Chapter 448

Daly, in the office, usually spoke with such a thick accent that it’s hard to understand him sometimes.

But Daly was way better than Leo. Leo talked so fast and his accent was so thick that if Maja hadn’t dealt with him before, she’d really have no idea what he was saying.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? How could you do this? How are you any different from a gold digger or the hookers on a small commodity street?”

Daly was really pissed, so angry that his fingers were shaking.

Maja knew what he meant by “small commodity street. There used to be prostitutes in Crystalbrook Valley.

Women passing by would always look down on those women. They were afraid that these prostitutes would ruin their families.

Once, when she was in school, she and her aunt passed by that place, and there were always women gossiping about the prostitutes.

“If you don’t study hard, you’ll end up like them.”

But Maja remembered that when she was very young! Lillian took her past that place once.

She said, “Maja, if you study hard and grow up to be capable, you can help them find good jobs. That’s the real meaning of studying hard.”

Maja didn’t understand at the time. It wasn’t until she grew up and thought back on those prostitutes on “small commodity street” that she felt the impact of Lillian’s words.

Now, facing Daly’s accusations, she was speechless.

Seeing that she had nothing to say, Daly continued.

“You’re so confused. Even Leo knows to cherish his wife now. He’s also working hard, and Oli is even preparing for a baby. You, a cultured person, why would you become someone’s mistress?”

What Daly meant was, How could she, someone who got into Solstice College, be worse off than Leo, who didn’t even go to school?

Even Olivia, in Daly’s eyes, had become a qualified daughter–in–law.

Not for any other reason, just because she was pregnant!

Maja’s face turned cold. “Uncle, do you know how many things I’ve handled for Leo? If it weren’t for me mediating, Olivia would still be in jail for that eight million. You can say I disappointed my mom, but I’ve never done anything to hurt your family.”

“That’s not the same! Being with lan is just degrading yourself! He will never marry you; men are just playing around!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw lan coming around the corner and froze.

lan also happened to hear this last sentence, and his brows furrowed.

Daly quickly lowered his head and tried to leave, but lan walked over and put his arm around Maja’s waist.

“And how do you know I won’t marry her?”

His tone was indifferent. “How is her being with me degrading herself?”

Daly’s face turned pale.

“Mr. Raymond, I’m sorry.”

lan’s gaze was intimidating, and his tone was as cold as ice.

“You’d better mind your own business.”

Daly was so scared that he hurried off, nearly tripping over his own feet.

lan released his tight hold on Maja as soon as Daly left, his gaze shifting to the distance.

“What I said earlier was just a joke.”

Maja was taken aback, wondering which line he was referring to.

“The part about me marrying you was just a joke. I just wanted to help you save face.”

Maja nodded, her expression calm.

“I understand, Mr. Raymond. Thank you.”

lan started to walk toward his room.

Maja had no choice but to follow him.

As soon as they entered, he pushed Maja against the window sill.

Maja looked out nervously; the view outside was great, but there might be people passing by, which made the blinds seem insecure.

“Mr. Raymond.”

She called out, then heard footsteps outside.

Maja closed her eyes tightly in fear, trying her best to push lan away.

She heard Daly’s voice outside, along with the manager of Crystalbrook Valley.

Even though the voice was soft, she still heard clearly that the manager was advising Daly.

You need to take it easy. What’s wrong with her being with Mr. Raymond?”

“But she’s already married; isn’t that being unfaithful to her husband? And she’s just a girl; if something happens, no one would want to marry her.” “You better stop saying things like that. Being favored by Mr. Raymond is also her luck; that’s fate.

Maja felt a bit dazed. It felt like her town was the type where people would consider themselves lucky if they could latch onto someone powerful.

In that moment, she felt defeated, and lan’s kiss also stopped.

He asked her,

“Do you care so much about what others think?”

“Of course you, Mr. Raymond, can afford not to care.”

lan’s aura turned cold, and he let go of Maja.

Maja knew he was angry again.
