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.

Only Maja, nonchalantly munching on an apple, and said casually, “She claimed that she felt you have been wronged, so she cried.”

A look of confusion crossed lan’s face, then quickly morphed into something indescribable.

“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?”

lan felt a sense of absurdity. He picked up his gloves from the side and put them back on, looking at Maja.

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

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

The faces of the others were filled with discomfort, and Judith was flushed with humiliation.
