Chapter 223


    Maja nodded, pondered for a moment, and still asked, “Do you guys know the owner of that cherry


    wood flooring shop?”


    Daly’s current job isn’t too shabby, and he works in a legitpany. Although the pay isn’t great, he


    knows quite a few people.


    “I’ll ask around for you and let you know if I find anything.”


    With that, Maja finally relented and returned to her hotel.


    She was nning to take a bath and hit the sack.


    But after her bath, she found a huge bug on her bed and immediately chickened out. She spent the


    night dozing off on a chair in her clothes, which made her neck ache like hell


    The next morning, she woke up to a text from Daly saying that Mr. James and his gang were heading


    over to that ce tonight


    I’ve talked to Mr. James. He’ll pick you up.]


    After having some soup and eggs benedict, Maja waited outside her hotel.


    The first car that arrived was a run-of-the-mill one, not worth over twenty grand.


    Following it was a Rolls Royce. Maja Instantly recognized it asn’s ride.


    No way!


    Just as she was thinking this, Mr. James got out of the car and ushered Maja over to the Rolls Royce.


    Maja’s previous artwork had greatly pleased Mr. Raymond, and she had ridden in Mr. Raymond’s car


    before.


    As the car window rolled down,n’s face came into view.


    Even here, hisp was piled high with documents.


    He was wearing an expensive Patek Philippe on his wrist. His hands were slim and exquisite, and the


    veins on his hands were clearly visible His hands were as captivating as his face.


    “Mr. Raymond, this is the girl who drew the picturest time. We’re going on a field trip, and she needs


    a ride to a nearby ce. We’re all guys in our car, and some of us smoke. She might not be


    Maja sawn’s fingertips tighten a little as he held his documents. He was probably disturbed by the


    interruption


    Just as she was about to decline the offer, she heard his clear voice, “Hop in.”


    Maja had no choice but to get in.


    She pretended to admire the scenery outside the window as the car door closed.


    But out of the corner of her eye, she saw the orange she had given himst night standing out among


    the pile of documents.

    The cherry wood flooring shop owner lived in a vi in the mountains. He had a stable clientele and


    didn’t have to worry about orders. Plus, he wasn’t interested in making much money, so he chose to


    live in Crystalbrook Valley


    He alternated between his two vis-one in the mountains and one in Crystalbrook Valley.


    Maja got this information from Daly. She didn’t know how to deal with such a boss.


    The car jolted a little, and Maja saw the orange about to roll off. She quickly reached out to catch it


    At that moment,n also reached out, and their fingertips touched for a brief moment.


    One hand was cold, the other hot.


    Maja looked up in surprise and sawn’s frown. He probably didn’t expect this, either.


    Maja quickly withdrew her hand and brought up a topic to break the awkward silence, “Mr. Raymond,


    how’s your back injury?”


    Because she pulled back her hand, the orange fell to the ground.


    An bent over to pickup the orange. Maja remembered his injury and that the movement might hurt


    his wound. She quickly put a hand on his shoulder.


    “Mr. Raymond, let me get it.”


    The orange had fallen closer ton, but considering his injury, Maja decided to pick it up herself. She


    squatted, reached out, and her nose inevitably brushed against the fabric ofn’s trousers.


    Her breath seeped through the fabric and into his body


    But Maja didn’t notice. She was only focused on picking up the orange. As she found it, she let out a


    sigh of relief.
