Chapter 428

lan, in good shape and strong as a bull, easily lifted her up and pressed her against the cool wall.

“Mr. Raymond, this is the fourth time now.”

She lowered her lashes, suddenly obedient.

lan kissed her in this position, his face particularly captivating under the gentle rain of hot water.

Maja had to admit that lan was probably the most attractive man she’d ever seen and undeniably

charming. His thin lips, more defined when he was passionate, held a restrained and reserved appeal.

Having such a noble man show this kind of expression definitely gave one a secret sense of

satisfaction.

It’s just human nature.

No wonder Carol always said it was worth it being with lan. Feeling Maja’s submission, lan became

even more assertive.

The steam filled the bathroom, and noises echoed for a while.

By the time Maja was carried out, she was as limp as a noodle.

When she was tucked into bed, sensing that lan wanted to continue, she frowned, rolling over.

“I’m tired.”

lan wasn’t about to let her go; after all, the night was still young.

But Maja was already asleep, as if the tantalizing male body before her held no appeal whatsoever.

She was just completing a ten–times task.

lan, who had been pursued numerous times, was somewhat impatient with rejecting the opposite sex,

but he was somewhat unhappy when someone showed no interest in him at all.

“Penny?”

He called out, pinching her face.

Maja frowned in her sleep and swatted his hand away.

lan had no choice but to lie down.

His feelings for this woman were strange, like an itch born from the bones.

Wanting to scratch, yet unable to reach.

So he was often restless, and that itch affected his mood.

All these years, he had made every right judgment in business,making his opponents tremble at the

mere mention of his name, but when facing her, he seemed to lose control.

He frowned and couldn’t help but call Tyler.

Worried about disturbing Maja’s rest, he went to the living room.

Tyler was known for his good temper and had a good time; after all, he was in the entertainment circle.

He had just sent a woman away, smoking on the balcony.

Seeing lan calling him in the middle of the night, and it was three in the morning.

Strangely, Tyler felt that the other party should have just finished:

Perhaps it was a kind of tacit understanding between friends.

“lan, what’s up?”

lan didn’t respond.

He sat in the living room, and for the first time, he began to think about why he had to sleep with this

woman.

If it really was because he wanted to vent after suppressing himself for many years, he could find a

simpler one, not a married woman.

Tyler took a puff of his cigarette and lazily asked, “What’s the matter? You lost your steam halfway?”

lan’s face darkened, and he hung up the phone immediately.

Indeed, he shouldn’t ask this kind of person.

Tyler called back.

“Did you realize halfway that you’re falling for her?”

Tyler, being a scriptwriter, always found the sharpest angle when it came to affairs between men and

women.

“No.”

lan’s denial came very quickly.

Tyler’s approach was different from lan’s; he was more casual about these relationships; if he liked

them, he brought them home, and he didn’t care much about their feelings. After all, they were seeking

resources from him; it was just a transaction.

Tyler flicked off the ash and asked, “So why are you calling me in the middle of the night?”

lan was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, “What do you think of me?”

“What?” This question confused him; were they discussing a friend in the middle of the night?

“Ian, I’m not a woman; how would I know how you’re doing? Why don’t you ask Penny directly? Are

you afraid she’s not satisfied with you? I have some pills here.”

Before he could finish, lan had hung up.

Tyler called back, but lan had already turned off his phone.

How strange.
