Chapter 371
For the Raymond family, she seemed to always be some sort of bargaining chip.
lan paused, whispering softly in her ear.
“What can that useless husband of yours offer you?”
Maja lowered her head, upset by his derogatory remark about her husband.
lan’s hand slid to her waist.
“Penny, have you made up your mind?”
His words were like a trap, enticing and gentle, trying to lure her in.
Maja didn’t respond, and he assumed her silence was a yes, so he lifted her up, kissing her while putting her on the clean table.
Maja was breathless from his kiss, and then she felt a tingling pain in her neck.
He was marking his territory.
lan had a strong desire to dominate in this aspect.
But then, Nathan’s voice came from outside the door.
“Penny, I saw you come back just now. Did you forget something?”
A plan flashed in Maja’s mind, and she quickly pushed lan away.
She got off the table and buttoned up her unbuttoned clothes, her fingers slightly trembling.
lan’s face turned gloomy, and then he laughed lightly.
There was a hint of mockery in his laugh.
Maja couldn’t lift her head nor dared to look at him… After buttoning the last button, she wanted to leave.
But lan pulled her back, slowly pinning her hair behind her ear.
“I’ll give you time to think, but I’m a clean freak, don’t let him touch you while you’re considering.”
Maja stiffened, her mind a mess. She remained silent.
After a few seconds, she finally asked, “Mr. Raymond, do you like me?”
Admitting his feelings at this point would mean complete defeat.
“Penny, you’re married. I’m married too. This is just a game for adults, that’s all.”
Maja’s face turned pale, and her eyelashes trembled violently.
At this moment, she felt utterly humiliated.

It was as if her life was a toy to be played with.
lan was still somewhat moved, especially hearing Nathan’s voice outside, as if he was about to come in, which gave him a secret thrill.
He leaned down and kissed her lightly on the lips.
“Penny, a smart person should know how to choose.”
Maja opened her mouth, but no words came out.
She quietly opened the door and closed it.
So Nathan didn’t see what happened inside.
His taste of wine still lingered in her mouth, that rich and mellow flavor.
Just as Nathan was about to ask her something, seeing her eyes, he said nothing.
When they got outside, he said, “I’ll walk you home.”
At this point, Maja’s mind was in chaos. She needed to go home and rest, so she nodded.
As soon as lan came out, he saw her get into Nathan’s car.

Why are there no updates yet, Author. We've all been waitibg for quite a while now. Please, update soon, Author. Thanks....
Author, my thoughts on the book. When are You going to write on Cornelia and Omar Casson's romance? You made no mention, describing in detail how Maja and Uan's white wedding ceremony went. Also, you didn't write on Carol's baby delivery. What about Tyler's romance. Is there closure on Phelps Herrington being truly certified dead, so also his twin brother? Dylan's research institute "little girl", what became of her and Dylan's romance? Beck's blind dates, what were the results, is he married now, so also Dylan to his "little girl"? Why hasn't Ian's father- Steven come forward to meet Maja's parents as the in-laws meeting each other especially with his supposed past with Lillian; Maja's mother. I hope I won't remain curious for too long on the aforementioned issues, Author. Thanks for doing a good job on Zoey and Fitch's romance, though. Kudos....
