Chapter 543
Exhausted, Maja felt like a limp dough, her body unwilling to move even a finger. In her drowsy state, she saw him wearing only a pair of dress pants, a shirt in
hand
The shirt was a bit crumpled, and his back was marked with scratches she’d made.
Outside, the daylight was already bright. He glanced back at her, seemed to say something
Was he off to a meeting? Or something else?
Whatever he said, she didn’t catch it.
She watched as he tossed the wrinkly shirt into the trash and reappeared in a fresh one, probably delivered by Jeff.
By the time lan went downstairs and headed for the car, Jeff was already waiting for him.
He seemed rather pleased with himself as he said to Jeff,
“Pick out a few pairs of women’s high heels, about a size 36.”
Jeff had never been asked to do such a thing, plus he didn’t have a girlfriend..
To add to the confusion, there were just too many types of heels, open–toed, pointed, strapped…
He drove to the Raymond Corporation, and once in the office, he brought up a few pictures and asked, “Boss, what type of high heels do you
That’s when lan realized just how many styles of high heels there were, something he’d never paid attention to before.
Recalling the pair she wore last night and the visual impact it had, he didn’t hesitate to choose a pair of pointed, strap heels.
“Let’s go with these.”
Jeff gave him a look, thinking, the boss really can’t hide his feelings.
He cleared his throat a bit, “Boss, how many pairs do you want?”
“Two for now, in silver. The straps should be soft, the shoe covered in silver diamonds, need to be flashy enough.”
“For the black ones, pick a delicate pair that would accentuate her fair skin.”
Jeff blushed a bit, thinking, you seem to know what you’re doing, then he coughed awkwardly.
“Alright, I’ll arrange for the shoes to be air freighted from Europe.“.
These were the newest styles, there was no stock in the country.
lan was very satisfied, a subtle smile on his lips.
want?”
Since the moming, he’d been feeling like there was a balloon swelling inside him, so much so that when Tyler came to see him, he felt the office was filled with
cheer.
He’d never seen him this happy, even after landing multi–billion deals.
“The movie starts filming tomorrow, just giving you a heads up.”
The mention of the movie reminded him of Shawn Walsh.
Tyler sidled over, smirking.
“Phelps told me, you even had him come to the hotel to treat Penny’s hand. Clearly, you have feelings for her, but she hasn’t accepted them.”
lan pushed him away, looking annoyed.
“Do you two ever stop gossiping?”
Tyler laughed, “We don’t care about other people’s business, but when my buddy sets his sights on a married woman, I can’t help but watch the drama unfold.”
The last thing lan wanted to hear was “married woman.”
He put down the papers in his hand, remained silent for a while before asking, “So, what’s Shawn’s personal life like?”
“So, you’re starting to investigate your competition? And you are saying you don’t like her. Man, if I were you, I’d go after her. As long as Penny isn’t blind, she’ll know who to choose.”
Tyler stopped suddenly, changing the subject.
“Are you not pursuing her because you’re married yourself and don’t want to put her in an awkward position?”
lan squirmed a bit, feeling seen through.
“I just don’t like her that much yet, we are just benefiting each other.”
Tyler was speechless. For the first time, he realized that some men could speak so decisively.
“Were you just out of her bed this morning?”
lan didn’t respond.
Tyler squinted slightly, “You didn’t actually go to her and her husband’s new house last night, did you?”
lan lowered his head, looking at the documents in his hand.

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....
