Chapter 1030
Chapter 1030
Zoey approached Maja’s office desk, hesitating whether or not to wake her up. But she remembered that Ms. Penny
feather seemed to have dozed off on the desk when she last checked on her. Everyone had been working hard
lately, so she decided to let Maja rest a little longer
Meanwhile, at Greenfield Gardens, the food on the table had been reheated several times. The chefs were too
afraid to even ask anymore
Once again, the food became cold. lan glanced at the clock on the wall, it was already ten in the evening
There were no calls, and he couldn’t get through to her
He was busy too, but he would always answer her calls, even during meetings.
lan found himself yearning for a cigarette, but he was afraid that the smell of smoke would ruin her appetite if she
arrived just after he lit it up
He took out a cigarette and held it between his fingers, resisting the urge to light it. But when the clock struck half
past ten, he couldn’t hold back anymore and eventually lit up
The chefs had already gone home, and nobody was there to reheat the food.
lan sat in silence as if he was in a silent standoff with someone
The atmosphere in the hall was so gloomy that, in the end, even Jeff didn’t dare to come close to him. He just stood
quietly at a distance
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtobserving lan’s activities.
At eleven, lan told Jeff, “You go rest first.”
Jeff walked to the door, wanting to say something comforting, but he couldn’t find the words.
At that point he seemed to understand Mr. Raymond a little better.
When his feelings were unclear, his resolve was like the hardest thing in the world.
But when his feelings were clear, his heart might just become the softest thing.
Such extremes, yet not contradictory at all.
For those who were afraid to love, once they took the first step, it was earth–shattering.
Maja woke up promptly at midnight. She rubbed her eyes and suddenly remembered that she had promised lan to
have dinner at Greenfield Gardens!
After a brief nap, she felt revitalized.
She immediately checked her phone and broke into a cold sweat when she saw the time.
She quickly grabbed her coat and headed out the door, greeting the few people who were still working overtime on
the top floor before leaving the building
She didn’t call lan in a hurry to let him know that she was on her way. Somehow, she knew that he would still be
waiting there for her.
That was why she always said that lan had a way of melting people’s hearts.
Just like in that room in Crystalbrook Valley during the sandstorm, when he held her gently without saying a word.
Maja floored the gas pedal and by the time she arrived at Greenfield Gardens, the guards didn’t even ask her
purpose before letting her in.
The door to the living room was left ajar as if it had been waiting for the arrival of someone.
She pushed the door open and, as expected, saw lan still sitting at the dining table
Maja hung her bag on a hook and tried to explain her situation, “I’m really sorry, I fell asleep at the office.”
lan didn’t respond, he was sulking
Maja quickly walked over to the dining table and when she saw all the food, she understood that he must have
instructed the chefs very carefully.
“There’s so much food, and it all looks delicious.”
lan ignored her, so she quickly put on an apron and started packing some of the dishes in cling film to put in the
fridge.
“There’s just too much food, we wont be able to finish it all reheat three dishes and in about ten minutes we can
start eating”
As she spoke, she continued to pack the food into the fridge
lan remained seated, watching her it was the first time he had seen her wearing an apron in Greenfield Gardens.
He couldn’t help but think, if they hadn’t divorced, he could have still called her his wife
Maja left three dishes out and kept talking to herself
“Wow, this dish must have been flown in As far as i remember, it’s not available locally You must have instructed
the chefs early in the morning. Thank you for the hard work. This one is also to my liking”
She carried the three dishes to the kitchen and started to reheat them.

The kitchen was a bit far away from the dining table, but through the transparent sliding glass door, lan could still
see her bustling around in her apron.
He didn’t want to blink, just wanted to watch her a little longer as she went on with reheating the dishes. After all, it
was the first time he had seen Maja like that.
Especially in the kitchen of Greenfield Gardens.
True to her word, Maja had the three dishes reheated in just about ten minutes.
She wore oven mitts to take the first dish out of the microwave and placed it on the dining table. Then she brought
over the other two dishes.
There was still rice in the rice cooker. She was a big fan of rice.
So, all the dishes lan had prepared for that particular night were her favorites.
The presentation was exquisite.
She served lan a bowl of rice and placed it in front of him, and then served herself a bowl.
She didn’t remove the apron around her waist, instead, she leaned in close to him.
“Mr. Raymond, let me feed you. I hope you can forgive my tardiness; I promise I won’t make the same mistake
again, alright?”
She almost managed to make lan laugh.
When Maja wanted to appease someone, she definitely knew how to make them feel comfortable.
He snorted lightly and finally picked up his spoon.
