Chapter 1077

The commotion had attracted the attention of lan from afar. He took off his gloves, thinking that Maja was being picked on, and strode over.

“What’s going on?”

None of the others knew how to explain.

“Is she okay?”

Maja nearly spat out the apple in her mouth, swallowing hard and washing it down with a gulp of water.

Judith stiffened, stammering in response.

“It’s just that Ms. Pennyfeather said something that upset me.”

“What did she say?”

“She called me the other woman and said I was trying to steal her place.”

“Aren’t you?”

“Stay away from her, I’m afraid you might catch her craziness.”

Maja managed to hold back her laughter in front of the crowd.
