja
Without looking up, Maja knew the kind of look Judith was giving her
She looked calm on the outside, but inside she was speechless at lan’s behaviour.
