Chapter 767
Seeing the two guys he’d singled out not budging, he pointed out another two from the crowd
“You two, go over there together, separate lan and her I want to see who she is!”
Beck immediately positioned himself behind Maja, her face buried in lan’s chest, utterly lost and flustered
Het mind was a mess, she had no idea how to react
Everyone present was speechless, watching the two men who’d just been fighting over a girl, now protectively
shielding her together
This was beyond belief
Holden was starting to get restless, his curiosity piqued
“Get moving you guys”
The four men didn’t hesitate anymore, some pulling at Beck, some at lan
Amid the struggle, Maja regained her composure and realized what was happening.
She lifted her head from lan’s chest, attempting to turn around slowly.

His grandpa wouldn’t let her off the hook
But Maja suddenly said, “Stop pulling
The four men halted at once, for her voice was calm, like a breath of fresh air in the chaotic atmosphere.
Majalooked up at lan, thought momentarily, then said, Tm sorry.”
lan was puzzled, wanting to keep hiding her.
But she removed the suit jacket from her head, then turned around and gave Beck, who was shielding her, a pat
Beck didn’t say much and stepped aside
Holden was initially seated, holding a cup of coffee. When he saw Maja, he almost thought he was seeing things.
Maja knew that today’s incident had blown up big time, so she knelt without hesitation.
“Grandpa Holden, I’m sorry”
Holden’s mouth gaped open, his eyes filled with shock. The cup in his hand dropped to the floor, making a loud
noise.
His chest heaved heavily, lost for words.
lan was also frowning slightly, and he didn’t understand why Penny’s words sounded so familiar She shouldn’t know
his grandpa
He walked up, intending to pull Maja up. He’d rather kneel himself than see her kneel in front of so many people.
But his grandpa’s following words made him stop in his tracks.
“Maja? What are you doing here?”
lan’s hand had just reached Maja’s shoulder when he heard this. His fingers instantly stiffened, and a strong sense
of unease washed over him
He opened his mouth and, after a while, lifted his head, his gaze locked onto his grandpa.
“Grandpa, what did you just call her?”
Holden was also slightly confused, why was Maja here?
Why was she in lan’s arms?
Didn’t lan dislike her? Why was he suddenly protecting her?
He couldn’t figure out what was going on.
But lan’s voice came again, this time colder
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“She’s Maja?”
Apart from Maja, his grandpa had never used the name “Maja” for any other woman. He’d heard this name
countless times but never thought Penny was Maja He was desperate for an answer.
Maja quietly knelt on the ground, feeling lan’s gaze on her
Those eyes looked cold, like a hawk, aloof yet majestic in the night
She lowered her lashes, then said to Holden
“I caused all these problems, Grandpa Holden, Im really sorry”
How could Holden let her kneel like this? He immediately stood up and walked to her side.
“The floors so cold. How could you kneel like this, even though I don’t know what’s happened yet, you can tell me
slowly, come on, sit down and talk”
But Maja dared not sit down.
lon watched her, a hint of a smirk tugging at his lips, his gaze making her shiver
She swallowed hard, quickly lowering her head.
