Chapter 120
Maja was taken aback and saw a look of coldness in lan’s eyes. Then, he raised his leg and kicked the
rushing hooligan away. Seeing that they met a tough character today, those hooligans didn’t dare to
stay any longer, got up from the ground, and left in embarrassment.
“Mr. Raymond! I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Maja held lan’s hand, her fingertips trembling slightly.
However, her high heels made it difficult for her to move, and the pain in her leg was intensifying.
Maja threw away her high heels and started walking barefoot, a rare look of panic appearing on her
face
lan was hurt because of her, and if Selena found out, she’d be in trouble.
And he was the one who saved her tonight, she was always grateful to him. She followed lan into the
car, and at the same time grabbed Leo who was about to flee. “You come with me too!”
Leo was a little afraid of Maja, and when he saw this luxury car, he didn’t even dare to get in it. Maja
didn’t want to talk to him, just shoved him into the passenger seat.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe driver, Jeff, saw that lan was injured and immediately accelerated the speed of the car. The car
sped towards the nearest hospital.
A few minutes before, Maja’s car had caused a traffic jam because she got out of the car.
She was in a hurry to catch Leo, but she didn’t notice that parking was not allowed at that location.
Hearing the mounting road rage behind them, Tricia told the driver, “Let’s go first, il call Maja and tell
her. Maybe she will take someone else’s car.” The driver had no choice. The party was going to start
soon, and they couldn’t be late.
So the driver drove away.
As Tricia saw their destination getting closer, her eyes sparkled with anticipation and excitement.
This would be her first time meeting lan at such a public and important event.
Before, she could only look at him from a distance, and maybe he only regarded her as an insignificant
person. Only when they met last time, there was a momentary fluctuation in his eyes, but that
fluctuation was very complicated, and even contained a trace of boredom towards her. No matter, as
long as she kept trying, he would eventually see her, like her, cherish her.
She felt her cheeks blushing. palms sweating with nervousness.
She took a deep breath, trying to act nonchalant.
As for Maja, it would be better if she didn’t show up tonight.
Tricia didn’t want Maja to show up at the party and steal the show.
Meanwhile, Mája had arrived at the hospital, her forehead covered in cold sweat.
The doctor was somewhat surprised seeing her in such a glamorous outfit.
“Doctor, please check him, his hand might need stitches.”
Tan was already in a bad mood. He had never been hurt for someone else before, especially for a
woman he barely knew.
He hadn’t planned on taking the hit for her. But seeing her smooth bare back, he thought it would be a
shame if it were marred by a scar.
Without much thought, he instinctively blocked the sharp dagger…
Seeing Maja so anxious, he found it rather amusing.
This was probably the first time he saw her showing such emotion since they met.
Even that first night when they woke up in bed, she was so calm. He had thought she was always
emotionless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis thought brought a slight smile to his face.
Just then, Maja’s phone rang. It was a call from Holden.
She chatted with the doctor for a bit, learning they were about to stitch up the wound, then stepped out
into the hallway to answer the call.
“Grandpa Holden, I’m really sorry. lan got hurt protecting me. He’s at the hospital getting stitches, we
might not make it tonight.”
Holden was relieved to hear that lan was willing to get hurt for Maja, and there was no sense of
blame.“Maja, are you okay?”
Ian’s a man, getting a little hurt isn’t a big deal.
“I’m fine, but he’s hurt badly. It’s all my fault.”
“Don’t be silly. He’s your husband. Protecting you is what he’s supposed to do. Ian did a good job. Stay
with him at the hospital. There’s always a next time for introductions. No need to rush or feel guilty.”
Maja’s heart warmed. She always knew that Holden was very kind to her, so when she thought that she
had secretly signed an agreement with lan, the guilt in her heart became even stronger. Back in the
ward, the doctor had already put in a few stitches. lan’s phone rang, seeing it was a call from Holden,
he felt a little irritable.
If he didn’t show up at the party, he was worried his grandpa might misunderstand him, thinking he was
just making up excuses to avoid that woman!
