Chapter 398

She slipped into her prepped clothes and grabbed her phone for a quick check.

Her phone was already powered on, with a few missed calls from Nathan and a message from lan.

Ian had gone abroad.

Maja snapped into alertness.

lan going abroad, did that mean she could have a few days of peace?

She washed her face, intending to head back to RosenGarden, but she was too exhausted to move.

Her body was tired, sore and aching.

A waiter discreetly rolled in a meal cart, left without asking anything and left a medical kit behind.

Maja recognized a few of the medicines in the box.

She had bought these from the hospital before. It seemed like lan realized he had crossed a line last

night.

Maja took a bath, applied the medicine, swallowed a fever reducer and dropped onto the couch, falling

asleep almost immediately.

She originally thought she could return to RosenGarden that night, but in reality, she stayed in the hotel

for two full days.

Resting, reducing fever, applying medicine.

Only after two days did she leave the room.

Maja was scared to death.

After returning to RosenGarden, she immediately turned on her computer to seek help.

“How to deal with an overly sexually active husband? Any way to make him lose interest?”

Her fingers were shaking as she typed the question.

The pain wasn’t physical. She was just drained, unable to do anything.

She desperately wanted to find a solution.

However, the question quickly received a dozen responses.

“Are you here to show off?”

“You don’t know how lucky you are. My husband can only last three minutes, done before I’m even

ready. It’s laughably sad.”

“Some are left high and dry, while others are flooded.”

“I’ve been married for ten years, and there’s no desire left. Men always talk big, but when it comes to

action, they can only last a few minutes.”

“If you don’t like your husband, give him to me. I’m almost an old maid.”

Reading these replies, Maja seriously responded with one.

“I’m serious.”

She thought they were joking.

But the netizens quickly responded.

“How can I find a man like your husband?”

“No way, she thinks we’re joking. But the average time for local men is only a few minutes. To avoid

hurting my husband’s feelings, I always praise him for being great. As a result, he genuinely thinks he’s

great. I don’t have the heart to burst his bubble.”

Maja felt anxious, recalling what lan had said before.

lan was a man of his word.

Even though she had rested for two days, she still felt tired.

She weakly shut her laptop and lay on the couch.

At this time, lan had just landed from his flight, accompanied by Carlene Shepard..

Everyone who went to the auction failed to get Herbert’s painting.

The auction deliberately advertised that a painting by Master Herbert would be the finale.

But the exciting part was not completed by Herbert. It was said that Herbert’s painting had been given

away, but no one in the industry could find out who it was given to.

Carlene’s face was grim. She had prepared the funds to please Edith with this painting.

Now that the painting had been given away, her effort was wasted.

She couldn’t help looking at lan, who was always calm. He just appeared at the auction and then went

to handle official business.

He had been attending meetings abroad for the past two days.

Carlene remembered sitting in the same row with him when they went abroad. Although lan was

dealing with documents all the way, she felt that he exuded a sense of satisfaction.

Like he had eaten something he liked and was very satisfied.

But she didn’t dare to ask, and lan didn’t seem to have any particular food he liked.

He was indifferent to everything.

“Ian, do you know who the painting was given to?”

Without looking up from his documents, lan’s phone beeped. It was a message from the hotel saying

that the lady had gone home today.

It took her two days to get out.

“I don’t know.”

He smiled slightly, recalling the scene in the underground garage that night. Something seemed to

explode in his chest.

Seeing his good mood, Carlene brought up a sensitive topic.

“Edith seems very opposed to your marriage. If she comes back, she will ask you to divorce.”

lan raised his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief.

“If Grandpa Holden recovers, I won’t hesitate to sign the divorce papers.”

There was no hint of sentimentality in his words.
