Chapter 513
Maja was driving back to Rosewood Mahor, planning to have a week–long chillax there
Over at Pennyfeather Group Zoey was the head honcho and would report any funny business to Maja
The TV show Tyler invested in needed some time to bear fruit, so she could afford to kick back for a
while
BlueSky Bar
Tyler had his hand on Phelps shoulder, spinning some yarn confidentially
“lans not showing up tonight
Phelps was taken aback. He had given everyone a heads up about his leaving the country a month
ago, and everyone would normally drop everything to show up
“Something wrong happened
Tyler was suddenly all fired up
“You may not know this since you’ve been abroad, but lan’s been chasing after a married woman,
playing her boy toy But she doesn’t want to divorce her husband” Phelps raised an eyebrow giving
Tyler the once–over
Everyone knew Tyler was a scriptwriter, always one to put a spin on things.
“Tyler you’re talking about lan? Our longtime friend?”
What Tyler just spilled didn’t mesh with the lan he knew.
Tyler gestured to Fitch to fill in
Fitch was sitting in silence at a corner, casting him a look to shut him up
But Tyler wouldn’t listen
“He’s been pursuing a designer called Penny, who’s been working on his house. She’s a looker, alright,
but it seems lan’s not the only suitor. She has a thing going on with Samuel Brown and recently fell for
an actor. And guess what? lan, like a big shot, splashed out 15 million bucks to hire the actor she’s into
as the lead in my script. Only big–time players pull off moves like this
Phelps was staring blankly at his drink: “You’re not pulling my leg, are you?”
He could hardly believe it. It sounded like a tall tale.
Tyler gave Fitch a nudge “Say something”
Fitch downed a drink in silence. “A tad exaggerated, but not entirely false.”
During Phelps’s time abroad, he saw lan quite often. His face was always a head–turner.
Back on Wall Street, a woman had drugged lan and locked him in a room, trying to seduce him.
Everyone was looking for lan that night. When they found him, his arm was bleeding, and the woman
was tied up, her clothes intact.
tan was running a high fever and nearly passed out, but he didn’t lay a finger on her.
Phelps took him to the hospital for a checkup, finding a strong drug in his body–one of the strongest
available on the market.
For a regular quy, after taking this drug, even a sow would look like a beauty queen in front of them.
Phelps was surprised that lan could hold himself back.
He then wondered if his friend had some sexual dysfunction.
That was what those Wall Street guys were saying–that lan might have some issues down there.
After all, the woman who drugged him was a smoking hot lawyer with loads of suitors.
And now, Tyler was telling him that lan was the other man, even going so far as to make desperate
moves.
Phelps chuckled and put down his drink
“I remember Carlene is back in town too”
Hadn’t lan always had a thing for Carlene?
“Carlene is probably forgotten by lan somewhere. He even tried to force his way into that little
designer’s life, but she left the hotel crying. Even I saw it. At that moment, I thought lan might be off his
rocker”
Phelps raised an eyebrow The more he heard, the stranger the story sounded. He pulled out his phone
and dialed lan himself.
lan was still pulling an all–nighter at The Raymond Corporation Seeing the caller ID, his brow furrowed,novelbin
and he picked up.
“Phelps”
“If you don’t show up soon. Tyler will turn your story with that married woman into a book.”
laris face darkened
He was about to say something, but the pain on his face stopped him.
Every executive who came to see him today had been keeping their heads down, fearing severe
punishment if they dared to meet his eyes.
Now that lan didn’t attend the dinner, one could only imagine how much Tyler was running his mouth
But who was to blame for all this? Penny?
The more lan thought about it, the angrier he got He was still fuming from last night
By the time the overtime was about to end it was already nine o’clock
lan called Maja
Now every time Maja saw lan’s call, she felt like she had a headache.
“Mr. Raymond
“Where are you? I’ll come find you.”
She was at Rosewood Manor right now, but she didn’t dare tell him the truth, so she got up and left.
“I’m at RosenGarden.”
lan was about to say he was on his way to RosenGarden when she added.
“My hubby is back tonight, so if you’re coming, I’ll have to take a rain check.”
Maja had a chat with Nathan in the evening. Indeed, Nathan had come home to visit his family tonight.
lan was initially peeved, but at the mention of “my hubby is back, his anger was instantly deflated like a
popped balloon.
He suddenly couldn’t say anything. For a brief moment, he really felt like he was the other man.
