Chapter 520

Maja was already out, with Nathan’s car parked nearby. She’d just sent a message for someone to come pick her up.

She was still paying Nathan’s salary; she might as well use him while he was still around before he left for Crystalbrook Valley.

Maja turned a corner, intending to head for Nathan’s car.

But lan grabbed her uninjured wrist.

They hadn’t completely left the garden yet, and there were a few scattered people around. Everyone’s eyes turned to lan when they saw him.

Maja looked down at his hand, frowning.

“Mr. Raymond, what’s up?”

lan let go of her wrist, saying, “I’ve been texting you these past few days, but you haven’t replied.”

“Because it wasn’t about Greenfield Gardens, I didn’t think it was necessary to reply.”

“I just blocked a drink for you; how come you’re not grateful?”

“Mr. Raymond, you’re my client. It’s not right to have my client block drinks for me.”

The word “client” clearly defined their relationship.

lan felt like he’d been stabbed in the heart, but this was a public place, so he didn’t lose his temper; he just stared at her gloomily. “How did your hand get injured?”

She was clearly getting a bit impatient and didn’t want to discuss this with him. For the first time, lan deeply felt how unwelcome he was.
