Chapter 400

Maja led Carol into the bar, made sure lan didn’t see them, and then began to whisper.

The last time Carol said this, she booked the entire amusement park for Maja’s birthday.

Maja’s childhood was indeed tough. Things changed when Neil’s career took off, but Lillian died.

Neil started to be very busy, spending most of his time introducing Maja to clients or taking her to his newly established office.
