Chapter 855
When Phelps got back to his office, he mulled over the incident, unable to contain himself, so he shot lan a text.
[Sorry, mate.]
lan’s response was swift. [What’s up?]
[I accidentally saw her in the buff.]
No sooner had he sent the message than lan called, his voice steeped in anger.
“Phelps, what do you mean by ‘I accidentally saw her in the buff?‘ You’re saying you accidentally saw her naked?”
Phelps, massaging his temples, gave a detailed rundown of the incident, adding, “I’ve sent a nurse to take care of her.” lan felt a lot better after hearing this and hung up..
Then, he called Maja.
Maja, now with a fresh quilt, answered his call.
“Maja, is your fever any better?”
“Yeah.”
“Do you find Phelps attractive?”
“What?”
Maja frowned, unsure what he meant.
After a minute of silence, lan asked again.

“Why didn’t you respond to my text?”
“I haven’t checked my phone.”
“I missed you.”

The previous conversation was bland, but hearing these words suddenly made Maja’s heart race, and she involuntarily sat up straight.
She didn’t reply, and lan didn’t say anything else.
Both of them lapsed into silence, but neither hung up.
Unable to stand the tension, Maja was about to ask him if there was anything else when he asked again.
“Do you miss me?”
She was taken aback, feeling heat spreading through her body, her breath quickening.
lan was patient, awaiting her reply, but she asked, “Do you think you can have the upper hand with the venture capital agreement?”
He looked out the window, “I’m not sure.”
Maja immediately felt a sense of urgency, “lan, are you pulling my leg!? If you lose, then the Raymond Corporation.”
She was agitated, knowing if he did lose, Dennis would surely give him hell!
“If I lose, will you take care of me? Can I come work at your company?”
“lan!” She was pissed, thinking: he’s still joking around at a time like this!
lan chuckled, looking at the drizzle outside and sighed, “Maja, I’ll be back soon.”
With that, he ended the call.
Maja couldn’t rest now, and he actually said he wasn’t sure.

lan, always so confident, was now doubting himself for the first time?

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....
When will get update?...
What is wrong that the author has not updated this novel in over a month or is there somewhere else that I can continue reading the novel from chapter 1951 upwards? Do tell, please. Thanks....
