Chapter 1066
“Who taught you to speak like that?”
Dylan’s face hardened, his eyes turning icy. “Don’t pick up bad habits from Beck.”
Judith pouted, continuing to tug on his arm.
Dylan was a man of integrity and had little patience for women’s jealousy games. He focused on his work and was
particularly responsible towards his family
In his eyes, Judith was just a spoilt girl with no harmful intentions. She was merely a child wanting to be the center
of the universe, and there was nothing wrong with that. After all, she was still young
“Brother, I was wrong.”
She bit her lip, obediently falling silent, knowing that Dylan didn’t appreciate her earlier antics.
Dylan’s gaze kept wandering toward Maja.
Maja had now strolled to a distant observation deck. The hill was high, offering a grand view of the night city scape.
It was as if the Milky Way had cascaded onto the Earth This was her first time seeing Greenfield from this vantage
point
As she sat on the stone bench, lan touched her hair.
“Has your hair grown longer?”
Her hair used to be shoulder–length, but now it could be tied into a ponytail.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe twirled a lock of her hair between his fingers, asking. “Do you want to put it up?”
Maja shook her head but noticed a black hair tie around his wrist.
lan, who usually only wore a watch, had a hair tie on his wrist today.
Her gaze lingered for a few seconds longer.
lan suddenly felt embarrassed, “I thought your hair had grown longer, and you might want to tie it halfway, so I
brought a hair tie.”
Maja suddenly laughed out loud, inspecting his wrist closely
The mere trinket, probably worth just a few cents, looked priceless on his slender wrist.
“lan, can you keep this hair tie on your wrist forever?”
“Do you like it?”
“Mhmm”
“Okay, I’ll keep it for you.”
Before he could finish his sentence, they heard footsteps approaching. Someone was calling them to come and eat
the king crab
Seafood was best enjoyed hot, or it wouldn’t taste as good.
He held Maja’s hand, walking without hesitation towards the main table.
The chef had already brought the crab on a platter. The crab meat fell off at the slightest touch.
Maja took a bite and squinted her eyes in satisfaction.
Other people were sitting at the table, all enjoying the seafood. However, these delicacies were too common for
them, probably not as enticing as a bowl of instant noodles. So, when they saw Maja’s expression, someone
snickered.
But with lan sitting there, no one dared to say anything.
Once Judith’s crab was ready, she sat a meter away from Maja.
With a coquettish tone, she said, “Ms Pennyfeather is easily pleased. A plate of king crab, and you’re on cloud nine.”
lan’s face immediately darkened, “One should not speak while eating Didn’t the Sanders family teach you that?”
Tears welled up in Judith’s eyes as she leaned towards Dylan.
“Brother”
Dylan’s gaze shifted to lan. Since he had arrived, the two hadn’t exchanged a single word
He didn’t like lan, and the feeling was mutual.
“Mr. Raymond, your words are a bit harsh. She was just expressing concern.”
When he finished speaking, Maja asked, “I heard Ms. Sanders has a heart condition. Did the doctor give a timelin
Seeing Dylan’s face darken further, she smiled at him, “I’m just worried about Ms. Sanders’s health and expressing
concern.”
She threw Dylan’s words back at him, leaving him dumbfounded
When he finally recovered, he furrowed his brows, only to see Judith slam the table.
“Maja, who do you think you are?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut she was met with a stern rebuke from two men, “Shut up.”
One from lan, and one from Dylan.
Dylan rubbed his temples, “Don’t talk like that to your peers.”
Tears welled up in Judith’s eyes, “Brother, are you not on my side?”
“I am.”
He took a napkin and wiped her cheek. Seeing her real tears, he was taken aback.
“Judy, if you’re unhappy, I’ll take you out alone. I’ll postpone my work for a few days and let Beck come to keep you
company. You can go wherever you want, and there’s no need to argue with people.”
Judith felt much better, sobbing softly.
“Brother, you mean it, right? I don’t have to stoop to her level.”
Other people at the table also showed their concern.
“Ms Sanders, try this. It’s a Michelin–star recipe, a new creation by the chef.”
“Ms. Sanders, my family recently built a hotel in the desert. If you like ty, you can go and experience it, all for
free.”
With Judith crying, everyone was attending to her.
She smirked at Maja, cocking her eyebrow slightly
If Maja were upset, this group would only ridicule her. That was the difference between them.
How pitiful.
She chuckled inwardly. She didn’t really want to cry. She knew her brother and mother spoiled her without limits.
They were willing to back her up as long as she didn’t commit a crime
Judith was a brat, but she was their brat.
