Chapter 129


    Something about the hot shower he just took felt off. He should have taken a cold one instead.


    His heart was getting more restless. Who the hell sleeps so defenselessly in a man’s room?


    Was he overthinking or did Maja have some ulterior motive?


    Seeing the nket on the bed and recalling her in his suit, he picked up the nket, walked back to the


    living room, casually tore it open, and draped it over her. He didn’t look at her face and deliberately


    kept a distance between them.

    After doing all that he ignored her, went back to the master bedroom andy down.


    When he’s not pulling an all–nighter, he’s disciplined and hits the hay by fo.


    But if he really has to burn the midnight oil for days on end, he can do it without feeling a wink of sleep.


    As soon as his eyes shut, he heard a noise from the living room, as if something had been kicked


    over.


    He chose to ignore it and hit the sack.


    Maja woke up in the middle of the night with a painful foot.


    She frowned and rubbed her eyes in confusion.


    When she remembered where she was, she immediately got up.


    But because her legs had been curled up for so long and were numb, coupled with her still recovering


    ankle, she tumbled towards the table as soon as she moved. The ss table flipped, and the thermos


    box and a few sses on it shattered.


    With such a racket there was no wayn didn’t wake


    1. up.

    He opened the door to the master bedroom, tying his bathrobe, a stern look on his face.


    Maja was struggling to get up from the floor, and when she looked up, she saw the serious expression


    onn’s face.


    She knew she screwed up and ignored the pain.


    “Mr. Raymond, I’m sorry, I…”


    Tan looked at the shards on the floor and then at her exposed palms and ankles, unharmed.


    He couldn’t understand why every time he was with Maja, he was thrust into the most bizarre


    situations.


    Maja got up, feeling mortified. Why was she always making a fool of herself in front ofn?


    Why did she fall asleep in a hotel room?


    Maybe in his eyes, she was no different from those easy women.


    Maja let out a sigh.


    Nothing else mattered as long as she didn’t piss off the client and make him cancel the contract in


    anger.


    Althoughn’s order wasn’t necessary anymore, she had never had a contract cancelled in her career.


    If it got cancelled because of this, it would be quite embarrassing.


    “Mr. Raymond, you can go and rest for a while, I will leave after cleaning up these debris.” Ian looked at


    her seeing a hint of exhaustion in her drooping eyshes, and couldn’t help but feel a pang of


    sympathy.


    “Did you run into any trouble in Crystalbrook Valley?”


    Maja was taken aback, touched by his concern in the middle of the night, her eyes welling up.


    “The problem’s been solved, just really tired, I’m really sorry.”


    After a whole night of crying and drama with Daly and Susan, her brain never got a break. Plus, she


    was pissed off at Leo’s ipetent cousin. Her head was buzzing all the way driving back.


    “No need to clean up, wait until dawn before leaving.”
