When Maja received the message, it was like a punch to the gut.
She gave a cold chuckle. It wasn’t hard to understand Tricia’s audaciousness, not with her father
backing her up.
Two days later.
Tricia was still camping out in front of lan’s hotel room. lan hadn’t left the room all day yesterday, only
his assistant came and went.
Tricia had been here since early morning. She figured it was a workday, so lan would definitely leave
for work.
Sure enough, just after seven, she saw him in a sleek black suit, Jeff trailing behind him. They left the
presidential suite and headed for the elevator. Just as the elevator doors were about to close, Tricia
rushed over and blocked them with her hand.

Now that she saw him, remembering last night’s encounter, she dared not be too assertive. She could
only pretend to have bumped into him. “Mr. Raymond, are you heading to work too?”
The moment lan saw her, his expression turned serious. He’d never met anyone so shameless in his
life.
What on earth had blinded his grandfather to think this woman was sophisticated?
He felt rather annoyed.
Feeling the cold vibe emanating from him, Tricia dared not speak freely.
lan’s aura was incredibly intimidating, like the whole space was being suffocated.
Tricia’s face instantly turned pale. Despite her initial intention to approach him, she found herself at a
loss for words.
Even when lan coldly got into his car, Tricia was too embarrassed to follow. She could only watch
helplessly as his car drove off. Meanwhile, lan sat in his car, his brows furrowed.
As the car passed by a crossroad, seeing a woman walking her dog on the side of the road made his
mood slightly better.
Maja had gone to Rosewood Manor early in the morning to pick up Coco and take her out for some fun.
Now that the issue with her partner was resolved, she decided to go to Crystalbrook Valley to tackle the
flooring issue tomorrow. She wondered if a month would be enough to handle it. She had missed Coco
during their time apart.
Maja wanted to pat Coco’s head, but Coco seemed to have an lan–radar. The moment Coco detected
lan’s car, she wagged her tail and ran over.
Maja saw his car too. This was the route he took to work.
“Mr. Raymond.”
Before she could say anything more, Coco had already jumped up, excitedly sticking her head through
the open window.
Maja quickly rushed over to grab the leash.

Why did she always get so excited when she saw lan!
lan saw the few strands of dog hair that had fallen into the car and frowned.
However, he didn’t say anything.
It was strange. He was indeed allergic to dog hair. But this white dog always reminded him of a little
dog he’d seen at the Raymond family’s before. But that was an unpleasant memory.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Raymond. I have no idea why my dog always gets so excited when she sees you.”
lan didn’t seem bothered by the few strands of dog hair. He asked her, “Have the issues with your
partner been resolved?”
“They have been resolved.”
“Has my aunt bothered you again?”
“No, thank you. Mr. Raymond, I really owe you one this time. Should I treat you to a meal?”
lan looked pretty unhappy when he was leaving the hotel. But after a brief conversation with Maja, he
seemed to have calmed down.
Her dog barked a few more times, her bright eyes staring at him, as if urging him to accept the
invitation.
lan laughed, “We’ll see.”
