Chapter 827
The cold wind cooled her face a bit, making her feel much better.
Was lan doing this on purpose?
Purposely making her feel troubled, then getting down to work himself.
Was he getting back at her for ignoring him while she was busy working just now?
She frowned and couldn’t help but look at him.
But his expression was serious as if there was really an emergency at work.
Maja was a little depressed so she lowered her head, trying to focus on her work, but she kept looking at his hands.
She liked lan’s hands, and they were even better than the best hand models.

To be precise, every part of lan was good–looking. His face, his figure, and even the most private parts were perfect.
He did have the charm to attract women, but she didn’t want to be his plaything.
She suppressed the restlessness in her heart. The car had already stopped in front of Raymond Mansion amidst the sound of his keyboard tapping.
A servant came to open the door. Maja got off the car first, and lan followed her.

As soon as the door opened, she saw Grandpa leaning on a cane, standing at the entrance of living room door.
“Grandpa Holden.”
She called out obediently, remembering that she hadn’t bring a gift. She was about to say that she would make it up later when she saw lan let the servant take out a gift from the trunk.
He even said to Grandpa:
“Grandpa, this is what we prepared for you.”
He almost said, ‘This is what Maja and I prepared for you!, he thought if he called them separately, it might sound like there was some distance between the two of them.
To avoid embarrassment, he directly used ‘we‘. And he knew that Maja was busy with work and must have forgotten about the gift.
A trace of surprise flashed across Maja’s face, and she didn’t expect him to prepare the gift in advance, which eased her embarrassment.
Holden watched as his gifts were being moved into the old house box by box. He sighed, if these two had gotten along in the first place, maybe he would have a great–grandson by now.
He blamed lan with a glance: it’s all this guy’s fault!
“Come in and sit, Maja. What have you been up to recently?”
“I took over my father’s company before, but since I couldn’t get new business, I invited some of the staff out to start a new company.”
The words ‘couldn’t get new business‘ hit lan like a ton of bricks.
Why couldn’t the Pennyfeather family get new business? It was all his fault.
Holden’s face was filled with satisfaction, and he took her hand, “You can do anything well, just like.”
He wanted to say just like Eric, but knowing lan would mind, he changed the subject, “Just like other people’s children, you can paint so well and manage the company so well. Maja, you’re really good.”

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....
