Just as he had said, the next day while Maja was reviewing documents at work, she couldn’t help but recall the scene of him stirring the porridge silently as she demanded explanations from him.

She had known long ago that Ian had a knack for melting hearts.

Taking a deep breath, she called in Zoey.

“Mr. Pennyfeather?”

“Zoey, could you help me find which brand of burn cream is the best? We need to send it over to the Raymond Corporation.”

In the evening, Coral invited Maja for a meetup, saying she wanted to discuss the investment she had promised, particularly the casting.

When Maja met Coral at the BlueSky Bar, Coral was dressed in an exquisite ladies’ suit.

They both looked like successful career women, but with different auras.
