Chapter 764
lan lowered his head, looking at the woman who remained squatting down, feeling a bit chuffed.
A crowd finally sensed something was off, and Holden straightaway swung his cane at lan.
“You stepped on that little girl’s hand!”
Only then did lan lazily lift his shoe.
“Oh, sorry about that.”
His tone was calm, as if he had genuinely done nothing on purpose.
Maja mentally cursed him a hundred times over as a “bastard” before slowly standing up, trailing behind the
manager, ready to leave.
But Maureen decided to speak up at that moment.
“Hold it right there.”
Maja froze, hearing footsteps slowly approach from behind.
But at that moment, the elevator doors opened, and someone wheeled in a cake with candles.
lan casually pushed her back and said, “You take the cake to room 4001.”
That was Fitch’s room, and tonight was someone’s birthday among them. That’s why lan was here, as well as to
meet Holden and Maja without holding up either side.
With that push, Maja was pushed a bit further away.
She quickly walked over to hold onto the trolley’s handle, squeezed the other waiter away, and headed for room
4001.
All she wanted right now was to save her own skin.

But now that person had vanished, she couldn’t find her anymore.
Besides, Penny wouldn’t dress up as a waitress to come here
Jan lowered his head, his face expressionless, not wanting her to draw attention from the Raymond family.
That way, she could avoid getting into trouble.
With the Raymond family back in their room, lan told Holden, “I’ll go to 4001 first. Once Maja gets there, give me a
shout, and I’ll come meet her.”
Seeing his reasonable attitude, Holden nodded in agreement.
The reason for coming here tonight was to have Maja and Connie confront each other to see who was telling the
truth.
He didn’t favor anyone; he only stood on the right side.
When Maja pushed the trolley in, she felt a sense of relief.
There was another group of people inside, but this time it wasn’t those so–called rich boys; it was a group with a
serious air, looking like friends who hung out with
Fitch.
She lowered her head and passed the cake over.
Everyone else hurried for the birthday boy to blow out the candles.
Maja didn’t recognize these people. As she was about to leave, lan came in.
He pulled her over in one swoop, hugged her, and asked the others.
“Should I have the manager send some more girls up?”
Everyone was stunned. They’d never heard that lan had this kind of taste. Wasn’t he uninterested in women
before?
These guys were all lan and Fitch’s buddies from the army. They usually had no chance to come to Greenfield, but
this time they happened to be on collective leave, and it was someone’s birthday, so they decided to have a get–
together.
“lan, I never thought you’d have this kind of taste.”
Someone joked, but no one would really call for women, given the strict rules here.
When Maja heard lan’s words about arranging women, she froze, despising him from the bottom of her heart.
He was so disgusting, and his behavior was unbearable.
She thought lan hadn’t recognized her, so she thought that a common waitress could make his heart flutter, which
made her despise his so–called liking even more.
lan held her tight, his fingers touching her chin.
“Is that so? Maybe I just haven’t met a waitress as pretty as her before.”
Everyone burst into laughter, then started chatting about amusing past incidents.
As for the cake, none of these guys liked sweets, but Fitch got a piece for lan; at least lan didn’t mind desserts.
lan casually scooped up a small piece with a spoon and brought it to Maja’s lips.
Maja’s hat was still low, so they could only see her nose and below, but that was enough to tell she was a beauty.
She didn’t eat it because she didn’t like sweets.
“You’re not going to eat it?”
lan asked her immediately.

Mája turned her head away; she found him utterly annoying.
Soon, she saw him put the spoon back, and then he pulled her into his lap.
She was so scared she almost screamed, but realizing there were people around, she immediately shut up.
Her phone in her pocket rang; it should be Holden calling her over.
She struggled, but lan’s hand had already lifted her clothes, touching her skin.
She couldn’t believe it. How could this man be so frivolous?
“Let go of me!”
She whispered reproachfully, but just then the room door opened again, and in came Beck and Samuel.
The Sanders family had some connections with the army, so they’d met the birthday boy before. Knowing they
were both here, they came over to congratulate him. But when his gaze met lan’s, Beck felt sick to his stomach.
This guy was just in a fight over Penny, and now he was hitting on a waitress.
“Some people really are shameless, fancying countless women. No wonder Penny doesn’t see you.”
After saying this, Beck walked up to the birthday boy, raising his glass with a smile.
The man quickly stood up and said, “Mr. Sanders, I’m honored. Thank you for coming today.”
Beck just smiled, then his gaze fell on lan again.
“Mr. Raymond–ean flirt with other girls even when he’s injured; that’s tough.”
Their relationship wasn’t good to begin with, and now, with Beck’s words, lan’s expression immediately turned cold.
But his hands were still holding Maja tightly.
“Are you asking for trouble?”
Beck sneered, “I’m just mocking you. Like I said before, our issue is not yet settled.”
Samuel felt very uneasy. If these two started fighting again, it would definitely alarm the people next door, and no
one could help them then.
