Chapter 446
“lan, go and sniff around the Shepard family. Carlene is the only name that springs to mind right now. You can also dig into the rest of the Shepard family. The item might not be conspicuous; maybe it was passed to others in the Shepard family.”
lan had actually asked Carlene before, but there was a time when she had a high fever for two days, so her answer was that she might have received something from Eric, but she couldn’t remember.
“Gotcha, I’ll ask her when I go back to Greenfield.”
Fitch squinted. “Are you not in Greenfield right now?”
“I’m on a business trip.”
Hearing that it was a business trip, Fitch didn’t probe further.
Hanging up the phone, lan glanced at the time. It was almost five in the morning. It looked like sleep was off the table for tonight.
He returned to bed, laid down for a brief moment, then got up.
The staff had already reported his arrival to the person in charge at Crystalbrook Valley.
Since five in the morning, those in charge had been waiting in the lobby, not coming to bother him.
As soon as lan got up, one of the leaders approached him immediately.
“Mr. Raymond, with your sudden visit to Crystalbrook Valley, is there a new requirement for the project? We’re all here; we could discuss it.”
“We were planning to contact you. An hour’s drive from here is a beach, where the climate is pleasant during the winter. It could go along with this tourism project. Are you interested, Mr. Raymond?”
lan raised an eyebrow. Seeing the anticipation of the leaders, he decided to take a look.
He returned to his room to wake Maja.
When Maja came out, the leaders‘ expressions immediately changed. One of them recognized Maja; her cousin and his son had a fight last time, and he gave her a face.
But now Maja appeared with Mr. Raymond, and it seemed they were sharing a room.
They were both easy on the eyes.
The leaders suddenly felt awkward. They had seen this kind of situation before; people with a bit of power were more promiscuous than the big bosses. But they didn’t expect that a guy like lan would have these desires..
Maja’s eyes scanned the room. She felt a bit nervous when she saw Bob and Daly Elston.
And Daly was pretty shocked to see her.
Maja averted her gaze and heard lan say, “Want to go check it out with me?”,
Maja didn’t refuse.
She and lan got in the car, and the leaders, knowing Daly was Maja’s uncle, had Bob drive to avoid awkwardness.
Maja and lan got into the car without saying a word.
Bob was watching them through the rearview mirror the whole time.
Maja truly didn’t expect things to turn out like this; everyone probably thought she and lan were involved, which, in reality, they were.
When lan saw her zoning out at the window, he pulled her over and held her.
Maja struggled a bit and nervously looked forward.
“Mr. Raymond.”

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....
