Chapter 441
After he left, Maja stood alone in the living room and zoned out for quite a while.
Only when her stomach started growling did she touch her face, feeling as though it was on fire.
She was even a bit out of breath.
She slapped her face a bit, then went to the bathroom to splash cold water on her face before opening the refrigerator.
But apart from some noodles, the fridge was bare.
Starving, she had no choice but to whip up a bowl of noodles.
After eating a bit, she washed her bowl and then the pot.
When she lay in bed, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Lan’s words kept echoing in her ears.
Maja was a traditional woman. It may sound ironic now, but before she married lan, she only dared to date those she liked, adhering to the principle of not dating before college, so she only set her dating plans during college.
Although no one to date ever came along,
Having spent her high school years in Crystalbrook Valley and being aware of her surroundings from a young age, the concept of self–respect for girls was deeply ingrained in her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen women were not liberated from these concepts, only by reading more books can they realize how narrow their knowledge was.
Carol always said, You have to live in fate, not in a relationship.
If men can do what they wanted, why can’t women? Since women can also earn money, why did they have to be housewives?
Carol, a real rich girl, shared many viewpoints with Maja.
Maja was always reserved in relationships between men and women. On her first night with lan, although she knew he was her husband, she still felt a bit ashamed when she woke up.
She always thought that this kind of thing could only be done by two people who liked each other.
But obviously, she and lan didn’t like each other.
She turned over again. Ian had just said her body was more honest than her mouth.
Indeed, she said she wanted him to go slow, but when he really slowed down, she couldn’t stand the slow stimulation.
The more she thought about it, the redder Maja’s face became.
It was so painful.

She initially just wanted to quickly end their entanglement, but now that it had progressed to this stage, slowly provoked by lan, she realized she seemed to be a bit obsessed with their affair.
This was not right. Especially with a man like lan.
Liking him was like a moth to a flame, courting disaster.
Maja took a deep breath and forced herself to sleep.
When lan returned to the hotel, he continued to deal with the unfinished emails.
Then he took another shower, looking in the mirror to see scratch marks all over his back.
Like being scratched by a cat.
He raised an eyebrow, his hair in a messy knot.
After the shower, he received a call from Maureen.
“lan, do you have anything so important that you can’t even see Edith?”
lan was very satisfied now; aside from the two marriage certificates that annoyed him, the meal tonight was delicious.
“I’ll go tomorrow.”
Maureen breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled, “As long as you understand, don’t tell Grandpa Holden about Edith and Maja’s matters; you know they’ve always been at odds; Edith only likes Selena in the Raymond family.”
When Selena first joined the Raymond family, it was all thanks to Edith’s strong support. Actually, lan’s dad liked another woman.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut that woman didn’t come from a good family, seemed to be a woman from a small county town, hadn’t received much education, and even had a boyfriend at the time.
Edith insisted at home, and although she successfully let Selena marry lan’s dad in the end, it also led to a rift between her and him. In recent years, lan’s father rarely returned home and was always on duty. ·
The reason the Raymond family had always been at the top in Greenfield was because they not only had a big influence in the business world, but lan’s father and brother also hold important positions in the military.
Edith liked Selena, plus Selena gave birth to two sons, both geniuses, so Edith was very satisfied.
But because of her husband’s coldness, Seiena’s mental state took a hit over the years. So when Holden wanted lan to marry a woman with no background, she strongly opposed it. But Holden had authority in the Raymond family, and in the end, Maja married into the Raymond family
Selena always held a grudge against the woman her husband once liked and started to hate these women who had no family background but good luck. Naturally, Maja became her punching bag.
“lan, Edith and Selena are in the same boat; you better stay out of the fight between women.”
“I get it,” lan said as he rubbed his brows.

Besides, he didn’t really care what treatment Maja would get.
It was good for Edith to give her some difficulties, so she wouldn’t think of any more underhanded tricks.
