Chapter 221
Maja asked, “Why are you still here this late? Isn’t Leo already home? Why isn’t he helping you?”
If he were here, she wouldn’t be bullied by some middle-aged man, Susan’s cheeks turned a light shade of pink, and she quickly grabbed Maja’s hand
“Maja, come home with me. Your room is still there. Thanks for the last time you even called Leo back.”
She didn’t address Maja’s question,
Maja sighed, seeing her struggling with a pile of fruits all by herself.
She immediately started helping her push from behind.
“Did Leo and his wife make up after he got home?”
“No, they had a big fight. But it’s Leo’s fault. I told him to write an apology letter. His wife should forgive him soon ”
Maja didn’t say anything. She saw lan on the steps as they passed Riverside Haven with the cart.
lan was out of his suit, wearing just a white shirt, talking to Jeff
They hadn’t been there long and were about to attend a leadership gathering.
It was now eight o’clock in the evening, and people were waiting.
As Maja helped Susan push the cart, she met lan’s eyes.
He slightly raised his eyebrows, his gaze falling on the fruits in the cart.
There were oranges, grapes, and bananas, all neatly arranged.
Maja thought she was seeing things. How could she see lan in Crystalbrook Valley?
She straightened up and saw him under the lights of Riverside Haven; all his sharp features seemed to melt in the soft moonlight.
He didn’t have the cold seriousness he had at work; his shirt sleeves were rolled up a bit, it seemed tonight’s gathering didn’t require much formality, so he looked relaxed.
“Mr. Raymond?”
She called out, a bit dazed.
Ian stood on the steps, Maja a few degrees below, and after a moment of thought, she said, “Mr. Raymond, would you like an orange?”
As soon as she said this, she regretted it. She quickly waved her hands, trying to say she was just joking. After all, how could lan eat such cheap fruit?
But lan walked down the steps and really picked up an orange from the cart
His fingers were long and perfect, making the orange look a bit ugly.
Holding the orange, he asked her, “When did you get here?”
“I just got here not long ago.”
When Susan saw lan, she disappeared as if into thin air, not daring to speak.
Seeing several leaders in suits not far away, she knew this was the important person from the last time when the car broke down.
Ordinary people couldn’t mess with him.
But now, Maja was talking to such a person, and she was so natural.
Susan quickly grabbed a bag and quietly filled it with oranges, handing it to lan
She didn’t know how to flatter people, so she just acted
lan politely said, “One is enough, thank you.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
