Chapter 619

Maja froze on the spot, then walked over to stand in front of lan.

lan, sitting in his chair, pulled her into his arms.

Maja’s gaze swept over the cityscape through the floor–to–ceiling window, the setting sun casting a golden glow on the tallest clock tower. After a while, lan lifted her onto his marble office desk.

One hand cradling the back of her head, he kissed her passionately while his other hand busied itself unbuttoning her shirt.

Suddenly, the office door was thrown open. Ryan Elston barged in, his face livid.

“lan… whoa!”

Ryan quickly spun around, covering his face with his hand.

Maja stiffened in surprise. Frantically, she began re–buttoning her shirt, her cheeks flushed.

She didn’t look at lan, nor did she dare to turn and look at Ryan.

Seeing a hallway leading to lan’s private office, she darted away, feeling like she was about to explode.

lan resumed his seat, giving Ryan a cold stare.

Ryan had turned around by now. Although his hand was ostensibly covering his face, his fingers were spread apart He was sneakily peeking through them. lan asked him in a flat tone, “What do you want?”

Ryan’s gaze rested on the retreating Maja. “lan, you and Penny just don’t care about what people think, do you? How can you… in the office?”

“Get to the point.”

Ryan couldn’t continue, despite knowing about the special relationship between lan and Penny. Kissing like that in the office was just not something lan would do! It took Ryan a while to compose himself before he could speak again.

“Grandma called Grandpa. She’s causing a stir at the old house, demanding to know whether Eric is dead or not. The Raymond family is in chaos.”

lan knew that Edith was good at stirring things up, particularly when it came to Eric. Eric was Edith and Selena’s main source of support.

If Eric could come back, they’d be ready to trade the whole Raymond family for him.
