Chapter 715
lan thought to himself, “Man, I really wasted my effort being nice to her, gifted her that huge piece of land, now
who knows how much it’s worth. She never once gave me a gift, but she was giving expensive things to other guys.
She’s heartless, really,
lan stared blankly ahead
For the next while, lan’s mood noticeably dropped. He and Maja casually bought some stuff and then headed back
to Greenfield Gardens.
Maja picked up a few Christmas lights, unsure where to hang them.
lan stood to the side, his enthusiasm visibly reduced, seeming not so keen on decorating the house anymore.
Seeing him like that, Maja thought he didn’t like the lights, so she had the servants put them away.
lan frowned, hearing her order the servants to put them away, he immediately stood up.
“Why are we putting them away?”
1 thought you didn’t like them”
“Who said that?”
He grabbed a light and pulled over a folding ladder from the side.
Maja, worried that he’d fall, quickly went to steady the ladder.
After lan hung up the lights, he asked her, “How does it look?”
Indeed, it made the entire villa come alive,

She answered sincerely.
lan’s lips curled up in a little smile.
He then hung up a few more lights, moving the ladder under another part of the eave, hanging four lights in a row.
With over a dozen lights left, Maja pointed at the Christmas tree outside, suggesting,
“Hang them on the tree.”
And so, a tree was adorned with over a dozen small lights, glowing, it was pretty.
lan looked at the tree, a warmth in his eyes.
At that moment, Maja brought over another bag, which had a dozen more lights, they decided to hang them on
another Christmas tree.
“Mr. Raymond, this time let me do it.”
Maja climbed up the ladder herself, lan quickly steadied her.
“Be careful.”
Maja had just hung up the last light and was about to climb down when she slipped, scaring lan half to death.
He quickly caught her, angrily saying, “Didn’t I tell you to be careful? Why did you insist on climbing up to hang the
lights? This is a man’s job!”
Maja wasn’t hurt, she wriggled free off his hold and looked at her handiwork.
Looked good, both trees were perfectly symmetrical.
It was still daytime, even if the lights were on, the effect wouldn’t be visible.
Ian led her inside and asked, “Did you twist your ankle?”
“No.”
They didn’t have anything else to do that day, so lan found a TV show, planning to watch it together with her.
Just then, his phone rang, it was his father, Steve Raymond,
lan wasn’t close to his father; he’d even forgotten what it was like to be with him.
He wrapped one arm around Maja, answering the call with the other.
“Tan, come home for dinner tonight, even if it’s just to show your face, let me see if you’re okay.”
Faced with his family’s request, lan felt it hard to refuse.
So, he agreed.
After hanging up, he told Maja about it.
“I’ve arranged for Jeff to take you to the restaurant I’ve booked tonight. There, you can watch the fireworks, it’s our
first Christmas together. I’ll head home first, then go straight to the restaurant from there.”
“Okay”
lan glanced at the time, it was still early.
He led Maja upstairs, not to watch TV anymore, but directly into the bedroom.
Maja could tell his intentions immediately.
As she was settled onto the couch in the study, she quickly scanned the room she’d designed, and before she could

Whether it was before or after his amnesia, lan’s preferences hadn’t changed, he loved kissing her, often leaving
her breathless.
Despite that, lan was still neatly dressed as he said, “You looked tired last night, we’ll just kiss.”
Maja was indeed tired, but she couldn’t resist his kisses.
“Don’t.”
But his kiss had already descended, gently kissing every inch of her skin.
Maja looked at the man in front of her somewhat dazed, reaching out to cup his face, wanting to look at him more
closely.
Every woman would do that.
“Penny?”
He called out her name, but she didn’t quite hear,
Not until she felt something in her hair and reached out to touch it, a hair clip.
lan would buy hair clips for women?
Turned out, despite his anger at the mall that morning, when he saw this diamond–studded hair clip, he couldn’t
resist buying it for her.
This was a Christmas present.
This might be the least conspicuous gift he’d given her, because its design was so beautiful, studded with diamonds,
only costing twenty thousand dollars, he even felt a little embarrassed giving this cheap gift to her.
But at some point, he was deeply moved by the design.
This was the first time Maja received such a cute gift.
And it was at this special moment, put on by him personally.
