“Maja, head over here to change. After you’re done, you can soak into the hot tub. You’ve been pulling all-nighters lately, haven’t you? A soak in the tub should help you unwind.”

Maja rubbed her aching neck, and the next moment, a soothingly cool hand landed on her neck.

“Let me help you with that.”

Ian had a knack for being charming when he was really trying to pursue someone.

There was no one around at the moment, and the hot tub was shrouded in a mist that made the ambiance somehow intimate.

Their closeness, coupled with his hand gently massaging her neck, made the moment even more suggestive, “Is that too much pressure?”

Maja lowered her eyelashes, “I’ll go change.”

She had been really tired lately. The thought of soaking in a warm bath was enticing, especially since peaceful moments like this were probably going to be scarce. Judith was still in the hospital, and she had no idea how the Sanders family would react to her, the root cause of all the trouble.

As she left, a slight smile tugged at Ian’s lips as he headed towards the changing room.

When Maja emerged in her swimsuit, Ian was just stepping out of his changing room. The sight of her made his pupils dilate.

Maja had fair skin, and the sky-blue dress clung to her body, emphasizing her curves.
