lan came to his senses and deepened the kiss, his hand cradling the back of her head.
The dimly lit lounge was filled only with the sound of running water.
After a while, he reluctantly let her go, slowly rising from the couch, “What time is it?”
*Just about ten.”
No sooner had she spoken, his cell phone rang. It was a call from Steve, probably about to startpersuading him.
He watched the screen flicker without answering the call
Maja saw the name and felt a sudden twinge in her heart.
“Has Mr. Raymond returned from his travels?”
She recalled Ryan saying that it was generally impossible to reach Steve unless he initiated contact.
Apparently, Eric’s return had prompted Steve’s return as well.
Yeah
Maja wanted to ask more but was quickly pushed back onto the couch by lan, his voice husky and low.
“I want you‘
Maja tried to push him away, but he was skilled in igniting her desires. She melted under his touch inan instant.
In the end, she didn’t question why Steve had called
lan didn’t prolong their passionate doings. They did it for only two hours and it was intense and quick.Maja was left breathless the entire time, completely under his control
When it was over, she began to dress, pointing at the computer outside.
“I have to work late tonight. You should head home.”
lan sat on the couch, his hand resting on the edge, watching her dress, his Adam’s apple bobbing
“Not enough.”
Maja immediately felt flushed, her cheeks turning scarlet.
“Let me finish with Shawn’s things at least.”
She knew lan was worried and she wanted to be there for him, but Shawn’s situation was too tricky.Online, there was a storm of criticism, and any forceful intervention by lan would only backfire
She had to find a way out herself.
lan slowly wrapped his arms around her waist, “How about we leave this place?
Maja didn’t know about lan’s influence in North America, more formidable and wealthier than in theRaymond Corporation, so she was a little confused
lan chuckled after his suggestion, “Just kidding, I’ll leave now
But Maja held his hand, “I’ll be home soon.”
lan nodded, picked up his suit jacket and draped it over his arm.
For a moment, Maja wished she could ignore Shawn’s matter, but that was impossible. Every artist inthe company was her responsibility.
Especially Shawn, the first one they signed when the company was just established. She had to takehim to greater heights.
lan placed a soft kiss on her forehead, a peck on her lips, and then he left.
But as soon as he arrived at the Star Movie Group building, he saw a black car waiting for him,probably for a while.
As he approached, the car door opened, and Steve was sitting inside.
“Tan, we need to talk”
lan got in As he saw the scenery moving backward, he lit a cigarette and cracked the window open
Steve took a while before he sighed, “The higher–ups want me to talk to you”novelbin
Tan laughed as soon as he finished speaking, “Dad, I know people are selfish by nature, but did theyever consider me or Maja when making ther
decisions? She’s a person, not an object”
A look of discomfort crossed Steve’s face Over the years, he had never been good at communicatingwith his son.
The atmosphere in the car became stifling.
