lan nodded not giving her a second glance Maja ocidentally bumped into a woman carrying a cup of
coffee as she left the office Ma stepped aside to make way, but the woman, dressed extravagantly with
a full face of makeup, deliberately upped Maja causing the coffee to spill all over her light colored
professional outfit
Frowning Majalooked at the woman who clearly lacked acting skills. The woman mised her eyebrows,
pretending to be surprised, and covered her mouth
Oh my Im so sorry Mass let me find some wipes to clean it up for you”
Maja glanced at the woman’s ID badge and saw her name was bans Shepard A member of the

Dana expected Maja to brush off the incident pothely after her insincere apology However, Maja stood
her ground and smiled
“Sure please find some wipes to clean it up
Danas expression changed thinking she might have misheard She had purposely fetched a dark
coffee, anticipating it would not easily wipe off Mad’s clothes once spilled. She hadn’t expected this
response Nervouth. Dana slammered. The wipes might not be sufficient
Well then find an atomative solution. Or perhaps you could order a suitable outfit for me online. I have
important work to do and no time to go home and change”
Danas face darkened Did this woman lack social awareness?
Onlookers observed the spectacle Some were entertained by the situation, while others whispered
amongst themselves A new intem, Dana displayed arrogance due to her connection with the Shepard
family.
Rumors oculated that her cousin, Carlene, was lan’s first love and someone he had never stopped
thinking about Danaoften dropped Carlene’s name to bolster her own confidence.
Dana mered. 71 was just a spilled cup of coffee. I already apologized. Aren’t you overreacting? Do you
even realize that the man you just met is my future cousin–in–law?”
Maja found it amusing As far as she knew, the Shepard family was relatively unknown, at least among
the prominent local families she was familiar with.
However the encountered some past drama involving lan and Carlene in her research. They were high
school classmates, but the reasons for their relationship remained a mystery to Maja. Nevertheless,

She raised her hand to slap Maja but Maja swiftly grabbed her hand, exerting enough force to make
Dana wince
Let go‘ Where’s security? Where’s the security on this floor?”
Just as Dana shouted for help, the door to lan’s office unexpectedly opened. Startled, Maja instinctively
released Dana’s hand, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the floor..
Maa innocently looked at Dana as if to say. This has nothing to do with me.”
Dana seethed with anget her chest heaving, as she turned her gaze towards lan.
“Cousin in law…“.
Those words created an awkward atmosphere. Many people were still unaware of lan’s marriage, and
in their eyes, he remained single. Dana’s address implied that the rumors about lan’s lingering feelings
for Carlene were true, and he had been waiting for her return all these years.
