Chapter 1022

They were hardly a couple, and before this, they hadn’t done anything together other than the obvious.

The sudden switch in their relationship status was a bit disconcerting for Maja.

She had never been in a relationship before, always turning down potential suitors to uphold a beautiful promise she once made. Then came marriage to lan, and she had lived like a widow for three years, keeping all other men at a distance.

Even half an hour before lan’s arrival, she was looking up date spots for couples online.

But she had been swamped lately, not having the time for anything other than meals and work.

lan moved behind her, gently wrapping his arms around her. He sighed at the sight of the endless data on her computer screen. “You’re such a hard worker.”

Praised like a child, Maja felt a secretive sense of sham and a sense of satisfaction that was difficult to explain.

But most men can’t even do that right.

“It’s 6:30, time to leave.”

He straightened up with a smile, stepping back.

Maja grabbed her purse and followed him out.
