Chapter 309
Maja felt Connie’s eyes burning into her neck, which was kind of weird.
“You got something on your mind?”
Connie quickly shifted her gaze.
“Nah, how you feeling?”
Did you cry last night?
lan actually…
Maja felt a bit puzzled, then chuckled.
“I’m a little under the weather, but I’ll survive.”
Connie blushed even more.
“Good to hear.”
After Maja shut the door, changed into fresh clothes, and stepped out, Connie was still waiting.
They walked together to the other side of the hallway, where a woman was tightly wrapped in clothing, held by a bodyguard, surrounded by a crowd.
Her legs were shaking. Clearly, she had gone through some stuff last night.
The onlookers were buzzing.
“Never thought she’d pull a stunt like this.”
“She must be Penny, always leading men on, even the bodyguards. Heard they hooked up in Carlene’s room, which pissed Carlene off.”
“Too bad lan’s still in a meeting and clueless about this.”
The woman’s head was tightly wrapped in the bodyguard’s jacket, trembling non–stop. Carlene, hearing the chatter, frowned.
Last night, she had Dana bribe the waiter to spike Penny’s drink.
After Penny downed the spiked drink, she had Dana tail her, hoping to catch Penny’s drunken antics on tape.
But Dana never returned, and Carlene spent the night somewhere else with the socialites.
When she woke up and returned to her room, she heard moaning from a man and woman inside. Looks like they had spent the whole night there.
She put on a show of being shocked, and soon enough, everyone on the third floor gathered outside her door.
Inside the room, Dana, still harassed, felt like crying. She only wanted to tail Penny but ended up in this room with a drugged–up bodyguard who wouldn’t listen to a word she said.
Hearing the gossip outside, she was scared to death. She was toast if people found out she was here, especially in front of so many people.
She looked terrible, but then she heard Carlene’s voice outside.
“Is that Penny in there? You seemed off last night. Are you okay?”
Then everyone started talking about Penny.
They all knew Penny was at the pool last night, but then she seemed to have left. They thought she had left the mansion early, not knowing she was here with a bodyguard.
“She’s got no shame, even though she’s a well–known designer; lan probably won’t dare to let her design his house now.”
“Among all these rich youngsters, she chose a bodyguard. Suits her reputation.”
“No one else would touch her with a ten–foot pole.”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Dana had come up with a plan. She quickly ordered the sober bodyguard to cover her head with his clothing, ready to
make a run for it.

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....
