Chapter 701
Maja was taken aback. She was about to reach out for the handkerchief when lan pulled her behind him and glared at the man.
Who knew who he was, strutting around with a mask on at such an event?
Both men had a strong presence, standing off against each other in front of everyone, with Sharon completely ignored.
lan held Maja’s hand tightly, his gaze locked on the mask.
But the masked man just looked at her, taking her in with a slight appraisal.
Maja felt a sense of familiarity with him, but when she wanted to delve deeper, he merely nodded slightly and left.
lan was seething inside, asking her in a low voice.
“Who the hell is this guy?!”
He thought she had brought a lover in front of him.
Maja shook her head, “I don’t know him.”
She really didn’t know the man, and she thought he was just a kind bystander who had offered her a handkerchief.
“Don’t know him? Strangers will offer you handkerchiefs? Strangers will look at you like that?!”
His lips were close to her ear, his voice filled with anger, “Maja, don’t you dare question me again.”
His words were said through gritted teeth.
Maja truly felt a bit wronged when she heard Sharon’s voice again.
“lan, she got me wet. Are you just going to let it slide?”
Sharon was pissed off again, seeing herself being ignored.
“Sharon, didn’t you get her wet too?”
lan’s tone was indifferent, holding Maja’s hand, “I have something to discuss with Maja. We’ll leave first.”
He took Maja’s hand and walked towards a corner.
Sharon was humiliated that night, and she felt her whole body trembling.
“Fine, you just wait. lan, you’ve disregarded our families‘ relationship for a woman.”
She didn’t even know lan had lost his memory. That’s why he was so indifferent to these relationships.
He only remembered the relationships he had learned recently.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t even know who Sharon was.
They went into the bathroom, lan pushed Maja against the door, holding her waist tightly, and kissed her passionately.
The deep kiss wiped off all of Maja’s lipstick, and her lips were back to their natural color.
The hall was buzzing, saying that lan had a lover outside.
And he even had a falling out with the Haskins family for this lover.
Everyone was unaware that the two main characters were hiding in the bathroom.
lan lifted her and kissed her until she could hardly breathe.
The surrounding air was filled with the smell of alcohol. Although it was not strong, it was intoxicating enough.
There was a knock on the door from outside. Someone carefully asked, “Is anyone there? Who locked the bathroom door?”
Maja pushed him away, wiping her lips.
lan also let her go, his lips thin, the corner of his mouth stained a little red.
Maja gently wiped it with her finger, slowly cleaning the red traces on his mouth.
He just looked at her, and after a while, he asked, “Why are you involved with Sunshine Realty?”
“I need to buy a building for employee accommodation.”
lan raised an eyebrow, and he didn’t ask her what she needed it for. Instead, he played with her fingers, “If you accompany me tonight, I’ll have Jeff sign the house over to you tomorrow.”
Maja was a bit surprised, thinking she hadn’t made her needs clear, “I need over a hundred rooms, preferably around 60 square meters. The project that Sunshine Realty is selling recently fits my needs.”
“You just need to please me this month, and I’ll give you the transfer documents tomorrow.”
While she knew lan was a shortcut, she didn’t expect the shortcut to be this quick.
She kept her head down and didn’t speak. Ian hugged her again, but the knocking continued from outside; he frowned and let her go.
“I have to meet some partners later; if you encounter anyone from the Haskins family, stay away from them. I’ve told Powell, just find a quiet place and wait for me; don’t cause any more trouble.”
She nodded.
When the door opened, the waiting–woman saw lan and covered her mouth in surprise.

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....
