Chapter 1159
Just as he had said, the next day while Maja was reviewing documents at work, she couldn’t help but recall the
scene of him stirring the porridge silently as she demanded explanations from him.
She had known long ago that lan had a knack for melting hearts.
Taking a deep breath, she called in Zoey.
“Mr Pennyfeather?”
“Zoey, could you help me find which brand of burn cream is the best? We need to send it over to the Raymond
Corporation.”
Without asking why. Zoey did as instructed.
When lan received the burn cream, he simply raised an eyebrow He didn’t use it, but put it in a desk drawer.
A morning passed and he didn’t text Maja.
Maja didn’t ask either, but he was in no hurry.
In the evening. Coral invited Maja for a meetup, saying she wanted to discuss the investment she had promised,
particularly the casting
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Maja met Coral at the BlueSky Bar, Coral was dressed in an exquisite ladies‘ suit.
They both looked like successful career women, but with different auras.
Coral seemed cold on the surface, but there was an underlying air of nonchalance.
Maja was cold inside and out, but her heart was the softest
She noticed the bruise on Coral’s wrist and lightly raised an eyebrow, “Did your brother do that?”
Hearing her brother Barton being mentioned, Coral rubbed her temples.
“I don’t know if it’s the pressure of being in the senior year. He’s been acting a bit strange lately. He told me he had
a great talk with you and promised to improve his grades
Leaning back, Coral shook her glass of wine, “What did you talk about with him, Ms. Penny feather?”
“Love affairs.”
Caught off guard, Coral paused and sighed, “How did I not think of this? He started school two years later than
others and had always been sensible. Maybe it’s his rebellious phase. he’s in love and being stubborn. I can
understand.”
Maja realized that she was completely oblivious to the boy’s troubles
“Do you have a boyfriend, Coral?”
I’m seeing someone recently”
Seemingly tired, Coral squinted her eyes, “I traveled abroad with him this time, but I came back earlier and left him
there.”
Maja didn’t want to pry into others‘ personal affairs. A young heart in love was like a dandelion in full bloom. It took
off with the slightest breeze. It was hard not to notice
It won’t take long before Coral realized, even if she was a little bit slow.
After agreeing on the lead actress, Cornelia, Coral announced her departure.
As Maja stood up to see her off, she bumped into fan and his group in the hallway
She paused, deliberately looking at his palm.
His fingers were slender and fair, with blisters ruining the beauty.
Ryan, Fitch and Phelps were among the group.
Ryan wanted to greet her, but hesitated in the presence of lan
Fitch wiped his lips. Maja thought they seemed a bit more vibrant than usual
But Fitch didn’t look at her. He took a step forward and walked away first
Ryan didn’t dare to stay either. Knowing Maja’s first love was her older cousin, he didn’t want to make a wrong

Coral’s gaze circled between lan and Maja, then she chuckled
“Ms. Pennyfeather, my car is outside I won’t disturb you any longer
Everyone knew about their relationship and tried to create opportunities for them.
Maja saw that there were no traces of the cream on his fingertips, “Didn’t you use the cream?”
lan glanced at his hand, said casually, “I did ”
She was at a loss for words, but then heard him ask, “Are you okay?”
Along with this question, fragments of the previous night flashed through her mind. Twice in the pool and then
against the wall of the changing room
His favorite position was to have her entirely dependent on him, her legs wrapped around his waist, leaving her
suspended in the air, giving him a sense of control
A blush crept onto her face and when she looked up again, lan was no longer in front of her,
