    There was a small lump on the bed, and all you could see was the soft hair poking out.


    The bedsidemp was on, casting a warm glow on the bed.


    “Penny?”


    Theyout of the room was the same as his, just with different decor. He fig probably due to the sudden


    brightness


    from inside, he went in


    on the lights in the room, and saw Majar’s forehead crease


    was still pale, but she seemed in better spirits. When she saw the man by the bedside, surprise shed


    through her eyes


    “Mr. Raymond?”


    “Are you sick?”


    Maja had a fever the night at Crystalbrook Valley. Today her period pains were quite severe. She had


    taken three pills at noon without considering that it would upset her stomach. When she woke up, all


    she felt was unbearable pain in her stomach, as if all her organs were being twisted together.


    She quickly sat up, her hand on her stomach, her face even paler. She tried to get out of bed, but her


    legs gave out, and she fell

    After being helped up by him, Maja breathed a sigh of relief, quickly straightening up. When she

    Just then, it urred to her. Why wasn in her bedroom?


    “The front desk came knocking, there was no answer. So I called you and asked for a spare room key.”


    His tone was steady, pointing towards the outside.


    “You should eat something.”


    Relieved, Maja quickly went out. She hadn’t eaten all day, and her stomach was growling. Sitting on the


    sofa, she grabbed some food from the dining cart. Only after downing half a bowl of soup, she started


    to feel a bit better.


    Looking up, she sawn standing by the single-seater sofa, his eyes bright like a nightke. His shirt


    sleeves were rolled up, and he was now sitting on the single-seater sofa


    Feeling a bit awkward, Maja quickly asked, “Mr. Raymond, would you like to eat?”


    The front desk had prepared a lot of food. She thought it was the staff knowing that she was sick and


    specially sending it over, considering the hotel was very good and also quite expensive.


    Moreover, this was a hotel of the Raymond Group, so the service was excellent.

    Maja guessed that he had something important to discuss, probably about Greenfield Gardens. No


    wonder he was here, she had already told him, any issues could be discussed at any time.

    The room was very quiet, as if it was isted from the outside world at this moment.

    a nightgown, the fabric was so thin it felt as though his palm was directly touching


    her skin


    Her body tensed up, listening to his words, “I’ve always wondered, are you trying to seduce me on


    purpose?”


    Following his gaze, Maja looked down to see her chest, more prominent because she wasn’t wearing a


    bra, and her face immediately turned beet
