Ian was staring at a pile of paperwork in front of him, but his mind was preoccupied with her. the softness and sweetness he experienced the night before.
He didn't even realize he was holding the documents upside down.
Jeff, his coworker, didn't correct him. After a moment, he asked, "If a woman didn't object to sleeping with you, she must have feelings for you, right?"
Jeff was a workaholic and didn't have much experience with romantic relationships.
"Well, it might also be because the man was good in bed. According to the latest research, 80% of women are not satisfied in bed."
Jeff pulled out a report and laid it in front of Ian.
The dry discussion took Ian aback, and he didn't know what to say.
He pushed the report aside and turned his attention to the computer.
The trending topics were all about the controversy involving Simstar Entertainment, and several top executives had been implicated. Public opinion was at its peak.
After browsing for a few minutes, Ian closed his laptop.
He decided he'd rather spend time with Maja than waste time in his study.
Even just lying in the same bed brought him more fulfillment than work ever could.
So, he left the room and went back to the bedroom.
Maja was fast asleep. She was exhausted.
Ian carefully brushed her hair away from her face, studying her features.
Her long eyelashes, smooth skin, and small upturned nose were all pleasing to his eyes.
He lay down next to her, carefully pulling her into his arms.
Maja stirred slightly, turning over in her sleep.
Her back pressed against Ian's chest.
He held her close, rubbing his chin against her hair before falling asleep.
It wasn't until noon that Maja woke up.
She was sore from the previous night's activities and felt completely drained.
When she turned over, she was met with the sight of Ian's face and the part of his collarbone peeking out from his open robe.
She remembered biting him there the night before. The blood was gone, but the marks remained.
Startled, she almost dropped her spoon.
After finishing her meal, she began looking for clothes in the wardrobe.
Fortunately, Greenfield Gardens always had clothes in her size.
She picked out a dress but struggled with the zipper due to her injury.
As she struggled, a pair of hands reached around her and zipped up the dress. Then, she felt Ian's head resting on her uninjured shoulder.
"Leaving already?" he asked.
"Yes, I have a lot of work to do at the office."
"Will you come tonight?"
Maja blushed at the implication of his question.
She didn't answer, trying to push him away instead.
He whispered in her ear, "I'll be waiting for you tonight."
