Chapter 1157
Iâm not afraid. The worstâcase scenario is that my company gets bought out by the Sanders family. Theyâve been
managing their own entertainment company quite well these years, and Mr. Sanders is a man of vision. He wouldnât
make things difficult for my artists.â
That was the worstâcase scenario
She looked at the drink in her hand, taking another sip. âEven if the Sanders family has any ill intentions towards
me, Iâve got nothing to fear. In the end, itâs just one life at stakeâ
lan poured her another glass, cautioning her kindly. âThe alcohol content isnât high, but donât overdo it.â
âWhat brand of wine is this? Itâs quite pleasant and suits my taste.â
âIf youâd like, I can have Jeff deliver some to your place at Rosewood Manorâ
âMmm, sounds goodâ
She lazily reached over, picking at the fruit platter next to her, popping a few pieces into her mouth.
The combination of this particular fruit and wine had a catalytic effect that got one drunk quickly.
lan held his patience, counting This was her fifth glass.
Maja felt her cheeks getting warmer. She frowned, lightly propping her body up in an attempt to alleviate the heat.
At this moment, lan reached out, gently massaging her shoulders
Hot springs, fine wine, delicious food, and beautiful company; anyone would be intoxicated
Maja felt somewhat dizzy, she had admitted countless times that lanâs face was the most stunning she had ever
seen.
In the dimly lit environment, the allure was even more potent, especially with his bare upper body. The cool
fingertips on her shoulder were a stark contrast to her rising body temperature.
Her gaze fell on his lips, they were thin.
Confirming that she was a bit tipsy, lan asked while continuing to massage her, âWhat do you think of my brother?â
Maja was in a daze, at times feeling dizzy, at other times feeling relaxed from his massage, her alertness
completely diminished.
âYour brother? Eric? Iâve heard of him from Grandpa Holden and my master. He seems quite outstanding.â
Her words were not completely familiar.
lanâs lips curved into a smile. He slowly leaned in, âIs that so? Then why is your phoneâs passcode his birthday?â
Even though Maja was drunk, she felt that this accusation was a bit too much.
âMy passcode has always been the same. Iâm just too lazy to change it.â
She turned around, her upper body lazily resting on the edge of the pool, completely relaxed.
âMaja, youâre not into Patric anymore, right?â
As he asked this, his fingertips paused, his tone a bit heavier.
Maja tried to look up but found her eyelids too heavy, âHeâs a bit off. He might have some mental issues.
lans mood lightened significantly. He picked up a piece of fruit and offered it to her, âWould you like more?â
The fruit touched her lips, she turned her head, âI donât want any moreâ
âShould I continue with the massage?â
âThat would be nice.â
lan slipped into the water, starting to massage her from the waist up
Maja felt something was off, but her dizziness prevented her from figuring out what it was
His fingertips were electrifying, pressing down on just the right spots
And this made her feel increasingly warm.
She yearned for something cool
She turned around, attempting to sit on the edge of the pool. It was too hot and she couldnât continue soaking
As she propped herself up and sat on the edge of the pool, she found herself facing lan
Upon seeing him, her breath hitched lans physique was impressive. He had chiseled abs, perfect Vâline, and
powerful muscles, with droplets of water trickling down his body.
She stared for a moment, then suddenly grabbed his hand, pulling him closer and leaned in to kiss him.
lan, being the gentleman he was, pushed her away. âThis isnât rightâ
âWhatâs not right about it?â
âYouâll blame me when you sober up.â
âI wonât initiated it.â

was referring to the kiss.
But as soon as the words left her lips, she was pushed down onto the edge of the pool. The kiss was urgent, heavy,
hot, as if theyâd been waiting for this moment for a long time.
