Chapter 303

Maja was kind of taken aback. Her mentor was indeed abroad at an academic conference and hadn’t yet returned to Greenfield. He hadn’t told her that Carlene was also into painting.

This reminded her of when Ryan mentioned lan’s artistic prowess. It wasn’t surprising that Carlene was a painter. Maybe that’s why they had stuff in common in the first place.

“Penny, I wish lan would split up with his wife. I hope you can snag him,” Connie said.

Maja, who was busy eyeballing a humongous king crab, rejected the idea immediately.

“Don’t say stuff like that,” she said.

Connie stuck out her tongue. “Just saying what I think. But he digs Carlene. If they break up, he’d probably put a ring on her.”

“Do you know when they’re tying the knot? Are you going to the wedding?” Maja asked.

“Sounds good. They’re in love. I’d probably go if lan invited me,” Connie replied.

Just as she finished, she called out to someone behind her.

“lan, Carlene, what are you two waiting for? Get in here!”

Maja froze. She turned around to see lan and Carlene standing behind her.
