NovelEnglishChapter 167 What a coincidence.
This was seriously a huge coincidence.
The coincidence shocked Maja a little.
Looked like she'd be bumping into Ryan a lot from now on.
And Ryan was lan’s younger brother.
Ryan seemed equally surprised, just strolling in.
“Penny, you lived here?” Maja nodded, with a smile on her face, “Ryan, you brought your girlfriend over?” Ryan, unabashed, wrapped his arm around the girl's waist, planting a kiss on her cheek.

Now that his real girlfriend was standing right there, Maja worried about the day when Ms. Raymond would come knocking, which was bound to stir up trouble.
But then again, Ms. Raymond probably wouldn't be showing up here.
After all, Ryan has always been generous, buying houses for his girlfriend wasn’t something he did once or twice. If Ms. Raymond really wanted to investigate, she probably wouldn't know where to start.
With that in nid, Maja felt relieved.
Seeing her cleaning alone, Ryan asked.
“Where's your husband? | remember that this house wasn't sold before, you must have just bought it recently, right? Just moved in with your husband?” Maja felt a pang of anxiety, her head starting to throb.
Yes, she just moved in today, but the house across had been sold a while ago, it was Ryan who bought
it first.
Even if Maja wanted to lie and say she bought it a long time ago, that lie was too clumsy. So how was she going to explain the husband situation? The girl standing next to Ryan, holding his arm, had been hostile to Maja from the start, because this woman seemed to know- Ryan well.
Every woman who was familiar with Ryan was always an ex— girlfriend.
She was instantly on guard, but hearing Ryan's words, her guard dropped. Turns out she really was Ryan's friend.
She breathed a sigh of relief, extending her hand with a smile.
“Hello, I'm Rita. | think I've seen you somewhere before?” Maja did feel a sense of familiarity when she saw Rita's face.
Until Rita's eyes light up. “Oh, you're Mr. Raymond's designer! | work at the front desk of the Raymond
Corporation. | saw you when you first came to the Raymond Corporation, but it wasn't me who

Maja fell silent, feeling like she couldn't escape the world of the Raymond family no matter what.
She felt rather helpless, but still politely shook hands.
“Hello, | am indeed Mr. Raymond's designer.” “So you're married. You're really beautiful.” Once the girl knew Maja wasn’t Ryan's ex-girlfriend, she started complimenting her.
Ryan was also very accommodating, so he asked, “Can we take a tour?” “Yes, but | didn't design the decoration, it was left by the previous owner.” “But the decoration is not bad.” Since Maja had just moved in and was still cleaning, Ryan didn’t want to be too intrusive. After a quick look, he took Rita next door.
Maja continued cleaning by herself until the afternoon. After feeding Coco, she received a message from Neil asking whether she and lan had set off yet.
Maja rubbed her temples.
lan, lan, her father’s eyes were always on lan.
Where was she supposed to find lan now? It seemed like she might have to bail on the Pennyfeather family dinner tonight. She stroked Coco's head, completely unaware that Neil had a hunch of her rebelliousness, so he called Holden instead. Holden liked Maja and respected the Pennyfeather family.
When he heard that dinner was ready, he personally called lan.
At that time, lan was still in a meeting. He had a crucial dinner ‘engagement tonight related to the acquisition case he’s been preparing for recently.
