Chapter 543

Exhausted, Maja felt like a limp dough, her body unwilling to move even a finger. In her drowsy state, she saw him

wearing only a pair of dress pants, a shirt in

hand

The shirt was a bit crumpled, and his back was marked with scratches she’d made.

Outside, the daylight was already bright. He glanced back at her, seemed to say something

Was he off to a meeting? Or something else?

Whatever he said, she didn’t catch it.

She watched as he tossed the wrinkly shirt into the trash and reappeared in a fresh one, probably delivered by Jeff.

By the time lan went downstairs and headed for the car, Jeff was already waiting for him.

He seemed rather pleased with himself as he said to Jeff,

“Pick out a few pairs of women’s high heels, about a size 36.”

Jeff had never been asked to do such a thing, plus he didn’t have a girlfriend..

To add to the confusion, there were just too many types of heels, open–toed, pointed, strapped…

He drove to the Raymond Corporation, and once in the office, he brought up a few pictures and asked, “Boss, what

type of high heels do you

That’s when lan realized just how many styles of high heels there were, something he’d never paid attention to

before.

Recalling the pair she wore last night and the visual impact it had, he didn’t hesitate to choose a pair of pointed,

strap heels.

“Let’s go with these.”

Jeff gave him a look, thinking, the boss really can’t hide his feelings.

He cleared his throat a bit, “Boss, how many pairs do you want?”

“Two for now, in silver. The straps should be soft, the shoe covered in silver diamonds, need to be flashy enough.”

“For the black ones, pick a delicate pair that would accentuate her fair skin.”

Jeff blushed a bit, thinking, you seem to know what you’re doing, then he coughed awkwardly.

“Alright, I’ll arrange for the shoes to be air freighted from Europe.“.

These were the newest styles, there was no stock in the country.

lan was very satisfied, a subtle smile on his lips.

want?”

Since the moming, he’d been feeling like there was a balloon swelling inside him, so much so that when Tyler came

to see him, he felt the office was filled with

cheer.

He’d never seen him this happy, even after landing multi–billion deals.

“The movie starts filming tomorrow, just giving you a heads up.”

The mention of the movie reminded him of Shawn Walsh.

Tyler sidled over, smirking.

“Phelps told me, you even had him come to the hotel to treat Penny’s hand. Clearly, you have feelings for her, but

she hasn’t accepted them.”

lan pushed him away, looking annoyed.

“Do you two ever stop gossiping?”

Tyler laughed, “We don’t care about other people’s business, but when my buddy sets his sights on a married

woman, I can’t help but watch the drama unfold.”

The last thing lan wanted to hear was “married woman.”

He put down the papers in his hand, remained silent for a while before asking, “So, what’s Shawn’s personal life

like?”

“So, you’re starting to investigate your competition? And you are saying you don’t like her. Man, if I were you, I’d go

after her. As long as Penny isn’t blind, she’ll know who to choose.”

Tyler stopped suddenly, changing the subject.

“Are you not pursuing her because you’re married yourself and don’t want to put her in an awkward position?”

lan squirmed a bit, feeling seen through.

“I just don’t like her that much yet, we are just benefiting each other.”

Tyler was speechless. For the first time, he realized that some men could speak so decisively.

“Were you just out of her bed this morning?”

lan didn’t respond.

Tyler squinted slightly, “You didn’t actually go to her and her husband’s new house last night, did you?”

lan lowered his head, looking at the documents in his hand.

He didn’t like to lie, so if he stayed quiet, that was as good as admitting it.

Tyler cursed inwardly, “what a lowlife.”

If he were Penny’s husband, he’d probably be livid.

How dare he sneak into someone else’s house to sleep with his wife, that’s just plain disrespectful!

Chapter 543

Tyler had been involved with many celebrities, but he’d never done anything like that with a married person.

Seeing lan so enthusiastically involved in this, he couldn’t help but wonder, is someone else’s wife more attractive?

“lan, when are you planning to marry that woman at home? She doesn’t seem simple at all.”

Any mention of Penny brought a light to lan’s eyes.

But at the mention of the woman at home, his face turned dark.

She sure was cunning, but he didn’t care whether she was simple or not.

He just wanted to end this marriage as soon as possible.

“In a little while, I’ve been testing my grandfather’s limits recently.”
