Chapter 1062


    Maja found the situation amusing, clutching the leash of Rocky, her caninepanion.


    Her gaze shifted to Ian as she requested, “Ian, will you mind unloading the stuff from the car? I think


    Rocky prefer a walk. He must be bored stiff being cooped up in the car the whole time.”


    Ian nodded, quickly opening the car door and beginning to unload their luggage.


    The pairpletely ignored Judith, rendering her presence rather superfluous.


    Judith swayed a bit, managing to stay on her feet with sheer willpower.


    Maja, poised to walk away with Rocky, was taken aback when the huge dog bumped into Judith.


    Judith who was already weak, stumbled back a few steps.


    Maja was surprised by that scene. Rocky had been Judith''s pet for a while, and yet he seemed to show


    no respect for her.


    But considering Rocky''s temperament, she realized that to him, everyone except Ian was merely a


    servant.


    Judith''s hand, hanging by her side, clenched into a tight fist. She couldn’t lose herposure just yet.


    They were all going to be spending a few days together in that vi. There would be plenty of


    opportunities to strike back at themter.


    As Maja led Rocky past the group of people, she noticed their strange looks. Probably because Judith


    had just mentioned her family background and they were reminded of the entric ra and Drew. It


    was humiliating for them to be in the same circle as the daughter of such people.


    Maja didn''t pay them any mind, simply walking over to Ryan.


    Ryan looked past her at Judith, who was still trying to strike up a conversation with Ian and rolled his


    eyes.


    "I shouldn''t have asked you to walk the dog. She''s already trying to take advantage of your absence."


    "It''s fine."


    Maja, leash in hand, followed Ryan down the path.


    Meanwhile, Ian, left behind, continued to unload the luggage.


    Judith quickly stepped forward and wanted to lend a hand,


    "Let me help you."


    Ian''s eyebrows furrowed, about to refuse, when Judith called out,


    "Wind,e over here and help."


    So, the man who had been watching from a distance also came over.


    Ian had intended that trip to be a getaway for Maja, without any otherpany.


    Unable to refuse, he decided not to bother arguing anymore.


    The others exchanged nces, all aware of Judith''s intentions.


    After all, on her first night in Greenfield, Judith had openly called out to Ian in front of everyone.


    She made no real effort to hide her pursuit of Ian from others, openly showing her intentions from the


    beginning. That left people unsure of how to react to that situation.Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    A few high-societydies who had been chatting amicably with Judith earlier started to exchange


    whispers.


    "Maja thinks she''s something special, getting Ian to do the heavy lifting. She''s clearly spoiled."


    "Men''s affection always has an expiration date. I''m just waiting for their rtionship to finally end."


    "Ms. Sanders is very proactive. Despite her ill health, she''s eager to help Ian. In contrast, Maja just


    gave an order and Ianplied without any annoyance. It''s clear that she''s got him wrapped around


    her little finger."


    After all, that was Ian. Everyone in their circle had been warned against crossing him. His recent win


    over Dennis Raymond was a testament to his high standing. It was surprising to see him stooping so


    low to carry a woman''s luggage.


    "Maja is acting like a princess without the royal blood. She''s so spoiled!"


    Maja was unaware of the fact that her simple request for Ian to unload the luggage had led to such


    spection.


    The scenery here was indeed beautiful, with endless rolling green hills.


    Her mncholy lifted significantly as she removed Rocky''s leash.


    Ryan walked beside her; his eyes filled with admiration for Rocky.


    "Where did you get this dog?"


    "Ian gave it to me."


    Ryan''s tone turned sour instantly,


    "Cousin Ian treats you well. I''ve never seen this breed before."


    Maja was surprised by thatment. Ryan had grown up in the Raymond family. Surely there wasn''t a


    breed he hadn''t seen, right?


    Thinking about how Judith also wanted Rocky, she stooped down to examine the dog''s face.


    But no matter how much she looked at it, it was just a dog. Only a bit more robust and imposing.


    Ian wouldn''t given her a wolf as a pet, would he?


    With a lightugh, she patted Rocky''s head.


    "Perhaps Ian found this rare breed in North America. Rocky is very smart. I''ve never seen such arge


    dog before."


    Strong enough to carry a person through the jungle.


    After a leisurely stroll, Maja and Ryan returned to the crowd. By that time, everyone had dispersed,


    each to their own room in the vi. Maja and Ian''s rooms were far apart, while Judith''s room was right


    next to Ian''s.
