Chapter 1014
He had never thought of going head–to–head with Eric, even though he did grow up in Eric’s shadow. There was a
time when he wished to topple Eric from his pedestal, but as the years of youthful folly passed, he found himself
indifferent to such ambitions.
Caught off guard by the question, he pondered his response. If Eric’s presence indeed threatened his grandfather’s
safety, he would not hesitate to pull the trigger.
His relationship with Eric wasn’t strained. But it wasn’t exactly brotherly respect, either.
He glanced down at the message from Maja, the humor that once twinkled in his eyes slowly returning.
He replied to Maja.
[Have you checked my Facebook?]
Maja was currently scrolling through lan’s Facebook.
didn’t
She had no idea he had taken such pictures, which didn’t quite match his image as a CEO.
He looked like a young man fresh in love.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven a cheesy hand–holding picture was among them. Maja blushed upon seeing it.
However, the sweetness turned bitter as she recalled the past few days‘ events:
[I have.]
[Anything you would like to say?]
[Good shots.]
lan’s eyes cooled upon reading this, and he sat up straighter.
Good shots?
An average person wouldn’t think that way upon seeing that picture, especially not the person involved in it.
[Nothing else to say?]
Even without being face–to–face with lan, Maja could imagine his expression.
He would be wearing a cold face, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. If she were beside him, he would give her a dark
look, ready to throttle her if she didn’t say what he wanted to hear.
lan waited for three minutes, but no new message came. His mood plummeted.
[Really, nothing else to say? Don’t regret it later.]
He sent this message with a tight lip, thinking he didn’t need to keep chasing after her. He was ready to delete his
Facebook post and pretend it never happened.
But just as he opened Facebook, a new message from Maja came in. It was short and sweet.
[I like you too.]
Ian almost dropped his phone. He even leaned in closer to make sure he wasn’t hallucinating.
Maja said she liked him.
He thought he must have been delirious from staying up late the night before.
But after staring at the message for a long time, it was still there on his phone screen.
It wasn’t a hallucination.
[Maja, are you still drunk?]
In a crucial moment, lan dropped the ball.
Although he had covertly announced his feelings on Facebook, he had just overcome his psychological barrier.
He would like her wholeheartedly if he liked her, regardless of whether she had him in her heart.
As long as she stayed by his side, as long as she was willing to share his bed, that was enough.
His understanding of liking someone was to be with the person he was fond of until the end of time.
If they were together long enough, she would surely reciprocate his feelings.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut he hadn’t expected her to confess her feelings so soon.
In a short reply, lan read more than twenty times.
Then, another message from Maja came.
[Um, I’m still drunk, and I don’t want to sober up. Is that okay?]
lan was always dominant in bed, controlling her and making her talk gibberish.
But now, he was flustered by her few words and didn’t know how to respond.
He was initially sitting back in his chair, legs crossed in a laid–back manner. Now, he put his legs down, sat upright,
and typed on his phone with a serious expression.
He thought for ten minutes but still didn’t know how to reply.
So he turned to Fitch beside him.
“Help me think. How should I reply?”
Fitch frowned and leaned over. Upon reading their conversation, his face darkened.
Were they flirting?
And lan was still asking how should he reply?
Fitch began to suspect that lan was deliberately showing off.
