NovelEnglishChapter 198
Maja really had no clue if Neil had called Holden again. She was just feeling wiped out.
She had heard now that lan had gone to the Pennyfeather family that night and even pressured them.
He probably loathed his wife in name only even more now. Her father always did things that made her
cringe.
But Maja knew better than to show her discontent with her father in front of Tricia, who would be
thrilled.
“Alright, got it.”
She walked past Tricia, about to leave.
Tricia couldn’t believe her reaction.
Her relationship with Neil had always been tense. How could she not blame Neil now that she knew he
had contacted Holden behind her back?
Tricia was already in poor health. On top of that, she had been here waiting since four in the morning.
She had waited a whole two hours.
Seeing Maja’s reaction now, her emotions exploded.

She said this because she was sure Maja was not with lan.
But Maja’s next words threw her for a loop.
“I know, I was in the same room with him last night.”
This comment, mundane as it was, struck Tricia like a sharp knife.
Tricia was momentarily speechless, standing there in a daze.
As she saw Maja about to leave, she blurted out in a panic. “How could you!”
Realizing her tone was too harsh, she softened her voice, “How could you and Mr. Raymond share a
room. He doesn’t like you. Sis, you don’t have to treat yourself this way for the Pennyfeather family. I
know you’re just avoiding to go against dad.
Maja seemed puzzled. She feigned confusion, “lan and I are married, isn’t it natural for us to share a
room? And dad’s right. So many women in Greenfield would kill for a chance to marry lan. Since I got
the opportunity, shouldn’t I do everything I can to keep him?”
Every word of hers was like a stab to Tricia.
Tricia’s cheeks were flushed with anger, her breathing shaky.
Maja had already gone to get her food.
The sight of her carrying two portions made Tricia’s face even more sour.
But to keep Maja from suspecting anything, she forced a smile.
“So you and Mr. Raymond are really close”
Maja just smiled. Her smile seemed to say, it’s all a given.
The calmer she was, the more uneasy Tricia felt.
Once she was gone, Tricia slowly unclenched her fist, her palm was already covered in blood.
Her heart was also filled with rage.
She had to come up with a plan. She couldn’t let Maja and lan continue to be together
Tricia coughed hard in anger, she could barely stand.
She wished she could tear Maja apart with her gaze. But reality was, she could only helplessly watch
as Maja entered the elevator.
Maja could share a bed with lan and have breakfast together.
She could only spend a lot of time waiting in places where he often appeared. Every time she could
catch a glimpse of him, she felt the world brighten.
How could Maja have such an honor!
She was absolutely livid.

Maja had already taken the food to the room.
tan was still looking at the documents. The light in the room shone on him like a golden cloak.
As an artist, Maja was inspired again. She really wanted to capture this scene.
lan’s physique was the most perfect she had ever seen. She believed every artist who saw him would
not be able to resist taking hundreds of photos of him for study and painting.
After putting the food on the coffee table, she was about to tidy up the documents. lan happened to
reach for the same set, and their Itands touched.
lan stiffened, and looked up at her.
Maja quickly let go. But because her movement was too sudden, the milk she brought over was
knocked over, spilling onto the documents.
The milk soaked the papers and some flowed onto the floor.
lan’s expression changed.
Maja knew she was in trouble, and bit her lip in embarrassment.

She looked quite pitiful.
lan originally had something to say, but it got stuck in his throat, and he couldn’t say a word.
