Chapter 526
Back in the day, Carlene never felt threatened, not even whenn got married. But this time, it was
different the momentn purposely chose this restaurant and sat next to Penny It gave her the jitters.
She didn’t want to admit it, but it seemed liken really cared about this woman, otherwise, he wouldn’t
go through all this trouble.
He probably hadn’t realized it yet.
Her nails were digging into the palm of her hand.
When she was datingn, all he ever did was shower her with luxury gifts. He never took the initive
to hold her hand, let alone kiss her. She didn’t dare cross any boundaries, thinking he was into spiritual
love or something like that.
But now, seeing hown couldn’t keep his hands off Maja, the so–called spiritual love seemed like a
sick joke.
Carlene had to act now. Mere damage to the woman’s fingers was not enough; she wanted to make
sure she never saw the light of day again!
“Get in my car.”
“Mr. Raymond, aren’t you driving Ms. Shepard home?”
Once in the car, he didn’t have her sit in the passenger seat. After all, her hand was hurt, and the
seatbelt could press against it.
He called Carlene. He had no clue that she was just a stone’s throw away, watching them get in the
car.
“Carlene, you head back on your own; I’ve got stuff to do.”
Carlene was shaking, but she had to put on a brave face.
After all, even if she pitched a fit now,n wouldn’t give a damn.
His heart was already leaning towards another, and her tantrums would only annoy him.
She needed to take it slow.
“Okay,n.”
After hanging up, Carlene returned to the restaurant.
Only Nathan was left in the restaurant.
Nathan probably figured it out.n seemed to be making moves on Maja.
No wondern was so hostile toward him. He must have known that he was Maja’s husband.
Carlene came back fuming and started to curse at Nathan.
“What’s your deal with Penny? That woman is seducingn; she’s going to get what’sing to her!
You’re useless; your date gets snatched, and you don’t even make a peep. What kind of man are you?
A wimp!”
After the rant, Carlene picked up her bag, scoffed, and said, “But you bringing her to this low-ss
restaurant is fitting; it’s all she deserves.”
Nathan didn’t retaliate. He knew he couldn’t mess with this woman, and given that she was upset with
this in his career, so he chose to y deaf.

Carlene stormed off, leaving Nathan sitting there, gripping his fork tightly.
He did have dignity, but what could he do against the likes ofn? Even if Maja was truly his wife, what
could he do if a man like that wanted to snatch her away?
But Nathan never expectedn to do something like this..
Ian and Maja had arrived at the hotel.
Maja was angry at her own situation. She was being used byn to this extent, yet she still didn’t have
the courage to fight back.
She nned to endure three more encounters, and then she would have no reason to interact with
him.
Before she could even react, he pinned her against the wall without any warning.
Maja didn’t respond. She had seen the realn, brutal yet childlike.
Indeed,n was younger than her. She was already 24, while he wasn’t even 24 yet; he was a few
months younger than her.
Holden once told her that fan had been in the army when he was in his teens and then went off to
make a name for himself. Compared to the well–behaved Eric,n was more like a free–spirited kid.
Whenn wanted something, he had to have it, even if it would harm others. He didn’t care.
He remembered that Maja owed him three times, so he didn’t hesitate, even in front of Maja’s husband,
Nathan.
And now that he had seeded once again, he couldn’t help but ask her who was better, him or
Nathan.
He wasparing
Comparison meant he cared.
Maja didn’t care, so she never asked him who was better between her and Carlene.
