Chapter 365
Was this a message from Mom in her dreams?
Her mother worried that Dad would be lonely, worried that she won’t marry into a good family.
She had to admit those dreams had become a reality.
Neil was in a tough spot now, with no one around to help him. He had to worry about his grandparents,who needed his care, and the huge debt from ByteWise Technologies. He probably thought thosedebts wouldn’t need to be paid back if he died.
If Maja really had let Neil go just like that, no matter how smooth her life is in the future, she wouldn’t beable to make up for the regrets she had at that
moment.
But what should she do?
She called Carol Miller to ask about Knox.
However, the financial power of the Miller family was still in the hands of Abner Miller, and Carol wasn’ttoo clear about the business side of things.
Maja made call after call and finally got through to Samuel.
Samuel was preparing to attend a business dinner in the evening.
The restaurants for these kinds of dinners are expensive, catering mainly to the wealthy……
Samuel’s eyes were sparkling, his lips slightly raised.
“Maja, my dad, and Knox are tight. If I spill this to you, even if my dad’s in jail, he’d be itching to get outand whoop my ass for being such an unfilial son.” He changed his tone.
“But, if you’re willing to be my date tonight, I might consider telling you.”
Without hesitation, Maja asked for the restaurant’s address.
She dressed up carefully and arrived there at seven in the evening.
The restaurant entrance was lavish and prosperous, with Greenfield’s important figures coming andgoing.
Samuel’s car arrived soon, and his eyes lit up at the sight of her dress.
Maja looked good with both light and heavy makeup, though she usually didn’t wear any. But on thatday, she wore light makeup, dressed in a proper ladies‘ suit that showed her sexy figure.
Even Samuel, who had seen many beautiful women, nearly had a nosebleed at that moment.
He thought lan was just wasting resources.
If he were married to Maja, he wouldn’t feel tired even if he made love with her three times a day!
The more Samuel thought about it, the more frustrated he became, and he walked towards Maja.
Seeing him approach, Maja nodded with a smile.
“Mr. Brown.”
Samuel looked her up and down, then said with exasperation, “lan is really wasting a good thing.”
Maja pretended not to hear him. Compared to other men, Samuel was relatively reliable. At least hewas all talk.
“Mr. Brown, shall we go in?”
A hint of disappointment flashed in Samuel’s eyes. This woman was just as hard to get as lan. Theyreally were a perfect match.
Realizing this, he found it even more challenging and extended his arm to her, signaling for her to hookhers through it.
“Maja, if I held your waist, you would slap me. But you can hold my arm. If I keep a distance from mydate, my friends will make fun of me tomorrow.”
She still extended her hand and hooked it through his arm.
They walked across the magnificent red carpet and reached the private room.
The waiter respectfully opened the door. Inside was a middle–aged man who was preparing tocooperate with Samuel.
However, sitting beside the middle–aged man was a strong and refined woman. Maja knew her verywell, and it was Maureen Raymond.
Seeing Maureen, Maja’s steps halted, and she subconsciously tried to let go of Samuel.
Samuel also recognized Maureen and didn’t expect her to be here tonight.
At this point, the middle–aged man had already stood up and introduced himself with a smile.
“Ms. Raymond is in charge of the Raymond family, and the Raymond family is also interested in ourproject, so I specially arranged this gathering tonight to hear Mr. Brown’s thoughts.”
The middle–aged man’s gaze fell on Maja, and he complimented,
“Mr. Brown’s date is really beautiful.”
Samuel originally planned to keep his distance from Maja because people from the Raymond familywere in the room, and he was afraid they would tattle to Holden Raymond and cause trouble for Maja.
But seeing Maja handle the situation with ease, he suddenly understood.
He guessed that Maureen probably didn’t know Maja’s identity.
In the Raymond family, Maja’s feeling like an invisible man.
Samuel smiled and said, “Yes, her name is Penny. She’s an interior designer.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, they all sat down.
Maja could feel Maureen’s gaze on her, full of obvious disgust.
She must have misunderstood that she was involved with Samuel.
That didn’t matter to Maja, her reputation in the Raymond family was already as bad as it could get.
Now they started to discuss an overseas collaboration project.
While in another private room, lan was sitting with the president of Silverstone Enterprises.novelbin
The tourism project that the Raymond family and Silverstone Enterprises were working on was notsmall. Due to previous problems with the construction workers, Silverstone Enterprises hoped to curryfavor with lan through this dinner.
Accompanying lan was Carlene Shepard.
Carlene had just mentioned it in passing and didn’t think lan would agree.
From Silverstone Enterprises, besides the president/Nathan was also there..
