Chapter 304
She turned around and said to lan, “lan, I’m going to bounce.”
lan nodded and headed over to Fitch.
Fitch was the heir to the Haskins family, which specialized in breeding arms manufactures. They were directly controlled by the military and were also a top–tier noble family.
Fitch was gloomy and irritable and didn’t have many friends, but lan and Tyler Bennitt happened to be his buddies.
lan sat next to him, and Fitch snorted.
“I have no idea why you’re so into her.”
Tyler nudged Fitch lightly with his elbow.
“He’s not like you, mate. He doesn’t just write off all women. lan’s known Carlene since they were kids. They’re like peas in a pod.”
Fitch cracked a small grin, silently swirling his glass of red wine.
lan didn’t argue with Fitch. He scanned the room and didn’t spot Penny. Where on earth had Connie taken her?
Maja finished checking out the seafood with Connie and headed to the entertainment facilities.
Swimming pool, bungee jumping, shooting range… you name it, and they had it. These places were hopping with people.
This gathering was for the young and free, no strings attached.
The seafood display area started to fill up with chefs, scattering people across all areas.
Connie finally took Maja to the dessert area, a ten–meter space filled with sweets.
Mia throws these shindigs every year; it could be any season. The Raymond family all previously employed these chefs. Foreign Michelin chefs cost more than athletes; only a handful are famous. But damn, they’re good.”
Anyone else might have sounded like they were showing off, but Connie was just telling it like it was.
Maja couldn’t let Connie’s enthusiasm go to waste, so she tried a little pastry.
She had been walking around the seafood display for an hour, and Connie dragged her around; she was beaten.
Connie received a phone call, “Penny, a friend of mine is looking for me; just hang out in the desert area for a bit; I’ll circle back for you.”
Maja nodded, she needed a breather.
Once Connie left, she went to the small garden next to the dessert area and sat on a swing.
The swing was loaded with decorations, completely hiding her. That’s how she overheard something she should not have.
“Does this drug really work?”
“Sandy, chill. This is the most expensive drug overseas right now. Once lan takes it, he’ll lose it and make a move on any chick.”
“Good, tonight’s the perfect opportunity.”
Maja stiffened. She recognized that voice.
It was Sandy. Maja had run into her a few times before; they weren’t exactly pals. Was she at the party too?
Looks like Carlene coming back really put the squeeze on some people, to the point of thinking about drugging lan.
Maja stayed put, waiting until their footsteps faded before standing up, wondering if she should warn lan.
-She couldn’t just stand by and let him get into trouble.
Plus, most of Greenfield’s rich young folks were here. If lan was caught with Sandy, it could be the end for him and Carlene.
Maja hurried ahead, but as she turned the corner, she bumped into a group of people.
Dana was so stunned that she had a headache. Seeing Maja, she was instantly pissed.
“Are you blind?”
Maja stopped; in front of her stood Dana and Carlene, both in bikinis, ready to hit the pool.
Behind them were a few guys in swimming trunks, two of them were Tyler and Samuel Brown.

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....
